When decay or injury reaches the nerve of a tooth, the result is often severe pain or an abscess. Root canal therapy cleans out the infected tissue, disinfects the canals, and seals them so the tooth can stay in place.
Modern techniques and anaesthesia make the procedure far more comfortable than its reputation. Most patients compare it to getting a filling.
