What is a Root Canal?
Root canal therapy is an essential procedure that removes inflamed or infected pulp from inside a tooth, often caused by decay, a leaky filling, or trauma to the tooth. Left untreated, an infected or abscessed tooth can become extremely painful and put the health of the tooth at serious risk.
What the treatment involves
Once the infected pulp is removed, the inside of the tooth is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected to eliminate bacteria. The tooth is then filled and sealed to prevent reinfection. This process is essential for stopping the spread of infection and ultimately saving the natural tooth.
What to expect
Root canal therapy offers lasting benefits for both oral health and overall well-being. By eliminating infection at the source, the treatment relieves pain, protects your natural tooth, and helps prevent the infection from affecting your broader health.
Who’s a good candidate?
Root canal therapy saves over 2 million teeth in Canada every year. It's an excellent option for patients looking to preserve a natural tooth rather than lose it, since extraction typically leads to more costly and involved restorations down the line, such as bridges or implants.
