Root canal treatment can solve the problem of tooth pain. Tooth pain is usually associated with a dead, dying, or decaying nerve within a tooth.
Root canal treatment is needed when the nerve or blood supply of the tooth (known as pulp) is infected through injury or decay.
The infection can spread through the root canal system of the tooth and eventually the tooth may need to be taken out. To avoid this, the pulp can be removed, the root canal cleaned and sealed off to protect it.
Root canal dentists will remove the nerve within a tooth and replace it with a root canal filling.
This root canal procedure will relieve your symptoms and allow your tooth to be restored to its original form and function.
Unlike in the past when this resulted in discolouration, with modern technology and materials the teeth will preserve their natural appearance.
