Save Your Tooth and Restore Your Smile
What Is Root Canal Treatment?
Root canal treatment is a dental procedure designed to save a tooth that has become severely decayed or infected. During the procedure, the dentist removes the infected pulp from inside the tooth, cleans the empty space, and then fills and seals the tooth. This treatment helps to alleviate pain caused by an infected or damaged tooth and prevents the need for extraction. Root canal treatment is often recommended when a tooth’s pulp becomes infected due to deep cavities, cracks, or trauma. After the treatment, the tooth is usually restored with a crown to protect it and restore its function.
