ROOT CANAL TREATMENT IN PORT HARCOURT
The idea of root canal treatment tends to scare people, but this procedure has a lot of benefits, and thanks to modern care techniques and technology, it’s not as uncomfortable as you might think.
Sensitivity should subside after a few days.
Take your prescribed medication as directed. Because a temporary filling is on the tooth, do not bite hard for one hour after your appointment. Once the permanent filling is in place, chew carefully on the opposite side of your mouth.
Do not bite your lip/cheeks or scrape your gums. Children should be watched carefully to make sure they don’t do this. It will damage soft tissues and result in pain.
Sensitivity to cold and heat, as well as any soreness, should go away in a few days.
Brush and floss gently.
Do warm saline mouth bath 8 times daily for 2 weeks.( i.e first thing when you wake in the morning, before and after breakfast,before and after lunch,before and after dinner and last thing at night before you sleep).

The root canal is the passageway that runs from each tip of your dental roots through the tooth. This is where the nerve is located. Root canal treatment is called for when an infection has reached the pulp in the inner chamber. Infections like this can threaten the life of your tooth, eventually calling for extraction if untreated. Pain, sensitivity, and eventual abscesses are side effects of root canal infections. With root canal therapy, we can clear up the infection and prevent more complicated problems.
During root canal therapy, the dentist will clear a way through the top of your tooth to the root canal(s). Through this opening, the dentist will then clean out infected pulp tissue, detoxifying the root canal chamber. A medication may be applied, and the chamber will be filled. A crown or filling is placed on the tooth when the procedure is finished.
