Root Canal Treatment

What is root canal treatment?

Root canal treatment is the removal of the tooth’s pulp, a small, thread-like tissue in the center of the tooth. Once the damaged, diseased or dead pulp is removed, the remaining space is cleaned, shaped and filled. This procedure seals off the root canal.

A root canal treatment is a very common procedure performed by dentist.

Problems with your root canal are often spotted while undergoing a regular dental check-up. If left untreated, root canal issues can often cause tooth loss!
