Dr. Sachin Rastogi DMD's Expert Contributions
What are the signs of a failed root canal?
If a tooth is having any kind of symptoms after root canal treatment, it may be failing. But sometimes failing root canal does not have any symptoms. These kind of cases can only be identified when your dentist takes routine x rays. READ MORE
Can a tooth affected by cavities be saved?
It depends on the extent of the cavity, which your dentist can find out by a clinical exam and taking some X-rays of the affected tooth. READ MORE
Is my tooth infection spreading?
No, it does not spread from tooth to tooth. But the second tooth may be getting its own separate issue. READ MORE
How successful is an apicoectomy?
It's hard to give numbers for the success of treatment, it could be 90% successful, but if it fails for you, it's 100% failure for you. But if the case selection is good and done by a good surgeon, then it's a good conservative option. READ MORE
What does endodontic retreatment involve?
Endodontic re-treatment basically is doing root canal all over again when it's failing. You won't feel any difference though, but it may take longer and multiple visits. READ MORE
One of my front teeth just chipped. How will this be fixed?
If the chip is really small, your dentist can repair that by using a tooth colored filling material, but if the chip is so big that that the nerve inside the tooth is exposed, you may need root canal and crown. READ MORE
Is a root canal treatment permanent?
If done correctly, yes, it is permanent. But it depends on a lot of factors. Like if the crown is leaking, RCT is not going to last for long, or if one of the roots is missed during treatment, RCT may fail. READ MORE
I have a cracked tooth. Does this expose me to an infection?
Yes, it may. The tooth has an outer layer of hard enamel, which protects the middle layer of dentin and innermost layer of soft pulp tissue. If the crack is deep it exposes the pulp to oral environment, which may cause the bacteria from your mouth to go inside the tooth and in the surrounding bone. That's the start of an abscess. READ MORE
How often should I get my teeth cleaned from a dentist?
Normally at every 6 months, but sometimes your dentist may tell you every 3 months if you have the signs of Periodontal disease like bleeding from the gums while brushing. READ MORE
