> What is root treatment? As you know, the tooth has two parts, the crown and the root. The crown has an outer part called the enamel and an inner part called the dentin. Right under the dentin, there is a chamber called the pulp chamber where the nerve and blood vessels enter that space from the root and are responsible for feeding the different parts of the tooth's nerves and enter the cavity or vein from the root. The pulp chamber, as long as the pulp chamber is exposed to microbial or mechanical factors, there is no need for nerve treatment. The tooth is exposed to microbial factors, first the tooth enamel starts to deteriorate... But if the decay passes through the enamel barrier and reaches the dentin, considering that the dentin is a weak organ against decay, in these cases the tooth is sensitive to cold water and even the dentist is sensitive to it. The decay has progressed and causes the decay to enter the pulp chamber and involve the nerves and vessels. The root and the space around the root of the tooth (bone and gum), contamination enters the space around the tooth from the end of the root, from here on the end of the root becomes inflamed and the inflammatory cells enter the pulp chamber through the veins and if treatment is not done, it causes the loss of the nerve, so the tooth becomes necrotic, or usually if the root is destroyed, It usually goes away.. start to It causes an infection, which is accompanied by an abscess. It should be noted that at the beginning of the nerve involvement and when the tooth is still alive, it is accompanied by very severe pain, and most patients who have severe pain at this stage, suspecting infection, start taking antibiotics. Until the infection becomes active and an abscess develops, there may be no pain despite the infection.. Therefore, in fact, a tooth that needs a nerve extraction is not always accompanied by pain, and since it is not always associated with pain, our intention is not actually to kill the nerve or to pull the nerve root at the end of the infection, but rather our goal is not to pull the nerve or close the root of the infection at the end, but to close the nerve at the end of the infection... from reaching the end of the root, where the risk of infection spreading from there is high... and in fact, pulling the nerve or removing the nerve are both wrong, and root canal therapy is the correct name for this treatment. Of course, in common terminology, nerve traction can be a more correct name than nerve removal... So it is better to treat most teeth at the very beginning because additional nerve problems cause tooth decay and they do not wait for more nerve problems.
