Delaying root canal treatment when a tooth is infected can allow the infection to worsen and may eventually make it harder to save the tooth. 🦷 If decay or infection has reached the inner part of the tooth, timely treatment can help prevent further damage.
⚠️ What Can Happen If You Wait?
🦷 More pain: Tooth pain or sensitivity may become stronger or more frequent.
🩹 Infection can spread: The infection may move beyond the tooth and affect the surrounding gum or bone.
😣 Swelling or an abscess: A painful swelling or pus-filled infection may develop around the tooth.
🔨 More damage to the tooth: As decay progresses, less healthy tooth structure may remain to support a restoration.
❌ Tooth extraction may become necessary: If the tooth becomes too damaged or cannot be restored, removing it may be the only option.
It's also important to remember that pain may sometimes disappear even when the infection is still present. This does not necessarily mean the tooth has healed.
At Dazzling Dents Dental Clinic, Dr. Pankaj Desale evaluates the condition of the affected tooth before recommending root canal treatment. The aim is to treat the infection and preserve the natural tooth whenever it can be predictably restored. 🔍
