What is Root Canal Therapy?

Root canal therapy is a procedure that saves a severely infected or damaged tooth by removing the infected pulp tissue inside the tooth. The tooth is then cleaned, disinfected, and sealed to prevent further infection. This treatment allows you to keep your natural tooth rather than having it extracted, maintaining your smile and bite function.
