A filling that has been in your mouth for many years can slowly start to cause trouble. For many patients from Maninagar, the first sign is a dull ache or sharp twinge under a tooth that was treated long ago. It can feel confusing, since the tooth was supposedly fixed.
Old fillings can wear, crack or leak at the edges. Bacteria then creep underneath and continue the decay out of sight, sometimes all the way to the nerve.
There are a few usual reasons. Fresh decay may have formed beneath or beside the filling. A large filling may have left thin walls that have developed a crack. In some cases, the original cavity was very deep, and the nerve has been slowly inflamed ever since. Teeth that have had repeated procedures over the years are also more likely to need root canal care.
We start with a clinical check and a digital X-ray, and sometimes a CBCT scan, to see how close the decay is to the pulp. If the nerve is healthy, replacing the filling may be enough. You can learn about that option on our dental fillings page. If the pulp is infected or inflamed, a root canal is the way to save the tooth.
The old filling is removed, the tooth is numbed with local anaesthesia, and the infected pulp is cleaned out using rotary instruments under magnification. The canals are disinfected and sealed. Because a heavily filled tooth is already weakened, a crown is usually placed one to two weeks later to hold it together.
Afterwards, expect some mild tenderness for a few days, and keep hard food away from that tooth until the crown is fitted.
Our clinic is at 402, B Square 2, near Double Tree by Hilton, Iskcon–Ambli Road, Ahmedabad 380054. From Maninagar, travel towards the city and cross the Sabarmati river to west Ahmedabad, then continue to the SG Highway and Iskcon Cross Roads. The clinic is on Ambli Road, a short distance from the crossroads. The drive is about 15 km and usually takes 35–45 minutes, depending on traffic. Book your appointment or call +91-990-964-4344.
