Introduction

Our Patient & Her Concerns

An experienced endodontist, Dr. Ashwin, in Magnum Clinic Dubai treated a 42-year-old business analyst who experienced severe pain in the upper left canine. The patient wanted to preserve his natural tooth at a low cost and with pain-free root canal treatment. Treatment was guided using the latest 3D imaging. After the procedure, a long-lasting zirconia crown was placed that made the chewing functions complete. The patient was grateful for the care and pain management.

Patient Background

The client had no major health problems; however, she had some previous restorative dental work. He complained that his tooth number 11 has been getting worse within two weeks, mostly induced by hot and cold foods and chewing. During the examination, the dentist found deep decay around the nerve and noted percussion tenderness. Painless treatment was an absolute priority in the case of the patient, as he had unpleasant dental experiences in the past. High-quality 3D imaging was employed to map the tooth structure accurately to achieve a proper course of action.

Diagnosis & Treatment Plan

Pulpitis had been diagnosed to be irreversible with an infection of nerve tissue within tooth number 11. Root canal was prescribed in order to remove the infection and save the tooth. Dr. Ashwin utilized an orthograde procedure, which was non-surgical and helped to clean and shape the root canals with the aid of a thorough 3D imaging. The restoration was to be fabricated with the zirconia crown that is strong in nature and provides the natural biting power. The plan was resourceful in patient comfort and clinical efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

Procedure Details

Topical and local anesthesia was done. Tooth number 11 was isolated using a rubber dam and kept sterile. Under the guidance of 3D imaging, Dr. Ashwin excised infected tissues with rotary tools and irrigation with a lot of care. The gutted canals were stuffed with gutta-percha and capped with cement. Proper management of pain secured comfort for the patient. Lastly, the zirconia crown, which was very strong and appealing to the eye, was cemented, and this restored the functionality of the teeth.

Treatment Timeline 

  • Day 1- Consultation which includes the IOPAR followed by the initiation of the root canal treatment (access cavity preparation , partial BMP and placement of an intracanal medicament) 
  • Day 2 - Completion of Biomechanical preparation of tooth #11 followed by obturation 
  • Day 3 - Measurement of the crown ( zirconia crown preparation )
  • Day 4 - Cementation of crown with post delivery instructions

Outcome & Follow-up

The patient stated that she felt the acute pain relieved as soon as the treatment was finished. There were follow-ups reported as fully healed and no pain or sensitivity. The zirconia crown was perfectly fitted, and the patient regained all his chewing functions due to clinical examination. Dr. Ashwin also suggested a dental check-up twice a year to check the treated tooth and the general health of the mouth. This practice prevented tooth removal and massively improved patient comfort and life quality.

What Our Patients Say

From the moment I walked in to when the treatment was done, the team at Magnum made me feel at ease. My root canal with Dr Ashwin was efficient and thoughtful — I’d definitely trust them with future dental work.

Patient Education

Patients are expected to brush their teeth at least three times a day using a soft-bristled toothbrush. It is important to avoid chewing tough food on the affected tooth during the period of healing so that it is not damaged. Limiting acidic & sweetened food is useful in safeguarding dental restorations and avoiding dental cavities. Routine dental cleaning and six-month check-ups ensure the efficiency and durability of the root canal therapy and zirconia crown. Following such steps encourages oral health in the long-term
