Root Canal Therapy

Root canal treatment is an often straightforward procedure to relieve dental pain and save your teeth. Patients typically need a root canal when there is inflammation or infection in the roots of a tooth.

During root canal treatment, the dentist carefully removes the pulp inside the tooth, cleans, disinfects and shapes the root canals before placing a filling to seal the space.In most cases, a crown is advocated as the definitive restoration to appropriately seal the space and protect the tooth from future fracture.
