INFORMATION ABOUT ROOT CANAL:
A root canal is a dental procedure that is familiar to all of us
...
On the other hand, when asked about the passage, most of us, including
dentists, find it very absurd
...
a few years
ago, ancient civilizations used this method to save many teeth that would otherwise have
been lost
...
Peasants' teeth were normally extracted and then sold to aristocrats
...
They also
believed that there were many ways to kill worms, including rinsing the mouth with one's
own urine day and night
...
As time went on,
doctors proved that the easiest way to stop the pain is to clean and remove the nerve and
pulp of the tooth
...
The pulp exists inside the tooth and can spread into an
abscess if not taken care of
...

Decay is the main reason for the death of the dental pulp
...
Once it dies, the toxins from the decay are released into the root
tip and enter the jawbone
...

To fix this problem, the dentist will need to perform a root canal
...
Using a variety of tools and equipment,
he descends into the tooth and scrapes away the nerves and dead pulp
...
In most cases, the passage can take
several hours, although it is the only way to stop the dying pulp and save the tooth
