If you are concerned about the dental nerves

On the question: "How to remove the nerve in the tooth?" And I want to answer: "Go to the dentist!" But, apparently, the person is either too hot or the clinic is far away, and the toothache is unbearable.

And, you know, there was a moment in my life, when I just wanted to kill the nerve in the tooth by the method of truck drivers. What kind of dentist, when you are on the track, and to the nearest village far? They say that they "treat" the dental nerves quite barbarian, in my opinion, in a way. Namely, these tough guys moisten the cotton wool with battery acid and put it in the hollow of the tooth.

The pain, they say, is hellish at the same time, but the nerve dies. The tooth, of course, subsequently collapses. It is well known that even acetic acid is harmful to the tooth, and what to say about the hydrochloric acid, which is allegedly used by these long-distance truck drivers. On the other hand, I also say that I myself wanted not only to kill the dental nerves, but also Tear off the tooth with pliers.

It is interesting that on the Internet there is even a detailed instruction on pulling a tooth with pliers. Even step-by-step photos are attached. Horror, right? The fact that the teeth is treated by a dentist today is hardly necessary for someone to explain. It's good that in my case the question was solved with the help of such a drug as diclofenac. I drank two pills and fell asleep, the next day two more pills. In general, the pain completely disappeared.

Dental nerves - pulp

In fact, the tooth pulp is an important organ, which, in fact, allows your tooth to be a living organism, rather than a normal bone. That's why we say that we have a toothache because it's alive. Theoretically, the dental nerves are removed only when absolutely necessary by the appointment of a specialist. There are really such cases when you can not do without removing the nerve.

Dental Nerve Removal

In the medical language, this procedure has the name - removal of tooth pulp. There is a need for this removal in the occurrence of an inflammatory process in the dental nerve. Usually this happens when caries are started. The inflammatory process changes from dentin (hard dental tissue) to the pulp. Then there is swelling of the dental tissues. These tissues, acting on nerves by squeezing, cause such strong toothaches.

The pathology itself is called pulpitis. It requires an early medical intervention, because it is no accident that patients with acute dental pain are taken without waiting. In advanced cases, the nerve can not be rescued and the depilation (removal) is performed. In the early stages, the pulpitis is treatable without removal.

Indications for depulpation

• The launched form of caries.
• Sharp pain.
• The appearance of a large cavity in the tooth.

There was a time when some patients were afraid of going to the dentist. And not without reason. Then the procedure of nerve removal was really more complicated than today. The nerve was killed with arsenic, pre-reaming the tooth, opening the way to the pulp. Then the patient left the office and walked with a temporary seal. As far as I can remember, this process was painful and took a lot of time. A couple of days later, the dentist removed the seal, removed the nerve and sealed the tooth.

Today, of course, everything is quite different. This procedure is performed not only much faster, but also almost painless. Modern dental clinics are equipped with the latest equipment, and the removal of the nerve itself is performed with the help of anesthesia. Now the patient, as already mentioned, almost does not feel pain during this whole process.

Prevention of pulpitis

• Careful care of the oral cavity. Hygiene.
• Timely treatment of caries.
• Modern dental equipment allows the dentist to remove plaque almost painlessly and quickly.

hint

If after the removal of pulp and tooth filling there is pain, do not get upset. Surely a doctor will prescribe some kind of pill, and she will definitely help you, but do not be too lazy to address him. I wish you health!
