What Is Dead Tooth Treatment?
Dead Tooth Treatment is a dental technique designed to save a tooth that has lost its blood supply and become infected or damaged. When a tooth dies, the pulp inside, which contains nerves and blood vessels, can no longer support the tooth’s health. This can cause the tooth to become brittle, discolored, or prone to infection. If left untreated, the infection can spread to surrounding teeth, gums, and jawbone, leading to more serious dental problems over time.
Dead Tooth Treatment involves root canal therapy; a process performed by the dentist at our affiliated clinic to remove the dead or infected pulp and thoroughly clean the inner canals. After cleaning, the canals are filled with a biocompatible material to prevent further infection. Finally, a crown or filling is placed on the tooth to restore strength, function, and appearance. This approach preserves the natural tooth while preventing the spread of infection, allowing normal chewing and biting functions to continue.
This treatment is particularly important because it stops ongoing infection, protects the jawbone and surrounding teeth, and maintains oral health without the need for extraction or replacement options such as implants, bridges, or dentures. Root canal therapy ensures the tooth can remain in place for many years, supporting both dental function and overall health.
How It Works
Dead Tooth Treatment begins by a consultation conducted with the dentist at our affiliated clinic. During this appointment, X-rays are taken to evaluate the condition of the tooth and surrounding jawbone. Once the treatment plan is confirmed, local anesthesia is applied to ensure comfort throughout the treatment. The dentist carefully removes the dead or infected pulp from inside the tooth, cleans and shapes the root canals, and disinfects the area to eliminate bacteria. The canals are then filled with a biocompatible material to prevent further infection, and a temporary or permanent filling is placed to seal the tooth. In many cases, a dental crown is later applied to restore strength, function, and appearance.
The operation time for this treatment usually ranges from 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the complexity of the tooth and the number of canals involved. Benefits of Dead Tooth Treatment include relief from pain, preservation of the natural tooth, prevention of infection from spreading to other teeth or the jawbone, and restored chewing and biting ability. Downtime is minimal, with most patients able to resume normal activities immediately, although mild discomfort or sensitivity may be experienced for 3 to 5 days. Follow-up visits with the dentist at our affiliated clinic every 6 months is recommended to ensure proper healing and long-term success of the treated tooth.
