One of the biggest benefits of root canal treatment is that it prevents tooth loss. Root canal treatment provides a permanent solution to treat root-tip infections. This way there is no need to pull the teeth, it helps to preserve the naturalness of the tooth. Thanks to the root canal treatment, the infected tooth does not damage the other teeth and the infection does not spread. Pulp infection is the main cause of tooth root infection. This happens due to the buildup of bacteria in the infected area at the tip of the root. If the infected pulp cannot be treated, the health of the surrounding teeth will be affected. Bacteria continue to remain on the teeth. For this reason, it is necessary to remove the pulp in order to avoid the proliferation and spread of bacteria. A root canal treatment is applied to remove the pulp. Another advantage of root canal treatment is that, unlike tooth extraction, it cures the infection of the infected tooth and the jawbone is not damaged because tooth extraction is not necessary. When root canal treatment is not performed, the jaw bone is exposed to bacteria and the bone structure begins to deteriorate. With the advantage of root canal treatment, such problems are not encountered. Thanks to root canal treatment, oral health is preserved and the person’s quality of life increases.

What Are The Benefits Of Canal Treatment?
When Is Canal Treatment Done?
Root tip infection due to tooth decay is one of the conditions that require root canal treatment. As a result of damage to the nerve tissue or the pulp of the tooth, the tissue breaks down and the bacteria around the tooth begin to multiply in the root canal. The multiplication of bacteria and other caries residues cause dental infections or abscesses. An abscess is an inflamed sac and infection occurs when the root ends of the tooth have spread to the end. Severe pain is felt after the formation of an abscess in the tooth. Pain that wakes you up at night is often a symptom of root canal treatment. This is used as a differential diagnosis. Root canal treatment is applied in cases such as swelling of the face and neck caused by abscesses, sensitivity of the teeth to cold and heat, cracked teeth, pain in the teeth when biting or chewing , the formation of small acne-like sores in the gums, white swellings in the gums and so on. Treating the abscessed tooth will improve the person’s quality of life.
