Sobre el diente

Your tooth consists of two main parts: the crown, which is that part of the tooth above the gum and visible in your mouth; and the root or roots, which is that part of the tooth that lies beneath the gum and is surrounded by bone.

Inside each root is a channel that runs the length of the tooth. This channel is the root canal and contains the pulp (nerves, blood vessels, and soft tissue), que se refiere a menudo como el "nervio" del diente.

The pulp may be irreversibly damaged by bacteria associated with decay, very deep restorations, fractures, trauma, or periodontal disease.

In order to preserve a tooth in which this has occurred, it is necessary to remove the diseased pulp tissue.

Este procedimiento se conoce como tratamiento endodóntico. Dado que la terapia endodóntica tiene que ver con sólo quitar la pulpa del conducto radicular, the root will continue to function normally because the supporting tissues remain intact.

It is advisable to remove the injured pulp because it may become infected or act as an irritant to the tissues surrounding the tooth.
