Root Canal Therapy

What Is a Root Canal?

Root canal treatment (also called endodontic treatment) is a process whereby the inflamed or infected pulp inside the tooth is removed. The inside of the tooth is carefully cleaned/disinfected and sealed. Afterward, the tooth is restored with a crown or filling for protection and will continue to function like any other tooth. This treatment can save your natural teeth and prevent the need for more invasive replacement procedures.

Endodontic treatment helps you maintain your natural smile and allows you to continue to eat the foods you love.
