Root Canal
Root canal treatment lets you keep the tooth rather than have it extracted.

A root canal is required when the nerve of your tooth becomes infected. Keeping your teeth helps prevent other teeth from drifting into the missing areas and causing jaw problems. Saving a natural tooth avoids having to replace it with an artificial tooth in the future.

Things to think about:

After your root canal treatment, your tooth will have to be restored with a filling or crown. A restoration will be required along with your root canal treatment so that your tooth post treatment will function as normally as possible.
