Urgent root canal treatment

Acute pulpitis is one of the most severe pains known to dentistry. Urgent root canal treatment, meaning immediate opening and preparation of the tooth under anesthesia, brings quick relief and saves the tooth.

When urgent root canal treatment is necessary

An alarm signal is a strong, throbbing toothache that worsens at night and under the influence of heat, radiates to the ear or temple, and does not subside after painkillers. This is how irreversible pulpitis manifests, most commonly caused by deep cavities. In such a situation, the only effective treatment is to open the tooth and remove the inflamed pulp.

How the procedure is carried out at Mabel Clinic

After an examination and an X-ray, we administer effective anesthesia and open the tooth, removing the source of pain, which is the inflamed pulp. The canals are initially shaped and disinfected, and the tooth is tightly sealed with a temporary filling. Relief usually comes while you are still in the chair. We complete the treatment as planned during the next visit, permanently filling the canals under calm conditions.

What after an urgent intervention

After an emergency visit, the pain subsides, and only sensitivity when biting may persist for a few days. It is crucial to complete the root canal treatment on schedule, as the tooth with the dressing remains only temporarily protected. After the root canals are tightly filled, we plan a permanent restoration: a filling, a fiberglass post, or a crown.
