Why do I need a root canal?
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Root canal therapy becomes necessary when the pulp tissue becomes infected or irreparably damaged. The damage to the pulp tissue may stem from any of the following causes: deep decay, a cracked or chipped tooth, repeated or extensive dental work on a tooth or a blow to the tooth. Occasionally, there are times when a severely broken down tooth with healthy pulp tissue needs root canal treatment in order to be properly restored.
