Do I have to wear braces for root canal treatment?

Root canal is to open the pulp cavity of the diseased tooth, use various instruments to remove the inflamed or necrotic pulp tissue in the pulp cavity and root canal, disinfect the pulp cavity and root canal, and use teether and other materials to tightly seal and fill the root canal that extracts the dental nerve to avoid reinfection of the root canal of the tooth, so as to prevent tooth pain and restore dental function, which is currently internationally recognized as an effective method for endodontic disease and apical periapical disease. Many friends don't understand root canals, and even think that everything will be fine after doing root canals, so do root canals need to wear braces? In fact, if the root canal is not protected by braces, it is easy to break due to excessive bite force.

In the end, it falls to the fate of being extracted, and then it is up to us to do it"Root canal**"The meaning and purpose of it. In the past, dentists still needed considerable experience in performing root canals** and relied on their limited visual ability and hand sensation to explore root canals. In particular, when encountering complex root canals, such as calcifications, small root canals, or root canal fillings that cannot be expanded, doctors are helpless, so that some affected teeth cannot be judged"Death penalty"And unplugging, it's a pity.

The front teeth usually have to bear 10 to 30 kilograms of energy, and the back teeth may have 50 to 70 kilograms of energy. If you don't do braces, it may cause tooth splitting, once the tooth splits, it can only be extracted, so the teeth after the root canal are usually braces to care. Experimental data show that the anterior teeth generally bear the force of chewing, with the anterior teeth bearing 10 to 30 kg of force and the posterior teeth needing to bear 50 to 70 kg of force.

The tooth after the root canal has lost a lot of dentisin due to the canal tooth before the root canal, and the tooth must be opened with the cavity when passing through the root canal, and the tooth is more fragile. At the same time, the teeth after the loss of lymph, blood and other nutrients, and become more fragile, at this time, if the teeth are not protected by braces, the teeth may be broken due to the force of the bite, so that the meaning of doing root canals is lost. In clinical practice, if the anterior teeth retain enough dentine, they can be considered not to have braces.

However, because the tooth will become gray after the root canal** is done, at this time, it is necessary to make a crown to restore the beauty!

It is best to bring, because after the tooth tissue passes through the root canal, the tooth nerve as a nutrient is removed, the structure of the tooth tissue is weakened, and the tooth will become more brittle.
