Root Canal Treatment
When the pulp of the tooth is infected, a root canal may be required for proper treatment. Infections of the pulp may occur through trauma, deep decay, cracks, and chips as well as repeated dental procedures. Pain or swelling of the tooth or gum may be indicative of infection. Additionally, sensitivity to temperature of teeth may be a sign of infection as well.
A root canal involves the removal of the infected pulp. Once the pulp is removed, your dentist thoroughly cleans the root canal system located in the root of the tooth. Treatment typically involves local anesthesia and is completed in one or more visits. Treatment length greatly depends on the severity of the infection and changes on a case by case basis.
