What Is Baby Nerve Treatment 

Baby Nerve Treatment is a dental technique that is carried out when the decay in a child’s tooth gets into the pulp tissue. Our baby nerve treatment can:

• Help reduce the effect of symptoms
• Help conserve the nerves
• Help avoid the possibility of teeth spacing issues 
• Help preserve your child’s beautiful smile

Procedure For Baby Nerve Treatment

Our specialist starts by taking out the diseased pulp tissue from the tooth. The two popular types of nerve treatment in children’s teeth are pulpotomy and pulpectomy. 

During the pulpotomy, our specialist takes out the disease nerve tissue within the crown area of the tooth. They then place an agent to help stop the growth of bacteria and relax the nerve tissues that remain. After the tooth nerve treatment, the tooth is weakened and requires that a crown be placed over it to properly support the structure of the remaining tooth until it is ready to fall out. 

Our pulpectomy procedure is done when the entire pulp is involved. During this procedure, our specialist removes the diseased pulp tissue from both the root and crown. They then clean and disinfect the canals, and in cases involving primary teeth, it is filled with a resorbable material. Then the last restoration is placed. 

What’s more, our specialists then ensure that a permanent tooth is filled with a non-resorbing substance. Your child might feel some discomfort after the procedure is over. It is also crucial that your child maintains a regular home care schedule to avoid the need for nerve treatment on any other baby teeth.
