What Happens During a Root Canal?
After creating a small opening in your tooth, we will take out the infected pulp. We’ll then carefully sanitize the inner pulp chamber; the goal is to get rid of any bacteria that could lead to further problems. After the tooth is refilled, a crown can be used to seal it.
Keep in mind that root canal therapy is intended to relieve pain, not cause it. We will only carry out the procedure after applying a local anesthetic to the treatment site.
