Removal of the root of the tooth

Removal of the root of the tooth (UKZ) is the most unpleasant dental procedure. It depends on the localization and the presence of pathologies, so it can be carried out in different ways.

The operation of removing the root of the tooth (radix dentis) should be performed by a professional dentist. The deep disposition of the roots and their deformed growth is a particular danger in the operation. If the root of the tooth is damaged as a result of trauma, improper treatment of the dental disease and this causes unpleasant and painful sensations, the UKH is rather complicated. Let's look at the basic dental indications for extraction:

• Destruction of the radix dentis of the tooth crown and the absence of the possibility to prosthetically repair the root of the tooth. 
• Increased tooth mobility and problems with teething. 
• Pathologies and complications from dental procedures and treatment.
• But in some situations it is forbidden to remove the roots of the teeth.

Let's consider contraindications to the operation to remove the root of the tooth:

• The rehabilitation period after a stroke or infarction, hypertensive crisis. 
• Diseases of the circulatory and cardiovascular system. 
• Diseases of the nervous system and psychological problems.

Removal of the root of the tooth with the above contraindications is at the discretion of the dentist. If UKH can not be canceled, the operation is performed in a hospital, for the possibility of rapid resuscitation support. At indications to UKZ, the dentist works according to a previously developed algorithm, let's consider it.

• Anamnesis collection - the dentist learns about the presence of allergic reactions to drugs, chronic diseases and other pathologies.
• Anesthesia - with the help of anesthetics for UKH, the doctor anesthetizes the site on which the operation will be performed.
• Preparation - the dentist exfoliates the gum from the tooth and bone tissue. This will facilitate the operation. Also the doctor applies forceps, which allow to destroy the ligamentous attachment of the tooth to the bone.
• Extraction of radix dentis, drug treatment of the hole and recommendations of the dentist to accelerate recovery.

Removing the root of wisdom tooth

Removing the root of a wisdom tooth is not a complicated operation, which rarely passes with complications and does not cause serious consequences. The whole procedure is carried out under anesthesia, which allows to anesthetize the affected area at the time of the operation. If after the operation the patient feels pain, then he is prescribed painkillers and antibiotics that relieve the pain syndrome and prevent the development of inflammatory processes.

The procedure of UKH can be carried out in various ways, which depend on the location of radix dentis, the presence of dental and chronic diseases. Before the operation, the dentist will learn about the presence of allergic reactions to certain drugs and antibiotics, which will be used in the extraction, treatment and anesthesia. The rehabilitation period after the removal of the root of the wisdom tooth can last from one week to a month and completely depends on the individual characteristics of the patient's body.

Removing the root of a baby tooth

Removal of the root of the milk tooth is extremely rare, since for carrying out this procedure there must be special indications. Milky teeth, as well as permanent teeth, have nerves and root canals. As the child grows up and the milk teeth change constant, the radix dentis of the first teeth gradually dissipates due to which the tooth begins to stagger and can easily be extracted. It is not recommended to remove roots of baby teeth before permanent teeth are erupted. But in some situations, the removal of the root of the milk tooth is extremely necessary. Let's consider in what cases the extraction is carried out:

• Inflammatory processes and the spread of infection. 
• Presence of a cyst on the radix dentis. 
• Tooth decay caries. 
• Periodontitis, pulpitis and fistula on the gum.

All the above diseases and processes can lead to the fact that the rudiments of permanent teeth will be destroyed. The root is extracted with the help of special forceps. The tool is designed for fragile baby teeth, so do not destroy them. Particular attention is paid to the normal growth of permanent teeth. Therefore, after the extraction procedure, the oral cavity should be rinsed with antiseptics, which will not allow the development of infectious and inflammatory processes.

Removing the tip of the root of the tooth

Removal of the tip of the root of the tooth is prescribed when an inflammation is detected in this area. As a rule, this happens because of improper or inadequate care of the oral cavity. Another common cause of extraction is the curved radix dentis channels, which are affected by bacteria. The extraction operation is performed by a dental surgeon. The doctor neatly cuts the tip of the root of the aching tooth and removes the inflamed tissue. After that, the dentist fills the root canal through the formed hole in the apex of the tooth and restores the efficiency of the jaw.

If after removing the tip of the root of the tooth can not fill the root canal, the dentist sets a barrier in the tooth cut. This prevents the emergence of infections caused by bacteria and inflammatory processes. In some cases, the dentist fills the hole with a bone-regenerating substance, this speeds up the healing process.

Removal of overgrown root of tooth

Removing overgrown roots of the tooth is a serious dental operation, which is performed under anesthesia. After the operation, the patient is waiting for a long course of recovery with droppers, antibiotics and injections. The operation is performed by a dental surgeon in the presence of an anesthesiologist, who monitors the patient's pressure and the cardiovascular system.

This extraction is associated with abnormal arrangement of the teeth, which break the dentition, affect and damage adjacent teeth. In the course of statistical studies, special treatment programs have been developed to prevent the ingestion of radix dentis. As a rule, after removal of overgrown roots of the teeth, the patient is waiting for implantation or prosthetics to restore normal functioning of the jaw.

Removal of the rotten root of the tooth

Removal of the rotten root of the tooth (UGZP) is a fairly frequent dental operation. So, lack of oral care, bad habits, such as smoking and eating unhealthy food, lead to the destruction of not only the teeth, but also their radix dentis. UGKZ is a serious and dangerous operation, on the basis of which the integrity of the tooth's body depends.

Sometimes suppuration is associated with diseases of the immune system or one of the internal organs. But except for possible complications, removing the root of a rotten tooth causes aesthetic problems. So, a tooth with a rotting root has darkened enamel, and the patient suffers from sharp pains and a rather unpleasant odor from the mouth. Note that rotting radix dentis is an irreversible process, which is much easier to prevent than treat. Regular examinations at the dentist, observance of oral hygiene and a healthy lifestyle are a guarantee of beautiful and healthy teeth.

Removal of the root of the tooth

Removal of the root canal cyst is carried out with the help of surgical intervention. As this is the most effective method of extraction, in contrast to therapeutic and drug "removal". Surgical UKK at a cyst can be carried out by such methods:

• Cystectomy - is the most reliable, but at the same time a complex method. In the process of surgery, the surgeon cuts the cyst with a sheath and removes the damaged apex of the root of the tooth. After surgery, the doctor sutures the wound, appoints the patient a course of antibiotics and antiseptic solutions for rinsing.
• Hemisection is the simplest method. During surgery, the surgeon removes the radix dentis cyst along with the affected tooth.
• Cystotomy is the average surgical technique. The only drawback of this method is a long postoperative period. Since, during the operation, the doctor removes only the front wall of the cyst and its contents, the remaining part is fused and treated medically, since it does not pose a danger to the radix dentis.
• Laser extraction is a modern, painless and highly effective procedure. During the operation, the cyst is completely removed, and the surrounding tissues of the tooth are disinfected, which prevents the development of inflammatory processes. Recovery after this method of extraction is very fast. The only drawback of this method is the high cost and the lack of necessary equipment in many dental clinics.

Complex removal of the root of the tooth

Complex removal of the root of the tooth is a dangerous procedure, which should be performed only by a professional surgeon. Let's look at cases that are considered extremely difficult to extract. 

• Curved or overgrown radix dentis - the shape of the roots of the teeth does not make it possible to remove the tooth, damages and destroys adjacent teeth.
• A destroyed tooth (under the root or below the gum) is a difficulty in that the dentist can not be hooked by extraction.
• Fragile tooth - this refers to the teeth that were treated with resorcinol-formalin method and because of this they became crumbled even under light pressure. Friable are rotten, that is, rotten teeth, teeth affected by caries and other dental diseases.
• Incorrect (horizontal) position of the tooth or its incomplete eruption - this case concerns mainly the wisdom teeth.

The difficulty of removal in all the cases described above is that the dentist has to cut the gum for extraction, which is extremely dangerous. Since it can cause damage or injury to the nerves and even fracture of the jaw.

Removal of the root of the tooth through the gum

Removing the root of the tooth through the gum is the most complicated dental surgery. This procedure is called resection and can be performed only by professional surgeons and only in a modern clinic. As a rule, this operation is performed when removing the tip of the root of the tooth or cyst. With the help of instruments, the surgeon makes a hole in the gums that opens access to the radix dentis and root canals. The dentist removes the root and safely seals the root canal. This is necessary in order to prevent the development of infection.

The main indications for this operation are:

• Presence of cysts and granulomas on radix dentis
• Damage to the tip of the root of the tooth
• Curvature of root canals
• Fixed teeth prostheses
• Inability to root root canal

But for this operation there are contraindications: acute periodontitis. Most often, the operation is performed on the lateral and frontal incisors, the front teeth of the upper jaw and canines. Surgical intervention is performed under anesthesia. For a speedy recovery, the dentist injects into the wound a reconstitution solution and special preparations that accelerate the healing process and tissue regeneration. After this, the gum is sutured, and the tooth, if necessary, is fixed with a crown.

Feedback on the removal of the root of the tooth

Numerous positive responses on the removal of the root of the tooth suggest that this operation can have a positive result. So, special complication during extraction are pathologies in the growth of radix dentis, chronic dental diseases and problems with the cardiovascular or circulatory system.

But positive feedback on the removal of the root of the tooth is based on the professional work of dentists and surgeons. The physician should correctly diagnose the problem, effectively perform the operation (choosing the least traumatic method) and prescribe effective restorative treatment during the rehabilitation period. All this suggests that the success of the operation depends more on the professionalism of the dentist and the clinic in which the surgical treatment is performed.

The price of root extraction

The price of removing the roots of the teeth depends on the complexity of the operation and the method. So, a simple extraction in a private dental clinic costs from 300 UAH. And if you need to superimpose sutures and draw up a plan for postoperative recovery, the cost may increase up to 1500 hryvnia. The cost of removing the roots of teeth in the state dental clinic is much lower. But, do not forget that as a rule, in such institutions there is no necessary modern technology (laser for painless extraction, etc.) for the most effective treatment. The final choice of the treatment option and the price can be said only by the dentist, after the examination. By the way, it is the dentist who will recommend a clinic or a hospital for extraction of teeth, which will suit the patient's monetary possibilities.

Removing the roots of the teeth is an unpleasant and often complicated procedure that requires the work of a professional dentist. The earlier the problem is diagnosed, the higher the chances that the tooth extraction will pass without complications, and the recovery will be rapid.
