What is a Root Canal?

A root canal is a narrow tunnel that runs through the center of your tooth. Because it’s so open, it can lead to infection and, if left untreated, can spread to other canals and even your gums. This infection can cause severe irritation in the gums and aching in the infected tooth. A root canal procedure, an essential step in dental care, allows us to remove the infection without removing the tooth.

Root Canal Procedure

A root canal procedure eliminates the need to extract the infected tooth and prevents the infection from spreading to other areas of the mouth. The procedure begins with removing the infected tissue, followed by a meticulous and thorough cleaning of the remaining tissue to ensure no trace of the infection is left. Finally, the area is filled, leaving it sealed up.
