Root canals are common dental procedures in which the nerve and pulp are removed from the inside of a tooth in the event of decay or infection. At Kiwan Dental Care & Dental Implants Center, we offer this procedure so that you can be spared not only the pain but the possibility of your condition worsening and causing abscesses. After the nerve and pulp are removed, the tooth is then cleaned out and sealed, preventing further infection. While slightly painful and uncomfortable, root canals are extremely effective and will benefit you in the long run.
