Root Canal Treatment
The Popular Choice
ROOT CANAL THERAPY IS A POPULAR AND EFFECTIVE TREATMENT FOR TEETH THAT ARE SEVERELY DECAYED, INFECTED, OR BROKEN. THE MAIN BENEFIT IS THAT IT ALLOWS YOU TO MAINTAIN YOUR TEETH FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME RATHER THAN HAVING TO EXTRACT OR REPLACE THEM. NO CONSULT NEEDED.
A root canal is part of a naturally occurring space within a tooth that consists of the pulp chamber, the main canal, and more intricate anatomical branches that may connect the root canals to each other or to the surface of the root. The smaller branches are most frequently found near the root end (apex) but may be encountered anywhere along the root length.
Unfortunately, after root canal therapy the tooth often becomes brittle. To protect the tooth from fracture, it is recommended that the tooth be restored and fortified with a crown.
