What Is a Root Canal Treatment?

A root canal treatment is a dental procedure used to remove infected or inflamed tissue from inside the tooth. After cleaning and disinfecting the root canals, the tooth is sealed to help prevent further infection.

  • Removal of infection — Eliminates bacteria and infected tissue from inside the tooth.
  • Pain relief — Helps reduce tooth pain, pressure, and sensitivity.
  • Tooth preservation — Allows the natural tooth to remain functional whenever possible.
  • Protection against further damage — Helps prevent the spread of infection to surrounding tissues.
