ROOTCANAL TREATMENT IS ACTUALLY PAINLESS
A survey has found that patients who had undergone a root canal treatment were seven times as likely to describe it as painless as people who hadn't had one.
The use of more-advanced instruments, such as flexible nickel titanium rotary files,digital x-rays,better disinfectants has reduced the length of the procedure to as little as 30-45 minutes.
Pre-operative medication and preventive measures need to followed for rootcanal treatment procedure to be painless and finally successful.
Regular appointment follow-up and visits will help the cause.
The anesthetic injections also has helped deaden the pain of root canals thanks to its unique ability to penetrate bone.
Root canals have remained common in recent years as more people try to keep their natural teeth as long as possible rather than automatically replacing problem teeth with implants."There's no better implant than your natural tooth,"
Even anaesthetic injections are not required as the procedure often is done after the death of the nerve in a tooth or because of severe inflammation within the tooth that's often caused by deep cavities. In other cases, they're done after a filling or crown is lost.
