What is a dental root canal?
A dental root canal is a procedure in which the infected or inflamed pulp inside a tooth is removed, cleaned, and filled with a special material.
The pulp is the soft tissue inside the tooth that contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. When the pulp becomes infected or inflamed, it can cause severe pain, sensitivity, and other symptoms.
