[|Human|] i had a root canaling done 3years ago, and the filling fell out like after a year. The doctor said it wasnt a problem so i didnt get a new filling. And I was left with a hole in the molar with no fillings. And now i sort of felt like something growing in that hole and apparently i think a new flesh has been growing in it and its red. And i am kinda scared about it. Is it treatable?
[|AI|]  Dear sir/ Mam, I understand your problem. Root canal treatment is removing the decayed nerve and blood vessels from the root. Once it's done your tooth become lifeless. ThereeafterYou will not have any kind of sense (pain or sensitivity)in that tooth. But to prevent chipping of root canal treated tooth it's always advisable to get a cap or crown for it. Since your tooth hole is opened for a long time without a filling or crown, adjacent gum tissue would have grown into it, becoming red as you chew food particles on it. In rare case, the filling material even from root would have come out and the remnant pupal tissue would have developed into a pupal polyp (painless growth of pupal tissue). Whatever the reason for the growing tissue, its absolutely treatable. You may need a re- RCT if its pupal polyp or else just cut the gum tissue growth (painless with lasers)and fill the tooth. Absolutely nothing to worry. Hope your query is answered. For further queries please don't hesitate to contact back.
