What Is Root Canal Therapy?

What Is Root Canal Therapy?
Root Canal Therapy is a dental procedure that removes infected or inflamed tissue from inside a tooth while preserving the outer structure. Rather than removing the tooth, this treatment allows the tooth to remain in place, supporting proper chewing, alignment, and long-term oral health.
  • Why Saving Your Natural Tooth Matters

    Many patients ask, “what is root canal treatment, and whether extraction is the easier option. In most cases, saving your natural tooth is the preferred option, as tooth removal can lead to higher costs, shifting teeth, and additional restorative treatment.
