What Happens During a Root Canal?

Usually, a root canal takes place over two dental visits. It starts by using dental tools to reach your tooth’s inner chambers. We’ll remove your infected tooth pulp, and then we’ll sanitize the space and fill it with a composite resin. Lastly, our staff will seal the affected tooth and place a dental crown over it. This cap will protect your tooth from further decay and save it from an extraction.
