Root Canal Treatment: Saving an Infected Tooth
Facial swelling, fever or difficulty swallowing needs prompt assessment.
Root canal treatment removes inflamed or infected tissue from inside a tooth, then cleans and seals the space. I first confirm the diagnosis and explain whether the tooth can be restored predictably afterwards.
What I will help you check
- Your symptoms, nerve tests and imaging findings.
- The remaining tooth structure and need for a final restoration.
- Alternatives, expected stages and signs that need urgent attention.
Ask me: Can this tooth be saved predictably, and what happens after the root canal?
