Root canal treatment is designed to remove infected or damaged tissue from inside a tooth, disinfect the root canal system, and seal it against future infection. However, root canals often contain narrow branches, curves, and microscopic spaces that are difficult to reach with dental instruments alone.

Tooth pain does not always mean you need root canal treatment, but certain symptoms should not be ignored. When the soft tissue inside a tooth becomes inflamed or infected, timely endodontic care can relieve discomfort, remove the damaged tissue, and help preserve your natural tooth.
