What is Root Canal Treatment

The root canal is the innermost part of the tooth, containing soft tissue known as pulp, which houses nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. When the pulp becomes infected or damaged due to deep decay, trauma, or repeated dental procedures, it can cause severe pain and discomfort. In such cases, root canal treatment is necessary to remove the infected pulp, clean and seal the tooth, and prevent further infection.

How is Root Canal Treatment Performed

Your dentist will begin by taking X-rays to assess the extent of the damage or infection inside the tooth and to determine the best course of action Local anaesthesia is applied to numb the area around the affected tooth, ensuring you are comfortable throughout the procedure. vA small opening is made in the crown (top) of the tooth, allowing the dentist to access the pulp chamber and root canals.

Root Canals Are Only for Severe Cases

Root canal treatment is often performed to save teeth with significant damage or infection, but it can be used to prevent further complications in less severe cases as well. Root canal treatment has a high success rate, with the majority of cases resulting in long-term tooth preservation.

Root canal treatment (also known as endodontic therapy) is a dental procedure designed to save a tooth that is badly damaged or infected.

  • A damaged or infected tooth can affect your ability to chew, speak, and maintain a proper bite. After root canal treatment, the tooth is restored to its full functionality.
