Root canal therapy (RCT) followed by a crown is the most common mode of treatment for severely decayed teeth. However, this is not devoid of failure. In another case, if a tooth could not be salvaged by RCT, then extraction followed by a bridge (replacing the removed tooth with support from adjacent healthy teeth) became the next best option.

In both cases, especially latter, healthy teeth are being manipulated to support the tooth being replaced. The next quest was to work without touc...more

हमारे दाँतों में तीन परतें होती हैं, इनमें से दो परतें सॉलिड होती हैं जो चबाने में सहायक होती हैं, जबकि तीसरी और निचली परत मुलायम होती है. दाँत का सबसे निचले नरम हिस्सा दाँत का पल्प होता है जो एक सोफ्ट टिश्यू है जिसमें नसें और छोटी ब्लड वेसल्स होती हैं. यह पल्प क्राउन के साथ-साथ रूट कैनाल में भी मौजूद होता है. रूट कैनाल एक ट्यूब होती है जो दाँतों के जड़ में मौजूद होती है. जब दाँतों के बाहरी दो परतें में बैक्टीरियल इन्फेक्शन या फ्रैक्चर हो जाती हैं, तो इससे आपके दाँत के पल्प में सूजन और इन्फेक्शन ...more

A root canal is a treatment to repair and save a badly damaged or infected tooth. The procedure involves removing the damaged area of the tooth (the pulp), cleaning and disinfecting it and then filling and sealing it. The common causes affecting the pulp are a cracked tooth, a deep cavity, repeated dental treatment to the tooth or trauma. The term "root canal" comes from cleaning of the canals inside the tooth's root.

Millions of teeth are treated and saved each year with root canal, or...more
