Tooth Recovery from Pulpitis with Muyal Dentistry Toronto and Thornhill
Tooth Recovery from Pulpitis
Has the Pulp in your Tooth died? How do you know if you suffer from Pulp Necrosis? Is your Pulpitis recoverable?
Tooth Pulp is the center of your Tooth, containing blood vessels, nerves and connective tissues. If it functions properly, it keeps your Tooth alive.
The inflammation develops, and corresponding pain and symptoms are felt if infected through the enamel or root cracks.
What is the progression of treating the Pulp's inflammation and infection?
- 1) Pulpitis is reversible and requires dental attention to repair and seal; the Tooth with the Pulp can heal itself.
- 2) Pulpitis is irreversible due to the progress of inflammation, and the Tooth will not heal on its own. In this case, qualified dentists can offer remedies, like in Muyal Dentistry in Toronto and Thornhill.
- 3) Pulp Necrosis is when the tissue is dead.
Family Dentist or an Endodontist?
Only a qualified dental professional can ascertain if the Tooth is recoverable from Pulpitis through diagnostic tests. Many family dentists will refer the patients to an endodontist. An endodontist is a dentist with an additional training.
Dr. Muyal is a qualified dentist to diagnose and treat Pulpitis in the Toronto West end and Thornhill dental care offices.

How will an Endodontist diagnose Necrosis?
- 1) X-rays to see the Tooth and jaw structure
- 2) Toothtapping with an instrument will allow for a response to be assessed.
- 3) Heat and cold testing is touching the Tooth.
- 4) Electric pulp testing with a small electrical pulse to the infected Tooth. If the Tooth is alive, the patient will feel the stimulus.
- 5) Probing questioning of the patient if there is a sensitivity to heat, cold or sweets.
Treatment of Necrosis
If the Pulp tissue is dead, the Dentist should remove it. Potential complications are coming from a dead Tooth. The infection from the Pulp can spread to cause additional damage and pain to the patient.
