This will stop after the procedure.How did it get infected?Maybe bad tooth decay exposed the pulp to bacteria, or you received trauma to the tooth, for example from a heavy blow.What will happen?The dentist will fit dental dam to keep the area free of saliva. He will then make an opening through the tooth to access the pulp chamber, and remove the diseased pulp. Then he will irrigate the pulp chamber and root canal to disinfect them. Then he will seal the area with gutta percha, and fill it as normal.How will the dentist restore my tooth?Your dentist may fit a crown onto your weak tooth. Teeth which have had a root canal will have a post to give it extra support.Will I need drugs?The dentist may prescribe antibiotics to prevent infection. ................
