What Happens During a Root Canal?
A root canal becomes necessary when the innermost part of a tooth, the pulp (which contains nerves and blood vessels), becomes infected or inflamed due to deep decay, a crack, or trauma. To treat it, we begin by thoroughly numbing the area so you remain comfortable throughout. We then create a small opening in the tooth to access the pulp chamber, carefully removing the infected tissue and cleaning the canals. Once the canals are shaped and disinfected, they are filled and sealed with a biocompatible material. Typically, a dental crown is then placed over the tooth to restore its strength and protect it long-term.
