What Is a Root Canal?
At the core of your tooth is soft tissue known as pulp. A root canal is a procedure used to salvage a tooth by removing a damaged root nerve and the infected surrounding pulp. Some common reasons that pulp becomes infected include having a deep cavity or cracked tooth, undergoing repeated dental procedures, or sustaining an injury to your tooth.
The surgery is usually necessary to prevent further damage to the surrounding teeth and gum. The root is then filled with a composite material and a crown is placed on the salvaged tooth to retain functionality and bite.
How Do You Know if You Need a Root Canal?
If you are experiencing any of the following symptoms, we recommend that you visit our office for further evaluation:
- Spontaneous pain or throbbing while biting
- Sensitivity to hot and cold foods
- Severe decay or an injury that creates an abscess (infection) in the bone
