What Is Root Canal Therapy?
Dentist & Orthodontist in Twinsburg & Stow
Root canal therapy is a highly effective dental procedure designed to save a tooth that has been severely compromised by decay, infection, or injury. Inside each tooth lies a soft tissue called the pulp, which consists of nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. When this pulp becomes inflamed or infected, it can lead to severe pain, sensitivity, and even abscesses if left untreated.
During root canal therapy, the damaged pulp is carefully removed from the tooth’s interior. The canals are then thoroughly cleaned, disinfected, and sealed to prevent any further infection. Local anesthesia ensures that the procedure is entirely comfortable and virtually pain-free. Once the treatment is completed, a temporary filling is placed to protect the tooth until a permanent crown or restoration is added to restore its full functionality.
