Root Canal Treatment- If a tooth's pulp (nerve & blood supply) becomes infected or inflamed, root canal therapy may only be way to save the tooth, instead of removing it; the procedure consists of removing the nerve that lies within the root of the tooth. We never encourage a one-sitting, single-appointment root canal treatment, because healing and defense mechanism of an individual is not achieved overnight. Practically, we do careful assessment and case selection of teeth for root canal therapy - for guaranteed long term success; A case may not always be ideal; presence of abscess and anatomic variations add to the difficulty.
