Root canal, explained

What a root canal is

A root canal treats an infected or badly damaged tooth from the inside, so you can keep it. It has a reputation, but your dentist numbs the area and works carefully. A visit covers:

Why the tooth needs treatment
What the steps involve
What to expect afterward

Is a root canal as bad as people say?

Myth
Root canals are always painful.
Fact
Most of the discomfort comes from the infection, not the treatment. Your dentist numbs the area first and explains each step.
