Root Canal Therapy

Root canal therapy is completed for a number of reasons and involves removal of the nerve inside the root of the tooth and replacement of the nerve space with a filling material. It is often completed when there has been irreparable damage of the nerve inside the tooth, often when decay and bacteria has reached the nerve and caused damage or when the tooth has undergone trauma, often causing a lot of pain. This type of treatment will help to reduce and remove the pain and save the root structure of the tooth.
