Root canal treatment is a way of saving a tooth that otherwise needs removal due to an abscess, small fracture, or deep tooth decay.
A root canal involves removal of the pulp (nerve) from the tooth and replacing it with a rubber insert material.
After root canal treatment is complete, a crown should be placed in order to give the tooth strength.
Not all teeth can be saved by root canals.
