What Is Root Canal Treatment?
A root canal is a procedure that removes infected or damaged pulp (the soft tissue inside the tooth), cleans and disinfects the inside, and fills it with a protective sealing material. This prevents reinfection and allows the tooth to function normally again.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is root canal treatment painful?
No. Modern root canal therapy is performed under anesthesia and is generally no more uncomfortable than getting a filling.
How long does a root canal take?
Most treatments can be completed in one or two visits, depending on the complexity of the tooth.
Why is a crown recommended after a root canal?
After treatment, the tooth may become weaker. A crown helps protect it and restores full chewing ability.
What happens if I don’t get a root canal?
The infection can spread, leading to severe pain, abscesses, or even tooth loss. Root canal treatment is the best way to save the tooth.
