Root canal treatment
Get rid of annoying pain.
Tooth pain is a difficult pain to bear, especially when decay reaches the nerve. That's why we, at Dr. Reham Lashin Center (Dento Lashin), have established a specialized department for root canal treatment using the latest globally used techniques and devices.
In this department, we focus on how to treat the patient and relieve their pain as quickly as possible, while preserving the function of the teeth to the greatest extent possible.
What is root canal treatment?
To understand root canal treatment, it is necessary to know some information about the roots and their structure.
The root is a fundamental structure in teeth that contains multiple channels housing the nerve responsible for pain sensation, as well as the surrounding tissues, blood vessels, and more.
Root canal treatment or nerve treatment
Usually, tooth pain is unbearable and sometimes it is caused by decay reaching the nerve, rather than being an external problem. In such cases, the dentist may resort to what is called nerve filling or root canal treatment, which is completed through three steps:
1. Complete removal of all contents of these channels.
1. Thorough cleansing of the channels.
1. Sealing these channels in the root tightly and completely filling them to prevent the growth of bacteria or other substances.
What are the problems that can lead to root canal treatment failure, and how can they be solved?
In general, the success rate of root canal treatment does not exceed 85%, mainly due to the inability to access the branching channels of the root due to their small size.
There is also another problem, which is the difficulty in completely filling these channels with the filling material responsible for sealing the root.
However, with technological advancements, there are now many techniques and devices used to achieve root canal treatment with unprecedented success rates. This is what we practice at Dr. Reham Lashin's Dental Center (Dento Lashin)Centers.
What distinguishes Dr. Reham Lashin's Dental Center (Dento Lashin) in root canal treatment?
Success usually follows certain principles and rules that, when followed, can lead to success and excellence. Among the important principles followed at Dento Lashin Centers are:
1. Availability of a specialized medical team in root canal treatment.
1. Working with the latest globally used techniques, such as three-dimensional root canal filling using injection methods. This technique has helped in tightly sealing the main and particularly the subsidiary channels, ensuring their freedom from bacteria. This allows us to achieve the highest success rates even in the most difficult cases in a single session without pain.
1. Following all the technological advancements in modern devices to facilitate and successfully complete root canal treatment.
1. Equipping the center with the latest diagnostic and treatment devices used in dentistry, including:
- 3D X-ray machine, which provides us with an accurate map of the complex nerve channels and their branches.
- Microscope device that magnifies the field of vision for the dentist more than 20 times, providing extreme precision in treatment.
- Ultra-flexible tools for cleaning the narrow and severely twisted channels, allowing for the first time dealing with these challenging channels.
