A root canal is a dental procedure designed to save a tooth that has become infected or severely damaged in its inner pulp — the soft tissue containing nerves and blood vessels. When decay or injury causes infection, the pulp can become inflamed and painful. Root canal treatment involves carefully removing the infected pulp, cleaning and disinfecting the inside of the tooth, and then sealing it to prevent further infection. This helps preserve the natural tooth and avoids the need for extraction.

Modern root canal therapy is highly effective, often completed in one or two visits with minimal discomfort thanks to local anesthesia and advanced techniques. By saving the natural tooth, a root canal restores normal biting and chewing function and prevents surrounding teeth from shifting out of place. It’s an essential treatment for maintaining long-term oral health and a pain-free smile.
