Diagnosis

Clinical and radiographic examination led to the diagnosis of irreversible pulpitis.

This diagnosis indicated that root canal treatment was required to address the condition of the tooth and preserve it.

Root Canal Treatment

Endodontic treatment was carried out under local anesthesia and rubber dam isolation.

During the procedure, five root canals were identified in tooth 36. The canals were thoroughly cleaned, shaped, and obturated as part of the root canal treatment.

Restoration After Endodontic Treatment

After the endodontic procedure was completed, the tooth was restored with a composite build-up.

The tooth was then prepared for full coronal coverage, and a crown was placed to restore function and protect the remaining tooth structure.

Treatment Outcome

The treatment plan included root canal treatment, composite build-up, and subsequent crown restoration.

This sequence allowed the tooth to be restored after endodontic treatment and provided full coronal coverage for functional protection.

Endodontic Care at DentalDate

Severe tooth pain may require prompt examination to determine whether the pulp and root canal system are involved. At DentalDate, the dentist assesses the clinical and radiographic findings before planning treatment.

When root canal treatment is indicated, the restoration plan is considered as part of the same clinical process. Depending on the condition of the tooth, this may include a composite build-up and crown coverage to restore function and protect the remaining tooth structure.
