When the nerve inside a tooth becomes infected or inflamed, root canal therapy is often the best way to save the tooth and relieve pain. Modern techniques and anesthesia make the procedure much more comfortable than its reputation suggests.
What's involved
- Thorough numbing of the area
- Removal of the inflamed or infected pulp
- Cleaning and sealing of the inner canals
- A crown or filling to protect the tooth long term
