What Is Root Canal For? 

A root canal is a dental procedure to remove inflamed pulp due to tooth decay (preventative treatment) or injury. A damaged or infected tooth must be removed, and the chamber cleaned out. Our root canal procedures, performed by our seasoned root canal dentists, are painless, as our goal is always to save your tooth.

You will also have a diminished likelihood of any future problems with the tooth when you have a root canal dentist performing the procedure.

What Is Infected Pulp?

Found naturally in the pulp of the tooth, the pulp is made up of blood vessels and nerves. After a tooth has been cracked or broken, the pulp inside becomes inflamed due to bacteria which can spread and cause more damage leading to severe pain and tooth loss. It is important to treat an infected tooth as soon as possible to prevent further damage to the tooth and surrounding areas.
