Root canal treatment is needed when the tooth’s root becomes infected or inflamed through injury or advanced decay. Special files are used to clean the infection and unhealthy pulp out of the canals. Irrigation is used to help clean the main canal and lateral canals. A pernmanent core build-up material is placed on top of the gutta-percha to seal the opening. A crown, also called a cap, is made to look like a natural tooth, and is placed on. In some cases, a post is placed to give the core extra support. The crown is cemented into place.
