Root Canal Treatment
Type
Root Canal
Duration
2 hours
Endodontic treatment to save an infected or damaged tooth.
Root canal therapy saves a severely infected or damaged tooth by removing the infected pulp (nerve tissue) from inside the tooth, cleaning and shaping the root canals, and sealing them to prevent reinfection. Despite its reputation, modern root canal treatment is comparable to getting a filling — performed under local anesthesia with minimal discomfort. After root canal treatment, the tooth typically needs a crown for protection since it becomes more brittle without its living pulp. With proper restoration, a root canal-treated tooth can function normally for many years.
Key Details
Who Is This For?
