A root canal is a dental procedure that aims to treat infection or damage within the tooth’s pulp. During the procedure, the infected or damaged pulp is removed, the interior of the tooth is cleaned and disinfected, and then it is filled and sealed to prevent further infection.

Research indicates that maintaining a healthy smile with all your natural teeth contributes to overall well-being, making the investment in root canal therapy to save a tooth worthwhile. Moreover, the cost of this treatment is significantly lower than that of a dental bridge or implants. There is no need to fear the procedure either, as root canal treatment is as comfortable as getting a tooth filled. The best part is that it alleviates the pain caused by toothaches and infections, which will persist without the treatment.

When Do You Need Root Canal Treatment?

What happens if I don’t get a root canal?

Like many other dental issues, patients may neglect to get a root canal due to cost, lack of understanding of its importance, or fear of the procedure. However, postponing this treatment can lead to severe consequences. The infection will worsen, jeopardising your oral health and potentially spreading to other parts of your body, which can be life-threatening in some cases.
