Root canal treatment definition - root canal treatment represents the stomatology treatment which addresses disorders (diseases) inside the tooth (of nerve).
Root canal disorders – are those disorders that appear at dental pulp level (nerve) and are composed of inflammation or nerve infection. By performing canal treatment the inflammation and infection mentioned above are removed, thus removing the risk of complications and endodontic disorders.
Endodontic disorder complications – are generated by the failure to treat on time inflammation or infection at dental pulp level (nerve). If a tooth was affected by decay or has suffered a trauma (accident) and hasn’t received proper care, inflamed nerve from the decay or trauma suffers a biological degradation process. Following this process bacteria (microbes) are formed and toxins are disposed that enter the periapical space (tip of the root) causing infection. These infections can lead to a total compromise of the tooth which will have to be extracted. Therefore endodontic disorder complications represent tip of the root teeth infections, being one of the main causes for teeth loss.
