As with sanitation of a tooth, arsenic kills a nerve: the definition and depulpation in the treatment of children and pregnant women
The development of the dental industry does not stand still, but nevertheless, dentists prefer a means such as arsenic, because of the patient's allergy to anesthetics of a new generation or in emergency conditions.
Arsenic, in turn, has the consistency of the paste used in the treatment to kill the nerve.After that, the specialist, without delivering pain to the patient, performs professional cleaning of the tubules, removing the pulp( nerve and blood vessels).
Determining the treatment of the tooth canals
For the accurate presentation of the procedure for the treatment of the dental tubules, the first step is to read the with its original structure .
Namely:
- Enamel.
- Dentin.
- Pulp.
- Internal channels.
Enamel performs protective functions, as its tissues have a high level of density in comparison with other coatings in the human body.
In cases where it begins to deteriorate, this process indicates the initial stage of caries.If you start to treat the tooth at this stage, then the treatment will pass easily and painlessly.
Dentin is the second layer of the tooth that protects the pulp, but under conditions of penetration of caries in the absence of proper treatment it is unlikely to withstand the negative effect of the bacterial process.
Pulp - the central part of the tooth, which has nerves in its composition with nourishing blood vessels.It should be understood that in the case of infection of this part of the tooth, a person begins to experience unbearable pain due to which the swelling of the gum arc( flux) and cheeks may develop.
In this situation, you should not think about whether it is painful to remove the nerve from the tooth, and urgently go through a specialized treatment.
The internal channels of the tooth extend downward from the pulpar compartment, inside of which there is a nerve that connects with the main nerve base.
It follows that the tooth canals are of the cavity of the root system of the tooth , in which the dental nerve is located.In a situation where the inflammatory effect is triggered by self-injury, which causes the pus to spread over the surface of the bone, then as a rule, in-depth therapy of the dental tubules is required.After that, the tooth is deculpated( nerve removal).
Arsenic depopulation
Arsenic is a fairly obsolete method of nerve removal, but nevertheless it is used in dentistry in some cases.
This procedure is performed for a longer time than when all inflammation can be removed in a single with a minimal risk of developing pain.
The entire process is carried out in stages:
- Local anesthesia( if tolerated).
- Opening the cavity.
- Stacking of arsenic-containing composition.
- Set temporary seal.
- Sending the patient home for 2 - 3 days.
- Removal of temporary seal with dead pulp.
- Cleaning tubules.
- Installation of a long-term seal.
It should be noted that arsenic is the poison of .Therefore, during this type of treatment it is important to strictly follow all the recommendations of the dentist - to come at the appointed time to remove arsenic from the dental cavity.Since this is fraught with the death of healthy cells of the veins.
Along with this, people are afraid to go for treatment, doubting that there will be pain at the time of the removal procedure.To this there is the answer - pain with correctly produced actions is not felt, that does not prevent to remove the nerve and put a permanent seal.
Pain syndrome is unlikely to occur, unless in cases of insufficient volume of arsenic injected inside, when a temporary filling lasts longer than the allotted time, tissue necrosis around the perimeter of the tooth or a doctor's error.
It is important to follow all the prescriptions of the dentist after the time-laying phase has been completed.Namely, do not drink or take food during the first 2 - 3 hours of , since there is a danger of detaching arsenic particles and penetrating them into the human body.
Do not think too long about whether or not to remove the nerve, because precious time is wasted.And not timely therapy threatens with the fact that you have to remove the whole tooth.
Arsenic in pregnancy and in pediatric dentistry
There are 3 risk groups that need to think about whether it is dangerous to treat the teeth with arsenic.
These include:
- Pregnant women.
- The intrauterine fetus.
- Children.
Pregnancy is a special period in a woman's life, when responsibility is not only for her life, but also for the life of a future child.Therefore, during the gestation of the baby and throughout the entire period of breastfeeding, treatment with arsenic-containing medications is highly discouraged.
Ignoring the fact that the composition is applied in a small dose, there is a negative possibility of getting toxic fragments of arsenic through the placenta into the fetus.Because of what, the is obligatory to warn the treating dentist about the state of pregnancy.
It should be remembered that modern dentistry owns the necessary number of harmless means without harmful arsenic to kill and clean the nerve without causing harm to the mother and child.
Arsenic treatment of children is performed in the same way as adults only if there is an allergic reaction.
The use of devitalizing mass is also recommended when the child has a strong fear of anesthetics in the injection form.
Along with this, it is important to note that paralysis of the nerve with arsenic can be carried out only in conditions of fully developed roots of , that is, for young children this procedure is unlikely to be performed( restriction up to 1.5 years).
If this condition is violated, the formation of periodontitis is threatened.
Restrictions on the use of arsenic for children
Many people are concerned about whether the time duration of arsenic placement is different for an adult and a child.The answer is that children need to remove arsenic after 16 hours at the maximum after 24 hours.
If the nerve-killing substance is introduced only into the cavity of caries localization, the duration of arsenic exposure is brought to 1 day.
Deadly arsenic is produced in both white color and other constituents of the palette.Because in the manufacturing process, special dyes interfere in the process so that dentists can remove arsenic without errors.
Typical mistakes of physicians
In such a difficult task, when it is necessary to remove the nerve from the tooth, the dentists allow flaws in the following situations:
- Low qualification level of the dentist.
- An exhausted state of a doctor.
- Use of obsolete tools and apparatus.
As a result, unpleasant consequences may occur, especially for the vitality of the tooth.
As a rule, these complications result from the fracture of the instrument leaving its fragment in the canal, as well as copious bleeding from the canal.
Due to this, a large number of specialists do not begin to remove the diseased portion of the pulp extractor.To avoid severe bleeding, dentists remove pulp with small parts of , periodically washing the channel with antiseptic agents.
Often a fracture of the tool is noted because of unskilled use of the tool due to excessive scrolling in the cavity of the tubule or from the use of unsuitable devices.
It should be noted that the actions to eliminate bleeding do not require a long time, while for extracting a fragment of the tool you will need the exact knowledge and skills of a specialist, as well as special equipment.
If for some reason the particle of the device fails to be removed and it remains inside the channel, then in the subsequent time threatens 100% removal of the entire tooth of the patient .
It is important to monitor the health of your teeth regularly visiting the dentist and on his recommendation to come on time for treatment, which will help to save health, nerves and contents of the wallet.
