A root canal is a procedure used to save a tooth when its pulp becomes infected or inflamed. This can happen due to deep decay, repeated dental work, or trauma to the tooth.
The procedure involves removing the infected tissue, thoroughly cleaning the root canals, and sealing the tooth to prevent further infection. Root canals help relieve pain and restore the function of the tooth.

Moreover, routine cleanings allow our dentists to detect any early signs of dental problems, enabling timely intervention.
