There are some who say that having root canals treated will cause illnesses and that it’s better to simply have your tooth removed. This is based on outdated research from the 1920’s that has long since been debunked. Many beliefs about medicine held a century have since been proven not to be true, and the idea that root canals will make you sick is one of them. There is no valid scientific research that links root canals to increased risk of disease.

Knowing when you need a root canal is a vital step in ensuring that you can obtain the dental services that you need before the problem escalates and requires extraction or more intensive dental work. Unlike many other parts of your body, teeth cannot heal themselves naturally. Thus, getting a root canal allows you to keep your natural teeth by removing the infection that would otherwise continue to spread.

Apicoectomy is the standard term for endodontic surgery. This method is generally used as a last resort to save a tooth that has proven to be unresponsive to root canal therapy and endodontic retreatment. It is a complex procedure that may require extensive recovery times in order to protect the health of the teeth.

There are many reasons that a tooth that has been treated with a root canal may experience repeated issues. After a tooth has undergone a root canal treatment, the pulp has been removed from the inside of the tooth. This means that another root canal simply isn’t an option for the same tooth. However, endodontic retreatment can be used to offer a second chance for the tooth to be saved.

Prevention is generally the best approach to take when it comes to cracked teeth. Ensure that you wear a mouth guard whenever you participate in sports. You should also refrain from using your teeth to open things, as well as avoid biting down on hard objects. If you have issues with clenching or grinding your teeth, you should consult your dentist to obtain an appropriate mouth guard.

Cold sensitivity can be a symptom of more than just seasonal discomfort. Winter may make the following dental problems more noticeable:

- Receding gums, as this exposes sensitive tooth roots
- Tooth decay, which allows cold to reach the inner layers of the tooth
- Cracked or fractured teeth, which allow temperature changes reach the nerve
- Worn enamel from grinding, acidic foods, or aggressive brushing
- Old or failing fillings, which may no longer seal the tooth properly
