This procedure involves cleaning teeth that have lost their shape due to decay, fractures, or cracks, and restoring them with “composite resin” without damaging healthy tissue.
Why Composite Fillings?
Unlike the black (amalgam) fillings used in the past, composite fillings are selected to match the exact shade of your natural tooth color. From the outside, you can’t tell there’s a filling there.
Fast and Durable:
It is cured with a special light during the same session and is immediately ready for use.
Root canal treatment is a procedure performed when the “nerve and blood vessel tissue” (pulp) inside the tooth becomes inflamed or damaged.
Why is it done?
To relieve severe tooth pain
To stop the infection
To save the tooth without extracting it
How is it done?
· The decayed or infected portion is removed
· The nerve tissue inside the tooth is removed
· The root canal is disinfected (cleaned)
· The empty space is filled with a special filling material
· A filling or crown is typically placed over it
