The procedure involves removing the damaged or infected tissue from the inside of the tooth, cleaning the area, and then filling and sealing the tooth to prevent further damage.

What is the procedure for a Root Canal Treatment?
First, we'll apply local anesthesia to numb the tooth and surrounding area. A small opening is made in the tooth's crown to access the damaged or infected tissue, which is then carefully removed. The tooth's interior is cleaned and disinfected before being filled with a specialized material. Finally, a crown is placed over the tooth to shield it from further damage and restore its functionality, preventing the possibility of future extraction.
