Root Canal Treatment

At whiteorchiddental, we understand that the thought of a root canal can be daunting. However, with advances in dental technology and techniques, root canal treatment has become a routine and relatively painless procedure. Our goal is to provide you with all the information you need to feel comfortable and informed about this common dental treatment.

Root canal treatment, also known as endodontic therapy, is a dental procedure designed to eliminate bacteria from the infected root canal, prevent reinfection of the tooth, and save the natural tooth. When the pulp inside the tooth becomes inflamed or infected due to decay, repeated dental procedures on the tooth, or a crack or chip in the tooth, a root canal is often the best treatment to relieve pain and save the tooth.
