For cases where your teeth are cracked, contain a deep cavity that can not be filled by using a filling or experience any irreversible nerve damage a root canal surgery is needed. This is a common dental procedure where we treat your teeth from the infection and is usually accompanied by a crown to protect the rootless tooth.
We start off by cleaning out the infection and removing the nerves and blood vessels from the tooth known as the tooth’s pulp. The dentist then needs to fill the hollow canal leaving a tooth that is pain free but much weaker. This is why a root canal is usually partnered with other procedures to avoid fracturing the tooth post operation.
