Why Are Root Canals The First Step In Saving Your Infected And Painful Teeth?
Root canals fix problems with the guts of your teeth…the nerve or pulp. They are solutions to:
- Decay
- Abscess
- Infection
- Trauma to a tooth.
Root Canal Procedure Description
First, the nerve is carefully taken out. Then the canal of the tooth is cleaned and permanently filled and sealed.
The tooth is no longer alive. This relieves your pain and discomfort.
Root canals save your tooth. It does not have to be taken out.
Once root canal therapy is performed, you need a crown and crown buildup on the tooth to keep it strong and functional.
