Root Canals

While many people may view root canals as “scary,” the truth is that a root canal is an effective treatment to stop tooth pain and save your tooth. When a tooth becomes infected, it’s usually related to the nerves in the root of your tooth. These infected nerves need to be removed. If left untreated, an infection can turn into an abscess, which is a much more serious problem that can lead to missing teeth and bone loss in your jaw.
