What Is a Root Canal?

The phrase “root canal” is used interchangeably to describe two things: the cavity within tooth root that is filled with the nerves and tissues of the dental pulp, as well as the procedure to “clean up” said cavity.

Root Canal Procedure

A root canal is a natural channel inside of a tooth that contains tooth pulp and nerves. When this root canal becomes infected, a dentist or endodontist will clean the infection and sterilize the affected area of your tooth. Once completed, Dr. William Stewart will fill the root canal and then seal the tooth with a dental crown to add stability and aesthetics.

When you experience a painful toothache, the most likely culprit is bacteria that has infiltrated the enamel of your tooth and reached the central nerve. This bacterial presence results in decay and ultimately infection. The actual root canal therapy that dentists perform involves removing the pulp of your tooth and then cleaning and sealing the inside.

Do I Need A Root Canal?

You may be a candidate for root canal therapy if you are experiencing any of the following symptoms:
