In most cases, a tooth in this condition causes pain, inflammation and swelling.<\/p><p>During root canal treatment, the patient is placed under <strong>local anesthesia<\/strong>. An access opening is created in the centre of the tooth, allowing the dentist to remove the damaged tissue from the internal chamber.<\/p><p>In subsequent appointments, the root canals are carefully <strong>cleaned, disinfected and fully sterilized<\/strong>. Once this process is completed, the dentist fills the canals with a specialized <strong>root canal filling material<\/strong>, which seals the space and maintains the interior of the tooth in a clean and sterile condition.<\/p><p>The procedure is completed with the placement of a <strong>composite resin filling<\/strong> to restore the tooth.<\/p><p>Because teeth that have undergone root canal treatment are more prone to fracture, additional protection is often recommended. For enhanced durability and improved aesthetics, the tooth may be restored with a dental <strong>crown, inlay <\/strong>or<strong> onlay<\/strong>, depending on the extent of tooth structure loss.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-dd8c082 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"dd8c082\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-f5c06f9\" data-id=\"f5c06f9\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-070349f elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"070349f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/dentist-komnis.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/dieu-tri-tuy-rang.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-8380\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dentist-komnis.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/dieu-tri-tuy-rang.jpg 400w, https:\/\/dentist-komnis.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/dieu-tri-tuy-rang-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-1fd3805\" data-id=\"1fd3805\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-21820f2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"21820f2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/dentist-komnis.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/aponeurwsh1.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-8381\" alt=\"aponeurwsh1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dentist-komnis.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/aponeurwsh1.png 500w, https:\/\/dentist-komnis.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/aponeurwsh1-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/dentist-komnis.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/aponeurwsh1-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Root canal treatment addresses problems affecting the nerves and blood vessels located inside the tooth and its roots, collectively known as the dental pulp.
