Root canal treatments

Inside the teeth, in the root canals, very fine blood vessels and nerves run, which supply the tooth with important nutrients and feeling. In this way the tooth can defend itself against external influences, partially regenerate and become noticeable in the event of imminent damage. The teeth have different root canals, incisors e.g. one, molars up to four or five.

A root canal treatment becomes necessary if the tooth nerve is attacked and inflamed. One of the causes of this can be deep caries. The consequences range from unpleasant pain to tooth loss if such an inflammation remains untreated.

Your Dr. Blume practice in Mainz offers you a modern and effective root canal treatment in such a case. The affected tooth is first opened. The root canals are thoroughly cleaned and disinfected so that all bacteria responsible for the inflammation are killed. A special filling material ensures that the tooth is well protected against bacterial attacks in the future, down to the finest branches of the tooth root.

This not only enables us to preserve your tooth, but also protects it from possible new bacterial infections through thorough cleaning and sealing.

Long-term tooth preservation is an important aspect for us to preserve your oral health and a good body feeling in the long term.
