Endodontics is what is known as "killing the nerve". It consists of removing the inner part of the tooth when it is infected. This treatment is carried out under anaesthesia and is completely painless.

It is a very widespread treatment as it is usually carried out when there is caries or internal lesion of the tooth. Endodontics is often used when preventive treatment is no longer effective.

If it is not carried out in time, the consequences can be loss of the tooth, infection of the blood or more severe pathologies. The main symptoms prior to endondontia are:

Inflammation of the dental pulp.
Sensitivity to cold or heat.
Discomfort when eating.
Possible change in the colour of the garment.
Dr. Anaïs Ramírez specialises in this dental practice. In an article published in Nart's blog, the doctor explained point by point how endodontics is carried out.

Diagnosis: When the patient comes to the clinic, the specialist diagnoses the state of the tooth and assesses the suitability of the intervention.
Anaesthesia: If the tooth requires surgery, the specialist applies local anaesthesia to the injured area.
Isolation: A perforation is made on the tooth and the tooth is isolated to prevent infection of the nerve.
Extraction of infected tissue: The infected area is then filed and extracted and the canals are cleaned.
Filling: At this stage, the canals are closed to prevent the infection from recurring.
Sealing the tooth: The tooth is sealed to prevent any infectious agent from reaching the filled area.
