Root Canal Treatment

Tooth Ache

A root canal infection occurs when a cavity or infection penetrates the tooth and spreads to the root of the tooth where the nerves and blood supply are located. Anyone that has experienced this in the will know that this is extremely painful. 

Root canal treatment 

The treatment plan for a root canal infection involves removing the infected pulp and fitting the tooth with a temporary crown. The temporary crown is then removed and x-rays are taken following a period to ensure that the infection has fully subsided and the healing process has begun. Following this, the final stage is fitting the permanent crown restoration.
