What is Root Canal?
Root canal treatment involves the removal of the diseased pulp along with the tooth’s nerve (located within a tooth’s root canal).
Before having root canal treatment, your dentist may take a series of X-rays of the affected tooth.
This allows them to build up a clear picture of the root canal and assess the extent of any damage.
Root canal treatment is completed in one or two office visits, depending on the presence of infection and the required treatment plan. After restoration, the tooth continues to function like any other tooth. With good oral hygiene, the restored tooth has the potential to last a lifetime.
