ROOT CANAL TREATMENT

Root canal is the space inside the tooth that contains a special tissue called pulp, along with blood vessels and nerve tissues. Due to decay or trauma this tissue sometimes gets infected causing pain, swelling and even pus discharge. Earlier this tooth would have to be removed, however now with root canal therapy it can be easily retained lifelong.
