Blackened and rotten teeth are usually due to caries, which can be treated by local removal, root canal treatment or extraction by visiting the dentist.
1. Local removal: If the tooth appears to be blackened with light brown or black holes, it can be examined with a probe. If the scope is not too large, professional tools can be used to remove the localized diseased tissues, and then according to the size of the bite force, aesthetics, or economy, different artificial materials can be chosen to fill the hole in order to restore the tooth’s form and function.
2. Root canal treatment: The cavity of the tooth is relatively large in scope and has reached the pulp, so the pulp can be removed through root canal treatment. And anti-inflammatory treatment, after the inflammation is completely eliminated, then root canal filling, and finally filling. This process requires multiple treatments.
3. Extraction: If the root of the tooth or even the alveolar bone has been damaged and the tooth has no value for retention, the decayed tooth needs to be extracted and then a denture can be installed.
Patients should pay attention to their oral hygiene, and develop the habit of brushing their teeth in the morning and evening. Eat more green food in your life, and go to the hospital in time if you feel discomfort in your teeth.
