A root canal treatment is one of the most common and successful restorative procedures used in painfree dentistry to save natural teeth from decay and infection.
Inside every tooth is a root canal containing nerves and blood vessels. When teeth become cracked or damaged, bacteria can enter and cause inflammation. If left untreated, this may lead to severe pain or the need for tooth extraction.
At Pain Free Dental Clinic, a trusted Moss Vale dental clinic, our goal is to restore oral health while keeping patients comfortable with modern pain free dentistry techniques.
A root canal removes infection and allows the tooth to be restored with a dental crown or bridge when necessary.
