Why is The Endodontics Treatment Needed?

 Endodontics or Root canal treatment should be performed by a highly experienced and qualified Dentist when your tooth has been damaged internally from deep decay, disease, or infection. Our Dental Team is committed to professional development and we continually advance our knowledge and skills to stay ahead of changes in the industry. In years gone by extracting a damaged tooth was the only option. But with today’s modern technology we will make every attempt to restore your tooth to its original function. Family Smiles Dental is suitably located at 1011 N Hwy 77, Ste 105, Waxahachie is the best Low-Cost dental close to you

Root Canal Therapy treatment removes the inflamed or infected pulp from the tooth. As part of the procedure, the canal within each root which houses the nerve is cleaned and prepared to accept a filling material which eventually fills the canals where the nerves were previously. The procedure may take more than one visit and antibacterial dressings may be placed into the tooth in between dental appointments to assist the healing process and to reduce any inflammation and infection. It’s important to visit us at our Dental Clinic if you are experiencing any of these symptoms

                                          Taking Care Of Your Oral Health In Self Isolation

During self-isolation, make sure you are well prepared to care for your oral health. The pandemic is disrupting every area of our lives are currently, including physical activity. We can no longer simply go for a walk, visit the gym or play team sports, while the temptation is to sit at home and spend more time on the couch. However, physical inactivity is a major risk factor for developing a 
serious disease

Toothbrush Hygiene
Keep safe by making sure nobody uses each other’s toothbrushes and that they are stored well away from everybody else’s toothbrush. The damp environment of a toothbrush is ideal for spreading viruses. Use separate toothpaste as well.

Continue with Your Normal Oral Care Routine
Sticking to every day routines is important while self-isolating and particularly your dental maintenance routine. Make sure you continue to brush at least twice a day and floss once-a-day. If you 
wish, use a mouthwash for 30 seconds as this can slightly reduce the risk of spreading viruses.

Watch Your Diet
It’s a time when it’s tempting to indulge in snacks and Netflix, but try to limit your consumption of sugary or acidic foods. Instead, concentrate on eating foods that will boost your immune systems like 
vitamin-rich and nutrient-dense fruits and veggies.

Stay Active
Make sure you have some form of physical activity every day. If you can’t get outside, there are plenty of fun exercise routines online.

Drink plenty of Water
It is easy to become dehydrated and especially if you are fighting an infection. Some medications can reduce saliva flow too, so be sure to drink plenty of plain water.
