What you need to know
A tooth may need root canal treatment when decay, cracks, trauma, or deep restorations affect the nerve. The dentist will examine symptoms, X-rays, and restorability before recommending treatment.
The goal is to relieve pain, clean the infected canal system, and seal the tooth properly. A crown may be recommended afterwards depending on tooth strength.
