What Happens During a Root Canal?
The first step of the root canal process is the treatment itself, which involves creating a small window in the top biting surface of the tooth to gain access to the infected pulp that lies within the inner chamber. When this collection of nerves and soft tissue becomes compromised, it often results in the characteristic severe toothache that many folks experience. By removing the infected pulp, your pain will be eased, all while preserving the structure of your tooth.
The final step of the root canal treatment process is cementing a protective dental crown atop the treated tooth to provide it with an additional layer of protection. In many cases, patients who have received root canals go on to enjoy their treated teeth for the remainder of their lives!
