Root canal treatment addresses infection inside a tooth. It can help preserve the natural tooth and relieve symptoms associated with dental infection. Endodontic treatment is performed by a dentist with training in this area.
Root canal treatment removes infected or inflamed pulp inside a tooth, cleans and disinfects the area, and seals it to save the natural tooth. It relieves pain and prevents further infection.
Sometimes a previously treated tooth doesn't heal properly or becomes re-infected. Retreatment involves reopening the tooth, removing the old filling material, cleaning again, and resealing it to give the tooth another chance to heal.
With proper care, a tooth that has had root canal treatment can last a lifetime. A crown is often placed afterward for added protection.
