Description

Root canal treatment is a dental procedure used to save a tooth that is severely infected or decayed by removing the damaged pulp inside the tooth. The procedure involves cleaning, disinfecting, and sealing the root canals to prevent further infection. Root canals are typically recommended when the infection reaches the tooth’s nerve, causing pain or abscess formation. This treatment helps preserve the tooth's structure while relieving pain, preventing the need for extraction. After the root canal, a crown is often placed on the tooth to restore its strength and function.
