The Root Canal Therapy Process
During root canal therapy, we access the inner portion of a tooth, the pulp. Using special tools, we clean out the damaged or infected area and remove the tooth’s nerve, which may have been sending pain signals to the brain. Then, we fill in the tooth with a special material called gutta percha. Later, we may place a crown to protect the treated tooth. Anesthesia, along with sedation if requested, contributes to patient comfort throughout the treatment process.
