What is Root Canal Therapy?
Root canal therapy is a procedure used to save a damaged or infected tooth. The procedure involves removing the damaged or infected pulp (the living tissue inside the tooth), nerves, bacteria, and any decay. The space left behind is then filled with special, medicated dental materials that restore the tooth to its full function. Root canal therapy is an effective way to save a tooth that would otherwise die and have to be removed.
