The procedure treats an inflamed or infected pulp caused by deep decay, cracks, trauma, or repeated dental work. After numbing the area, we clean and disinfect the canal space, seal it with a biocompatible material, and usually protect the tooth with a custom crown for long-term strength.
Step 1: Diagnosis. Digital X-rays and a thorough exam confirm the need for treatment.
Step 2: Numbing. Local anesthesia ensures a pain-free visit.
Step 3: Cleaning & Sealing. We remove infected tissue, disinfect the canal, and seal it.
Step 4: Protection. A custom crown is typically recommended to prevent future fracture.
