Root Canal

Root canal treatment is a procedure to remove diseased pulp inside the tooth, thoroughly clean the canals, and fill and seal the space before final restoration. Root canal treatment can save your natural tooth and is a very commonly performed treatment.

Root canal treatment relieves pain. In a recent survey, patients who have experienced root canal treatment are 6 times more likely to describe it as a “painless treatment” than patients who have not had root canal treatments. Therefore, the myth about root canal treatment being painful is untrue. The majority of patients describe a root canal treatment is similar to a having a filling.
