Start with the right diagnosis.
Not every toothache needs a root canal. An examination and appropriate imaging help us identify whether the nerve inside the tooth is inflamed or infected and which treatment makes sense.
Reasons to call

What treatment involves
Root canal treatment removes infected or inflamed tissue from inside the tooth, cleans and seals the space, and helps preserve the natural tooth. A final restoration may be needed afterward to protect it.
