Root canal therapy is very effective in restoring damaged or infected teeth and avoiding the necessity for an extraction. It is a surgical procedure carried out by a dentist or endodontist which removes damaged nerve tissue from the centre of the affected tooth. There are three steps to the procedure: – The tooth is numbed – Damaged tissue is extracted – The tooth is sealed Full recovery after the treatment can take a couple of weeks and it important “stick to softer foods during this time” to avoid complications. Some pain or discomfort can be expected but this can usually be treated with over-the-counter medications.
