Root Canal

EXPLANATION

Your Health Depends on Dental Hygiene

A root canal is a treatment that cleans out the sick nerve inside a tooth and seals it so the tooth can stay in your mouth. 

A way to stop pain, remove infection, and save your natural tooth so you can still bite and chew normally.

A Root Canal is Not

Not a procedure that spreads infection; it actually removes bacteria and helps prevent serious dental or body health problems.

Why it Matters for Health

An infected tooth can spread germs to nearby teeth, jawbone, and even into the bloodstream, which can affect the rest of the body.

Root Canal vs. Extraction

Pulling teeth instead of saving them can lead to bone loss over time, causing the jaw to shrink and making your face look older or “sunken.”
