What Is Root Canal Therapy?
Root canal therapy treats infection or inflammation inside the tooth’s pulp (the soft tissue containing nerves and blood vessels). When bacteria reach this area, pain and swelling can become severe. A root canal:
- Removes infected tissue
- Removes infected tissue
- Seals the tooth to prevent reinfection
- Preserves your natural tooth structure
Signs You May Need a Root Canal
- Severe or lingering tooth pain
- Sensitivity to hot or cold
- Swelling of the gums or face
- Pain when biting or chewing
- A pimple-like bump on the gums
- Deep decay or a cracked tooth
