What Happens During a Root Canal?
The first thing that Dr. Lim will do prior to your root canal is ensure that your mouth is adequately numbed—after all, this procedure is meant to alleviate pain! Once this has been handled, he will create an opening into the tooth’s inner chamber, known as the pulp. He’ll then carefully remove the damaged/infected area before sanitizing the tooth, filling it with a special material called gutta-percha, and then sealing it back up. Following your root canal, a customized dental crown will be placed on the treated tooth.
