Endodontic treatment is necessary when the pulp, the soft tissue inside the root canal, becomes inflamed or infected. If the pulp becomes damaged through injury or disease and cannot repair itself, bacteria can leak into the pulp and cause the pulp to die. If a root canal procedure is not performed and pulp inflammation is left untreated, an abscess can form at the tip of the root and cause considerable pain. Even if there is no pain, the bone anchoring the tooth in the jaw can be damaged.
To treat a root canal, the dentist removes the inflamed or infected pulp, carefully cleans and shapes the inside of the canal, a channel inside the root, then fills and seals the space. Afterwards, a crown or other restoration may be recommended to protect and restore the tooth. After the restoration, the tooth continues to function like any other tooth.
I understand that in an effort to avoid extraction of the above tooth(teeth), endodontic treatment has been recommended. I have been explained the inherent and potential risks/side effects of the proposed treatment.
I understand the above risks but would rather have the restoration done and forgo the root canal treatment for now. If I do have an infection or discomfort in the area, I will contact the office for the root canal treatment at that time
