Root Canal
You Can Save and Restore Damaged Teeth with Root Canal Treatment
When a tooth is suffering from decay or infection, a root canal treatment is used to restore it. This is a dental procedure where the inside of the tooth is cleaned and sealed after removing the nerves and pulp.
If a root canal treatment is not done in time, the tissue surrounding the tooth will get infected and result in swelling and abscesses.

Although a root canal treatment involves removal of the tooth’s nerves, the only function of the nerves is sensory – to provide the sensation of hot or cold. The day-to-day functioning of the tooth will not be affected by existence or absence of a nerve.
To learn more about the benefits of having a root canal treatment, and know about its alternatives, consult your trusted Groton dentist Dr. Ali.
