Root canal treatment can be categorized into hot glue filling and cold glue filling in terms of root canal filling methods, and machine expanding and hand expanding methods in terms of root canal preparation.
Root canal treatment is mainly divided into three major steps: root canal preparation, root canal disinfection and root canal filling. The purpose is the same, the difference is that according to the level of the hospital and the local economic level, the treatment may be done in different ways.
1. Root canal preparation: The main purpose is to remove the infected pulp and dentin wall from the root canal, which needs to be repeatedly enlarged step by step, hand enlargement is to clean the canal manually by filing, and machine enlargement is to replace the manual work by machine, the latter is fast and efficient with good effect.
2. Root canal filling: Root canal is not a single pipe, there are many branches and divergences, the traditional cold cement filling can only fill the main root canal, while the hot cement can be pressurized through the flow, filling some branches, and better sealing.
Reasonable use of hot glue and machine expansion can relatively elevate the success rate of root canal treatment, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital stomatology department.
