If you have been looking for signs to understand if or not you require root canal treatment, then you must visit the dental surgeons. In this blog, we will talk about the root canal and the way in which the professionals at Margolian dentistry help.
What is a root canal?
To understand what a root canal is, you must understand the biology of a tooth. Every tooth includes a pulp, which is an inner spongy tissue, with the hard tooth outside of that. The passageway containing the pulp is the root canal, where the roots live. When this passageway undergoes treatment (also called endodontic therapy), it is called Root canal therapy.
What causes the need for a root canal?
Improper dental hygiene could lead to cavities and eventually will cause damage to the canal. Cracks or fissures in the teeth can also lead to the need for a root canal. The roots and the material inside can get infected causing pain.
Is root canal treatment painful?
Your dentist will use anesthetic and will practice expert techniques to ensure that you feel as little as possible during the procedure. At Margolian dentistry, we use cutting-edge methods so that the teeth remain healthy!
