Treating Your Smile One Tooth at a Time
A tooth usually needs a root canal procedure when the nerve of the tooth has been severely damaged due to an infection. The nerve inside the tooth is made up of substances found in tissues all throughout the body and it is vulnerable to injury. Injuries can come about in any number of ways, including traumatic accidents, extensive or repeated dental procedures, advanced periodontal disease, and bacterial decay. When the situation calls for it, a root canal treatment is performed by removing abscessed or inflamed tissue, disinfecting the area, and prepping the site to apply a suitable filling material. After the root canal system is closed off and a crown has been put over the tooth, the tooth can act as a functional and healthy tooth, just like any other.
