La Endodoncia es la rama de la Odontología que se dedica al diagnóstico, prevención y tratamiento de los conductos que hay en el interior del diente. Es uno de los tratamientos más importantes ya que permite evitar las pérdidas dentarias y mantener así los dientes naturales.
Dentro de la endodoncia existen 4 tipos de tratamiento:
El tratamiento de conductos, consiste en la eliminación del tejido pulpar que está dentro de las raíces dentarias, para mantener el diente natural y su función masticatoria.
Debido al tamaño tan pequeño que poseen los conductos radiculares donde se albergan los nervios y vasos pulpares, el tratamiento de conductos es uno de los más complicados en Odontología. Se debe realizar con un microscopio quirúrgico que permita aumentar hasta 32 veces el tamaño de una pieza dental, así como proyectar una luz intensa en el campo operatorio para visualizar el proceso con mayor precisión. Es un tratamiento totalmente indoloro, ya que se realiza con anestesia local.
¿Cuándo es necesaria una endodoncia?
Es muy importante realizar un correcto diagnostico, ya que el tratamiento de conductos o endodoncia solo debe realizarse cuando hay un proceso pulpar irreversible.
El síntoma más frecuente de proceso pulpar es el dolor, aunque lo más importante es hacer un correcto diagnóstico, ya que en determinadas ocasiones puede ser necesario realizar una endodoncia y no presentar síntomas de dolor.
