Root canal therapy becomes necessary when a tooth’s root chamber becomes
infected by decay. Extensive tooth decay or an injury can cause serious damage
and infection to the nerves and vessels in the dental pulp, making root canal
therapy necessary to save the tooth.
The Root Canal Procedure
During the root canal procedure, one of our dentists will clean out the infected
pulp chamber inside your tooth and repair the damage to relieve pain and clear
the infection. Following root canal therapy, our dentist restores the form and
function of treated teeth with all-porcelain crowns. Porcelain crowns are
durable, long-lasting, and provide a superior aesthetic result.
