A root canal becomes necessary when the soft tissue inside your tooth, called the pulp, gets infected or damaged. This can happen due to deep cavities, trauma, or repeated dental procedures. A root canal helps save your tooth and alleviates pain.
Yes, root canals are a common dental procedure. Dentists perform millions each year to save teeth that might otherwise need extraction. This procedure aims to preserve your natural smile and maintain overall oral health.
During a root canal, the dentist removes the infected pulp, cleans the inside of your tooth, and seals it to prevent further infection. You’ll likely feel little to no pain during the procedure, and modern techniques make it a relatively comfortable experience.
In some cases, alternatives like extraction or living with the infection temporarily may seem possible. However, it’s crucial to consider the long-term impact. A root canal aims to preserve your natural tooth, preventing the need for a replacement like an implant, which can be a more involved process.
