The aim of endodontic treatment is elimination of the causes of inflammation in the area around tooth pulp and prevention of the inflammation in the area around root apex. If these symptoms are eliminated, the tooth, which would otherwise be extracted would be saved. Endodontic treatment is also known as „tooth rescuing“ what you have heard so many times before.
If endodontic treatment is successfully accomplished, tooth funcion will be restored and there will be no need for its extraction. Many complications may occur while applying endodontic therapy, especially while cleaning root canal. Sometimes it happens that inflammation develops again with endodontically treated teeth. Symptom of newly developed inflammation is sensitivity of tooth when biting. Inflammation may develop again, even long time after the treatment – for example, a year later. Inflammation may be re-developed if the cause of the infection again gets spread to the dental root.
The spreading of causes of infection is allowed because the material which fills in the cavity gets weaker over the time. Endodontic filling treatment consists of cleaning the canal again, disinfection of root canal and its filling. Practically, the process which has been done previously is repeated. After endodontic treatment is completed, pains disappear and tooth function is restored. There is no dental clinic which can guarantee you that the inflammation will not re-develop, unless you visit your dentist at least twice a year for control or preventive dental examinations.
