What is a root canal treatment?

A root canal is the natural cavity within the roots of the tooth. It consists of pulp(nerves of the tooth). A root canal treatment is the treatment of the tooth root.

 

When there is a tooth decay, the pulp gets infected and it causes pain. In such cases a root canal treatment is suggested. Sometimes, the infection spreads from the gums to the tooth and affects the pulp, which in turn causes pain. In these cases also a root canal treatment is suggested.

In root canal treatment, the infected pulp of the tooth is taken out, the cavity is sterilised and sealed with a biocompatible material.

Who needs a root canal treatment?

Have you ever experienced the throbbing pain with swollen gums in a decayed tooth that you ignored for long time because it was not paining?

Such dental conditions, which was earlier considered for extraction, can now be saved by means of a root canal treatment.

 

What happens if the affected tooth is not treated with a root canal treatment?
