Book appointmentWhen is root canal needed?
When a cavity becomes deep, the tooth nerve can be damaged and bacteria can cause an infection in the root canal, often leading to toothache. The body's own defense cannot reach these bacteria, so the tooth must be cleaned and root filled.
Root canal may also be needed for other reasons, such as teeth grinding or severe wear.

After treatment
After a successful root canal, the tooth usually functions as normal. In some cases, treatment may need to be divided into several sessions, with a bactericidal agent and a temporary filling between sessions. Root canal is painless in most cases, and sometimes the infection is only discovered through X-rays because the nerve is already dead.
