Endodontics is the treatment you need when infections affect the dental pulp, which is the tissue inside the tooth. It can occur because of untreated decay, a fracture or dental injury. Treatment involves several steps to eliminate the infection and protect the rest of the tooth from further microbial attack. Endodontic treatment includes:
Cleaning and disinfecting root canals to remove bacteria and infected tissue. Filling the root canal with a root canal filler to prevent reinfection. Restoring the tooth with a crown or other restoration to restore function and aesthetics. its functionality and esthetics. Endodontics is essential for saving teeth and preventing tooth loss, even in advanced cases of infection.
