Root Canal Treatment
Root canals of teeth is a hollow present in the core of the tooth itself. They is nestled vascular nerve bundle that gives "life" of each tooth. When the nerves and blood vessels are healthy tooth is vital.

When the pulp is no longer protected, millions of bacteria present in the oral cavity easily enters through the root canal and reach the jaw bones. As a result, there was obtained an inflammatory process, leading to swelling, pain, "melting" of the bone, high body temperature, and others. This condition is called periodontitis, and may lead to loss of the tooth. If the dentist decides that the tooth can be saved, performed root-canal treatment.
