Root Canal Treatment

Root canal treatment is a treatment method used to remove infected or damaged nerves and blood vessels from the inside of a tooth. At Avcılar Dentist Deniz Akın, we perform root canal treatment using state-of-the-art technology, prioritizing the comfort and health of our patients. Root canal treatment is a solution chosen before tooth extraction, aiming to preserve the tooth and ensure its long-term use.

​

Root canal treatment is typically performed to address deep decay, trauma, or infection in a tooth. During treatment, the nerves are accessed, infected tissue is removed, and the interior of the tooth is disinfected. The cavity is then filled with a special filling material, restoring the tooth's function and strength.

​

The main advantage of root canal treatment is that it preserves the tooth and allows it to maintain its natural function. Without treatment, an infection in the root canals could lead to tooth loss. Root canal treatment extends the lifespan of the tooth, allowing the patient to use it comfortably.

​

The treatment process is completed in several steps. In the first step, the inside of the tooth is cleaned and disinfected. The second stage concludes with the placement of the filling material. After root canal treatment, a filling is usually placed on the tooth. Sometimes, a crown (covering) may be necessary to further protect the tooth after treatment.

​

The success of root canal treatment depends on the experience of the treating specialist and the quality of the materials used. At Avcılar Dentist Deniz Akın, we maximize the success rate with the equipment and materials used in root canal treatment. We also offer pain management and anesthesia options to ensure patient comfort during treatment.

​

Our patients' recovery from treatment is generally quick and uneventful. When performed correctly, root canal treatment provides a durable and functional solution for many years. This prevents tooth loss and preserves natural tooth function.
