Root canal treatment - also known as endodontics - is a dental procedure that is designed to treat infection or decay that has occurred at the centre of the tooth.

Root canal treatment is designed to save the tooth and prevent the spread of infection. The damaged pulp is removed from the tooth, and the root canal is then cleaned of all bacteria. After the bacteria has been removed, the root canal and pulp are filled in using an artificial substance, before being sealed.

Is root canal treatment painful?

Root canal treatment is commonly perceived as being a painful procedure. In fact, root canal treatment is relatively painless, and it should be no more unpleasant than having a filling done.
