What is a Root Canal?
A root canal is an endodontic treatment used to address tooth pulp damage or infection. Tooth decay or injury may cause issues with the tooth nerve and pulp. When decay or injury reach these deep layers, they may require the intervention of a root canal for treatment.
About the Root Canal Procedure in Norwell, MA
Failing to address the infection or damage may lead to the tooth requiring extraction.
One approach to help preserve your natural tooth is to remove the compromised tooth pulp via a root canal. Here’s what you can expect during the procedure:
- The dentist uses local anesthetic to ensure a pain-free procedure
- Then, the dentist removes the tooth pulp
- They thoroughly clean the canal and remove any debris
- Next, the dentist fills in the tooth to seal it
- They may also install a dental crown to cap off the tooth and restore its structure
Typically, a root canal may require one or two dental visits and may be completed in under 90 minutes.
