What Happens During a Root Canal/Pulp Therapy?
Most of the time, a severe toothache stems from an infection that has reached the interior sensitive nerve of a tooth. Rather than just extracting the entire tooth, we can use root canal treatment to remove the infected tissue and fortify the enamel. This offers fast relief and a much more conservative procedure. With kids, we can also perform pulp therapy, in which any healthy tissue is left in place so the tooth is able to function normally until it falls out naturally.
