Save an infected or damaged tooth by removing infected pulp, relieving pain, and restoring the tooth's function and health.
At Elora Dental And Aesthetics, Root Canal Treatment is a restorative dental procedure used to treat infection or damage within the tooth's pulp, the soft tissue containing nerves and blood vessels. When the pulp becomes infected due to deep decay, cracks, trauma, or repeated dental procedures, it can cause severe pain, sensitivity, swelling, and potential tooth loss if left untreated.
During the procedure, the infected or damaged pulp is carefully removed, and the root canals are thoroughly cleaned, disinfected, and shaped. The canals are then filled with a biocompatible material to prevent reinfection. In most cases, a dental crown is placed afterward to strengthen and protect the treated tooth.
Modern root canal treatment is safe, effective, and designed to be as comfortable as possible. It helps eliminate pain, preserve your natural tooth, restore normal chewing function, and prevent the need for extraction, allowing you to maintain a healthy and complete smile.
