Caring for Your Tooth After a Root Canal
Proper care after a root canal ensures the longevity of your treated tooth. Follow these simple steps for the best results:
- Practice Good Oral Hygiene: Brush and floss regularly to keep your teeth and gums healthy.
- Be Gentle After Treatment: Avoid chewing on the treated tooth until the final restoration (such as a crown) is placed.
- Avoid Hard or Sticky Foods: Chewing on hard objects like ice, pens, or hard candies can damage the tooth or temporary filling.
- Attend Follow-up Appointments: Regular checkups at RS Dental allow Dr. Garima Rana to monitor your tooth’s healing and overall oral health.
- Consider a Nightguard: If you grind your teeth at night, a nightguard can help protect your treated tooth and surrounding teeth from excessive pressure.
By following these steps, you can ensure a smooth recovery and long-lasting results from your root canal treatment.
