“It is a fact that no substance or treatment can replace natural teeth, and for this reason, we must protect our natural teeth to the fullest by having them taken care of and treated on time.”
We see that in root canal treatment, the idea of dealing with the nerves of the tooth is the idea that scares patients the most.
We observe that those who have experienced root canal treatment once understand that this idea is greatly exaggerated, and that the fear of root canal treatment is generally found in those who have had a bad experience during treatment.
Root canal treatment is performed under local anesthesia to eliminate pain by removing the nerves and vessels of the diseased tooth. Otherwise, the tooth needs to be extracted. Targeted in the treatment; It is the three-dimensional cleaning, shaping and filling of the entire root space from the canal mouth to the root tip.
Of course, it is essential to work with sterile instruments in all these procedures. A root canal treated tooth looks like a normally filled tooth when viewed in the mouth.
After sufficient numbness is achieved in the tooth during the treatment, the most disturbing thing for the patient is the necessity of keeping the mouth open for a long time. The reasons why the mouth should not be closed until the treatment is completed are;
Root canal shaping and cleaning is always one of the most important stages towards the success of the treatment. At this point, the introduction of the rotary file system with electronic endo motors, which have a history of at most 10-15 years and are constantly being developed, has opened a new era in root canal treatment. With these motors, ni-ti files, which are metal memory files, return to their previous positions when removed from the canal, no matter how much they are bent in the root canal. A common feature of rotary files, which are used even in curved root canals due to these features, is that the files are made of nickel-titanium alloy. In short, the files we call Ni-ti are more flexible than classical files.
Due to these features, it provides the advantage of being used comfortably even in curved root canals. We can say that the treatment performed with endo motors and rotary files, which are technically new systems, is convenient for both the physician and the patient. The process takes place in a shorter time and with better equipment. Thus, the time the patient stays in the chair is reduced.
Of course, no matter what system we use, it is essential to work according to the rules of the technique.
