Root Canal
A root canal treats a tooth when a deep cavity has reached and damaged or infected the soft tissue, called the pulp, inside the tooth. The dentist removes the infected or inflamed pulp, cleans and seals the root canals, and usually restores the tooth with a filling or crown. This can relieve pain, clear the infection, and preserve a tooth that might otherwise require extraction.
