Root canal treatment is a safe and effective procedure used to save teeth that are infected, inflamed, or severely damaged. If you’re experiencing persistent tooth pain, sensitivity, swelling, or signs of infection, this treatment can relieve discomfort and protect your natural tooth. When bacteria reach the inner pulp through decay, cracks, or trauma, the infection will not heal on its own and must be treated to prevent spread.
