What Happens During a Root Canal?

The first part of a root canal treatment is accessing the interior chamber or the affected tooth and removing the infected pulp. This involves creating a small window in the top biting surface of the tooth, sanitizing the inside, and restoring its structure by filling it with a substance called gutta percha. At a separate appointment, Dr. Pitarra will further protect the tooth and restore its strength by securing a customized dental crown over the top of it.
