Root canal therapy is a dental procedure designed to save a tooth that has been severely damaged or infected. During the procedure, the infected or inflamed pulp inside the tooth is carefully removed, the inner chamber is cleaned, and then it is sealed to prevent further infection. This treatment effectively restores the health and function of the tooth, allowing you to preserve your natural smile.

 

 

Root canal therapy offers numerous benefits, including preserving your natural tooth, preventing the need for extraction, and alleviating pain and discomfort associated with tooth infection. Additionally, it helps restore normal chewing and biting functions, maintains the integrity of surrounding teeth, and promotes overall oral health. With proper care, a tooth treated with root canal therapy can last a lifetime.

 

 

Contrary to popular belief, root canal therapy is not as painful as its reputation suggests. Thanks to advancements in dental technology and anesthesia techniques, the procedure is now relatively comfortable for patients. Most individuals report feeling minimal discomfort during and after the procedure, which can typically be managed with over-the-counter pain medication. The benefits of saving your natural tooth far outweigh any temporary discomfort you may experience.
