What  is a Root Canal Treatment?

A Root Canal Treatment is conducted by a Root Canal Specialist, Also known as an Endodontist when a patient comes in with a decayed or damaged tooth that might be infected. It is advisable to go through with the procedure rather than extracting the tooth as retaining natural teeth is always better than getting a false one after an extraction and not replacing teeth after extraction can affect the health of the remaining teeth. The soft inner chamber of the tooth known as the pulp –contains Nerves, Blood vessels and Connective tissue. When the pulp gets damaged or infected due to a chip in the tooth or dental decay that allows bacteria to enter, A Root Canal procedure needs to be performed in order to remove the infected pulp and clean and seal the inside of the tooth.
