summary

The range of endodontic disease is relatively wide. What I suffered from before was pulpitis, and the pain was unbearable. Let's see what endodontic disease is.

What is endodontic disease

First of all, pulp disease is a disease of pulp tissue, including pulpitis, pulp necrosis and pulp degeneration. Pulp tissue is in the tooth hard tissue, only through the apical foramen, accessory root canal contact with the outside world, pulp acute inflammation, vascular congestion, exudate accumulation, resulting in increased pressure in the pulp cavity, so that nerve compression, inflammatory exudate stimulation and pain is extremely severe.

Secondly, pulp disease can be divided into acute, chronic, pulp degeneration, pulp necrosis and gangrene. In acute stage, the pain is severe and intolerable, which is characterized by spontaneous pain, paroxysmal pain and nocturnal pain. It can also appear continuous jumping pain and dispersing pain, which can be diffused to the ear and temporal part, similar to migraine. Patients with disease attack are restless and pulpitis obviously affects their sleep, work and study. When the disease is found, it is best to see a doctor in time and take appropriate measures to control the disease.

Finally: the most effective treatment of acute pulpitis is to immediately open the pulp drainage, so that the inflammatory products and pus flow out, reduce the pressure in the pulp cavity, and quickly relieve the pain. Pulpitis teeth should be operated to remove the pulp to achieve the purpose of preserving the teeth. Without proper treatment, pulpitis can develop into apical abscess, or even skull osteomyelitis, and the teeth can only be extracted.
