Endodontics | Root Canal Treatment
Dental root canal treatment illustrated step by step.
Endodontics is the dentistry term for root canal treatment, which is usually required when the nerve of a tooth is infected or has died.
This can cause a painful abscess around the tooth. Root canal treatment is an alternative to extracting the tooth.
The nerve space is cleaned and disinfected, then filled with a rubbery material. Two or three visits are usually required and we recommend the tooth should have a crown placed on it to protect it from breaking.
