Do Root Canals Fail?
When a tooth develops an infection, treatment is necessary. Without care, the tooth could essentially die. At this stage, the tooth may require extraction. Otherwise, the infection moves into other parts of the smile. Often, the ideal treatment for an infected tooth is root canal therapy. This procedure is effective, but sometimes a root canalled tooth becomes infected again, and retreatment could be needed. You may need to find one of our Kalifornsky emergency dentists for a root canal retreatment.
A root canal involves removing the tissues from the inside and root canals. The interiors and root canals are cleaned with care, and a restorative material known as gutta-percha is then added to the tooth. Often, the tooth is then capped with a porcelain crown. The restoration is often custom-made to protect the tooth and also blend with the smile. But if there are complications with the procedure, the health of the tooth could be questionable. The tooth could begin developing symptoms, such as toothaches and pain when eating. If you experience this, do not risk tooth loss.
