Dental Emergency – Root Canal Troy MI

Posted November 6th, 2011 by Dr. Rob Hubbard and filed in Dental Emergency, Root Canal

In the past, if you had a tooth with a diseased nerve, you’d probably lose that tooth. Today, with a special dental procedure called root canal treatment, you may save that tooth.

Inside each tooth is both the pulp and the nerve. The nerve is the vestige of the tissue that originally formed the tooth. Once the tooth has been in the mouth for a time, the functioning of the nerve is no longer necessary.

When a tooth is cracked or has a deep cavity, bacteria can enter the pulp. Germs can cause an infection inside the tooth. Left without treatment, pus builds up at the root tip in the jawbone, forming a “pus-pocket” called an abscess. An abscess can cause the pulp tissue to die. When the infected pulp is not removed, pain and swelling can result. Certain byproducts of the infection can injure your jawbones and your overall health. Without treatment, your tooth may have to be removed.

Treatment often involves from one to three visits. During treatment, your general dentist or endodontist (a dentist who specializes in problems of the pulp) removes the diseased pulp. Next the pulp chamber and root canal(s) of the tooth are cleaned and sealed. Often posterior teeth that have endodontic treatment should have a cast crown placed in order to strengthen the remaining structure. Then, as long as you to continue to care for your teeth and gums with regular brushing, flossing, and checkups so that the root(s) of the restored tooth are nourished by the surrounding tissues, your restored tooth can last a lifetime.

Most of the time a root canal is a relatively simple procedure with little or no discomfort, involving one to three visits. Best of all, it can save your tooth and your smile!

Oral Hygiene and our overall health

Posted March 3rd, 2011 by Dr. Rob Hubbard and filed in Uncategorized

Healthy Lifestyle includes good oral hygiene & nutrition.  Many people are surprised to learn the strong connection between the two.   For example; the bacteria that grow in our mouths, if not controlled through proper oral hygiene, end up traveling through our bodies; thus causing numerous health problems; such as gum disease, heart disease, digestion problems, and many other known conditions. 

 Coming in for routine cleanings and exams with your hygienist and dentist can help reduce the possibility of the occurrence of such health problems.  So stay on target with your cleanings and check-ups to promote your overall well being!
