What are the conditions that lead to channel therapy?
Ductal treatment is primarily performed due to deep cavities. This structure is damaged as the tooth decay deepens and reaches to the vascular-nervous package called pulp which provides dental nutrition and vitality. The damaged pulp tissue is removed by canal treatment and this area is replenished with a biocompatible filler material.
In addition, even if there is no cavities, it may be necessary to treat the duct after the trauma because the pulp tissue is exposed, or because of other reasons, inflammation of the pulp tissue.
What kind of procedures are performed in the endodontics clinic?

In complicated cases, channel treatment procedures can be done under microscope and magnifying glasses.
Will there be pain after canal treatment?
After canal treatment, pain may develop especially in the region where the first 2-3 days of operation are performed. These aches are usually not severe, but relieved with pain killers. However, in rare cases, severe pain, swelling can be observed in the area treated. In such a case, it is necessary to refer to the treating physician again.
It is normal to feel tenderness when pressure is applied on the treated tooth. This sensitivity will decrease over time.
How long does the channel treatment process last?
The treatment usually takes 1-1.5 hours, depending on the subject.
Does the treatment last one time?
Your treatment may be single or multiple session. This is entirely due to the condition of the tooth. Since inflammatory, infected teeth require drug application in the canal, multiple session procedures can be completed.
How can I get an appointment for canal treatment?
After the clinical and radiographic examinations are completed in this department, appointments are made by the secretary in the department of Endodontics, for patients who have an appointment on the Internet from the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology (First Examination).
