• Root canal treatment is the process in which a
  badly decayed infected tooth can be saved. The
  procedure basically involves the removal of nerve
  and pulp, then the inside of the teeth are
  cleaned and sealed. If this is not done on time
  then bacteria would multiply inside the pulp
  chamber and cause an infection or abscessed
  teeth. It can also lead to bone loss at the tip
  of the tooth root. In these situations, root
  canal therapy can prove to be really helpful.
• Many of us are very scared about root canals
  since they think they are painful. As a matter of
  fact, the vast majority report that the method
  itself is not any more difficult than having a
  filling in the teeth. The discomfort experienced
  in the period paving the way to looking for
  dental care is genuinely painful, not the
  procedure itself. And an expert endodontist knows
  exactly how to treat the affected teeth so that
  your natural smile can be retained.

• When should you visit an endodontist?
• If you are facing severe tooth pain, then consult
  your endodontist immediately. The longer you
  leave the condition untreated, the more you would
  have to suffer. Taking pain killers is not an
  effective solution, as the problem needs to be
  treated. If not, then it would lead to severe
  complications that would intensify your pain and
  would be quite tough to treat as well.

  basically depends on the cause of tooth pain. On
  approaching your endodontist, he/she would
  conduct a thorough check-up followed by dental
  X-ray if needed. After identifying the problem,

  have to undergo tooth extraction. This is not
  only done to prevent the pain but also to prevent
  all the other teeth from getting affected.
