Endodontic treatment, also known as root canal treatment, is the process of removing the pulp tissue located inside the tooth that has become inflamed or infected due to various reasons, then cleaning, shaping, and filling the root canal space with biocompatible filling materials. It is commonly referred to as 'root canal treatment'.
Before starting the treatment, a detailed radiographic (X-ray) examination is performed to determine the root anatomy of the tooth and the extent of any potential infection.
For a successful root canal treatment, access is gained to the tooth's root canals, the damaged pulp tissue is completely removed, and the root canals are meticulously shaped to be suitable for receiving the filling material.
Following this stage, the root canals are thoroughly cleaned and sterilized to prevent the spread of bacteria and other harmful microorganisms.
Finally, the cleaned and shaped root canals are hermetically sealed with special filling materials, and the effectiveness of the treatment is checked radiographically.
