What is Root Canal Treatment?
Root canal treatment, also called endodontic therapy, is a procedure that treats infected or severely damaged tooth pulp. The pulp is the soft tissue inside your tooth that contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. When this pulp becomes infected or inflamed due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures, or trauma, it can cause severe pain and lead to abscess formation.Our oral medicine specialists work closely with your other healthcare providers to provide complete care that addresses both oral symptoms and any underlying medical conditions that may be contributing to your oral health problems.
