Root Canal Therapy

Root canal therapy is an effective method to remove bacteria from the infected teeth. It is also called endodontic therapy which means the treatment of the teeth from inside. RCT is done when the patient has tooth decay. The decay reaches the innermost layer of the tooth, causing pain and inflammation. When a person goes through root canal treatment, the infected pulp is cleaned to relieve dental pain and also save the natural tooth from reinfection.

Root Canal treatment is performed by deep cleaning the inside of a tooth. The hollow area is created and a rubber-like material is used to fill the canals. After this, the tooth gets repaired with no more infection like before. Since it becomes more brittle, a crown is used to offer protection to the tooth.

If you are feeling severe pain in your mouth while chewing food, then this is the sign of tooth decay, needing a root canal. For RCT, contact Franklin Bright Smiles.
