Root Canal Treatment
The root canal procedure is performed to save a damaged or badly infected tooth, instead of extracting it.
Root canal treatment is needed when dental X-rays show that the pulp has been damaged by a bacterial infection. The pulp may become inflamed if it's infected by bacteria, allowing the bacteria to multiply and spread.
