Root Canal Treatment

Quick Overview Section

What Is This Treatment?

Root canal treatment is a procedure used to remove infection from inside the tooth and save it from extraction.

The infected pulp is carefully cleaned, disinfected, and sealed, allowing the tooth to function normally again. In many cases, a crown is placed afterward to strengthen and protect the treated tooth.

Modern techniques make root canal treatment comfortable and highly effective.
