What Is Endodontic Treatment?

Root canal treatment is a treatment sequence for the infected pulp of a tooth which is intended to result in the elimination of infection and the protection of the decontaminated tooth from future microbial invasion.

What is an example of endodontic treatment?

As an example, if the pulp of the tooth has infection or inflammation due to deep decay, a chip or crack, endodontic treatment will solve the problem. The endodontic treatment removes the inflamed/infected pulp, cleans the inside of the tooth, disinfects it, and fills/seals the tooth.
