What Is Root Canal Treatment?

Root canal treatment (also known as endodontic therapy) is a dental procedure to remove infected pulp inside your tooth, clean the canal, and seal it to prevent reinfection. It’s often needed to save a tooth instead of extracting it.

This treatment is commonly recommended when:

  • You experience persistent toothache or sensitivity

  • There’s deep decay or dental trauma

  • There is swelling or abscess formation

🗣️: “Is root canal painful?” – Modern procedures are nearly painless with local anesthesia.
