Severe toothaches or persistent hot-cold sensitivity are generally the clearest signs that the living tissue (nerves) in the inner part of the tooth is damaged. Root canal treatment is a rescuing intervention that carefully cleans this inflamed inner tissue caused by decay or trauma, ensuring your tooth remains healthy in your mouth without being extracted.
Thanks to this "second chance" given to the tooth before making an extraction decision, you can continue to use your own natural tooth without any problems for years. After the inside of the tooth is completely disinfected, it is closed with leak-proof filling materials to prevent bacteria from entering again. In this way, the infection is removed from the body, and your tooth regains its aesthetic and functional integrity.
Who is it Suitable For?
If you are experiencing severe toothaches that start suddenly for no reason, especially waking you up from sleep at night, root canal treatment may be the most accurate and permanent option for you. If the ache continues for a long time while drinking something hot or cold, if there is swelling in the gum, or if you feel a pain radiating to your jaw, it indicates that the inner part of the tooth is infected.
In addition, if your decay is very deep and cannot be solved with a standard filling procedure, you can save your tooth with this treatment instead of losing it completely. If you have teeth that you cannot step on during chewing, that cause sensitivity, or that broke as a result of an accident exposing the nerves, this treatment will quickly give you back your lost comfort and painless days.
Step-by-Step Treatment Process
As Atlantic Dental Turkey, we transform this process where you will leave your pains behind into a completely comfortable, professional, and VIP standard experience for you.
Free Online Consultation
Our process begins while you are still in the peace of your home. When you send us your intraoral photos or X-rays, if any, our experienced doctors evaluate the condition of your tooth and examine your need for root canal treatment.
Treatment Planning
As a result of the evaluation, we draw the most accurate path for you. At this stage, we provide a completely transparent Turkey root canal cost report containing no surprise expenses, helping you plan both your health and your budget in the best way.
Arrival in Turkey
When you approve the plan, your health journey in Istanbul begins. The moment your plane lands, our friendly welcoming team is waiting for you at the airport. We safely transport you to your luxury hotel with our dedicated VIP vehicle for you to shake off your travel fatigue and rest.
Clinical Process
At your appointment in our clinic, your tooth and its surroundings are completely numbed with local anesthesia, so you will absolutely feel no pain or ache during the procedure. Our expert doctors (endodontists) meticulously clean the infection inside the tooth, purify the canals with special solutions, and close them with a permanent filling. Throughout this entire process, our interpreters who speak your native language are always by your side so you can express yourself comfortably.
Return to Your Country
Following your treatment, which is usually completed in just 1 or 2 short sessions depending on the prevalence of the infection in your tooth, you are completely freed from those severe pains that keep you awake. At the end of the process, you return to your country not only with healthy teeth but also with beautiful memories of a relaxing Istanbul holiday.
Recovery Process and Aftercare
After root canal treatment, those severe and throbbing pains, which are the biggest fear of our patients, completely disappear. On the day of the procedure, it is very important that you do not eat or drink anything until the effect of the local anesthesia wears off (about 2-3 hours) so that you do not unknowingly bite your lips or cheeks. It is a very natural part of the healing process to feel a slight sensitivity when you press on the treated tooth for the first few days. You will get through this situation without any discomfort with the simple painkillers our doctor will recommend for you.
It will be beneficial to make minor touches to your diet during the healing period. Especially until your permanent filling settles completely, you should avoid chewing very hard foods like hazelnuts, walnuts, or sticky foods like gum, caramel with the treated side. You should maintain your oral care without interruption, gently brushing your teeth twice a day and using dental floss. With proper oral care and routine check-ups, you can use your saved tooth as your own natural tooth for a lifetime.
