Root Canal Treatment

Underneath the enamel, your tooth has pulpy and soft matter. Inside this pulp is a collection of nerves, connective tissue, and blood vessels. The pulp can get infected in a variety of ways, often caused by a crack, chip in your tooth, or deep decay. When tooth decay is extensive and infringes on the canal space, or, when that “pulp” in your tooth becomes irritated by infection or trauma, it is frequently necessary to remove it from the canal space in the root of your tooth. This space is then disinfected and filled, resulting in a restoration of the natural comfort and function of your tooth!
