What is a Root Canal?

A root canal, also known as endodontic treatment, is a procedure designed to repair and save a tooth that is severely decayed or infected. During the procedure, the infected or damaged pulp inside the tooth is carefully removed, the inside of the tooth is cleaned and disinfected, and then filled and sealed to prevent further infection. This allows you to retain your natural tooth and restore its function and appearance.
