Root canal therapy is needed if a large decay, trauma, or chip reaches the pulp of your teeth, the infected pulp can cause symptoms such as pain, sensitivity to temperature, and swelling of the gum mainly. During the procedure, the injured pulp is removed, and the root canal is cleaned and sealed in order to preserve and save your natural tooth, preventing larger and more expensive treatments.
