Root canal treatment is a highly effective endodontic procedure that can save natural teeth affected by tooth decay. When left untreated, tooth decay can progress to the inner pulp of the tooth, causing severe pain, swelling, and infection. In such cases, extracting the affected tooth may seem like the easiest solution, but it’s important to understand that this can have long-term consequences for your oral health and overall well-being. Root canal therapy, on the other hand, involves removing the infected pulp and cleaning and shaping the root canals to prevent further infection. This is followed by sealing the tooth with a filling or crown to restore its natural structure and function. By choosing root canal treatment, you not only save your natural tooth.
