Root Canal
Hearing the words "root canal" can be intimidating, but modern root canal procedures are safe, effective, and most of the time pain-free. If you're experiencing tooth pain, it may be caused by infection of the nerve inside your tooth. A root canal removes the infected nerve tissue, relieves pain, and saves your natural tooth.
Why a Root Canal May Be Needed
Deep cavities can allow bacteria to reach the nerve, causing significant discomfort. In these cases, a root canal is the best way to treat the infection and preserve the tooth. Nerve-related pain can also occur when a large filling or crown comes too close to the nerve—a possibility that may arise years after dental work. When this happens, a root canal can eliminate pain and preserve the tooth.
Aftercare
After treatment, a dental crown is often recommended to protect the tooth from fracture. With proper care and regular checkups, a tooth treated with a root canal can still last a lifetime.
