Root canal treatment becomes necessary when the pulp, the innermost layer of your tooth containing nerves and blood vessels, becomes infected or damaged. This can occur due to deep decay, cracks, or trauma to the tooth. Without treatment, the infection can spread, causing severe pain and potentially leading to tooth loss.
When the pulp, which contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue inside the tooth, becomes infected due to deep decay or damage, a root canal is required. The procedure involves removing the infected pulp to prevent the spread of infection and to save the tooth from extraction.
Infected or damaged pulp can lead to intense and persistent tooth pain. A root canal is necessary to alleviate this pain by removing the source of the infection and restoring the tooth's health.
If left untreated, an infected or damaged tooth can lead to the formation of an abscess, a painful pocket of pus at the tooth's root. In severe cases, the infection can spread to the surrounding tissues and bone, necessitating tooth extraction. A root canal can prevent tooth loss by preserving the natural tooth and preventing further complications.
