Root Canal Therapy

A procedure to save a badly decayed or infected tooth.

Root canal therapy is a crucial procedure designed to save a tooth that has become severely infected or decayed. The process involves removing the infected pulp from inside the tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the inner chambers, and then filling and sealing it. Contrary to popular belief, modern root canal procedures are typically comfortable and are highly effective at relieving tooth pain and saving a tooth that might otherwise need to be extracted.
