What Is Root Canal Treatment?
The root canal is located inside of your tooth. It is attached to the pulp chamber, which is a small cavity filled with the dental pulp, which contains nerves, blood vessels, and living materials. When this area becomes infected or inflamed, it is very painful. This is a result of bacteria entering the inside of the tooth through injury, decay or other trauma. In order to treat this infection, the pulp must be removed to relieve pain and restore oral health. The inside of the tooth will then be filled with a rubber-like material called gutta-percha. After your root canal treatment is complete, the tooth is typically covered with a dental crown in order to provide strength and protection. Once healed, this tooth can be used normally.
