Root canal : Glasgow Dentists

Root canal treatment (RCT), which is also called endodontics, is needed when the inner core of a tooth called pulp, which contains nerves and blood vessels is infected through injury or decay. This infection may spread through the root canal system of the tooth and eventually leading to an abscess formation. If this root canal treatment is not carried out in time, the infection may spread and you will loses the tooth. The main aim of performing RCT is to remove the source infection from the root canal of tooth.   The root canal of tooth is then cleaned and filled to prevent any further infection.. 
For RCT you need two or more visits to your Glasgow dentist. On the first visit, the infected pulp is removed from the root canal of tooth and any abscesses, which may be present, be drained.  At this time temporary filling is done in root canal and the tooth is left to settle. On second visit the tooth is checked at and permanent filling is done.
