What Is Root Canal Therapy?

Root canal therapy treats infection inside the tooth.

During the procedure, your dentist carefully numbs the area to keep you comfortable. A small opening is created in the tooth to access the infected pulp. The damaged tissue is gently removed, and the inner canals are cleaned, disinfected, and shaped.

Once the space is thoroughly prepared, it is filled with a biocompatible material to seal the tooth and prevent further infection. In most cases, a dental crown is placed afterward to strengthen and protect the treated tooth.

When Is a Root Canal Necessary?

A root canal may be recommended if you experience:

  • Persistent tooth pain or throbbing
  • Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers‍
  • Swelling or tenderness in the gums‍
  • Darkening or discoloration of a tooth
  • ‍‍A pimple-like bump on the gums
  • Deep decay reaching the inner pulp

Prompt treatment helps prevent the spread of infection and protects surrounding teeth.
