Root canal procedure
 A root canal procedure
limits the infection and keeps it from destroying the tooth. During the
root canal treatment procedure, the dentist removes the inflamed or
infected tissue, carefully cleans, disinfects, and shapes the root
canal space inside
the tooth, and then fills and seals this space.
It may take one or more appointments to complete the procedure. A
protective restoration such as a crown should be placed after root canal
treatment has been completed in order to restore the tooth to function
and help prevent tooth fracture.
At Kaggen Dental Care, we think of a root canal as washing the invasive
bacteria out of the root, filling it with a biocompatible material that
soothes the area, then sealing it back up again. Top it off with a
crown, and you're as good as new.
