Signs That You Need Root Canal Treatment
Does anyone need root canal treatment or RCT? Here are some signs that you may need one. In general, save for a few isolated cases where the symptoms are just outside the norm.

1. Pain doesn’t always recognize itself as pain.

If your tooth hurts at random times or your jaw feels different, that means something is wrong. Even if it’s just a heightened sensitivity to hot or cold food, this is an indication that something is wrong. If you’re feeling pain, there may be something wrong.

2. usthe pain disappears after approximately 30 seconds

If you noticed that the pain just disappears after 30 seconds, especially if it’s a new pain, then you should probably just rest and wait for it to fade. This is probably a sign that what you need is either an RCT or an extraction.

3. Darkening of the tooth

If you just had an RCT, you should go to your dentist as soon as possible. If you have a darkening of the tooth, it could be a sign that you have bacteria and/or a cavity that’s progressed to the irreversible stage. Either way, you should know to seek treatment as soon as possible.

4. Swelling of the tooth

If you just had an RCT, you should avoid swelling as it only makes the problem worse.

5. White or dark spots on your tooth

If you notice that your tooth has become a little tender or if it has dark spots, you should know something is wrong. This is especially likely to be the case with a new treatment, but it’s still important to see your dentist to be sure that everything is fine.

6. Foul or unpleasant taste in your mouth

Even if you’ve had a fill-up and you haven’t decided to forget about it, you should be aware that your mouth can develop a unpleasant taste that isn’t necessarily associated with your dental treatment. This usually means that you’ve got food particles and/or plaque build-up, and if it’s been a while since your last dental checkup, you’ll need to get on it.

7. Bad breath

This is another sign of an underlying bacterial problem. Unfortunately, our mouths are usually the last place we consider when we’re first introduced to dental hygiene, but forget, it’s probably the home we fail most in oral hygiene. Don’t discount bad breath because it’s not rare. Give your dentist a call and/or visit their office and make an appointment today if it’s not a red flag.

Dental CheckupsDon’t refresh your mouth every day with water. This encourages the buildup of bacteria, which is the cause of tooth decay. Instead, use a pea sized amount of water to rinse as often as necessary to keep your mouth fresh and healthy. This doesn’t mean you always must have water running though, but DO eliminate water bottles and refill your water bottle only with filtered water at rest times.

That applies to your sink too. Rinse your toothbrush in soap and water first to cut down on the buildup of bacteria and lessen the population of germs. Soap removes some of the soap, and the bacteria has no idea what to make it easier to rinse away.

How about you? Do you get enough time to brush? About half the population brushes their teeth at least once a day, and that’s not including the facewash. I’m sure those numbers would be higher if it was an additive.

Most people do not realize just how important their dental health is. They often use it as an Additional perk or spend it on a Trip. I’m not even talking about the fewer trips to the doctor’s office, but rather the extra treatments required just to stay on top of those red flags. I guarantee you that the cost of extra doctor’s visits is less than the cost of coming back for just one round of dental fillings.

One of the biggest reasons I found the need to hunt down root cause of my mouth was because I had forgotten how important Regular Cleaning was to Having fresh breath and feeling well.

Finding the cause of Bad Breath was a huge step in conquering it for me. Most people do not know how bad their breath is, and it is not uncommon for your Partner, Or possibly yourself, to be affected.

uds are made up of sulfur compounds

The more sulfur compounds that are produced by bacteria, the more you are likely to have bad breath. So it is important to examine what is causing your bad breath.

If you stick a spoon in your mouth and scrape the back and front of your tongue, it will be silent.
