The talk, titled "Understanding Root Canal Therapy and Dental Hygiene," delved into various aspects of dental health and hygiene.
Dr. Veena Krishnan, who holds a Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) degree, followed by specialization in Oral Implantology, brought her extensive knowledge and expertise to the session. With a decade of professional experience, she is highly regarded in the dental community for her contributions to the field.
During her presentation, Dr. Krishnan shared valuable insights into the process and significance of Root Canal Therapy (RCT). She explained that RCT becomes necessary when the pulp inside a tooth, consisting of nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissues, becomes infected or damaged. This condition often arises due to factors like deep decay, trauma, or repeated dental procedures such as fillings.
The speaker emphasized the importance of timely intervention and highlighted the benefits of Root Canal Therapy. By removing the infected or damaged pulp, thoroughly cleaning the root canal, and sealing it to prevent reinfection, RCT not only saves the natural tooth but also alleviates pain and discomfort caused by tooth infections.
Apart from focusing on RCT, Dr. Veena Krishnan also shared insights on maintaining proper dental hygiene. She stressed the significance of regular dental check-ups, proper brushing techniques, and dental care practices. Additionally, she provided guidance on when to change toothbrushes, recommending a replacement every time you recover from an infection.
The attendees actively engaged in the session, participating by asking questions and seeking clarifications on various dental issues. Dr. Krishnan's expertise and experience allowed her to address their queries effectively and provide informative responses.
