Root canal treatment is the care of the tooth's nerve. It must be performed when a cavity is too deep, whether it causes pain or not, and when the tooth is becoming infected.
The treatment takes place under local anesthesia and is completely painless. It will take two appointments to complete the root canal treatment. Indeed, it requires a first session to disinfect the nerve, followed by a second one to seal the roots so that bacteria do not return inside the tooth.
Le traitement de racine est un traitement qui fragilise tout de même la dent et nécessite une restauration par une crown or an onlay. This ensures an even distribution of chewing forces across the entire tooth, thereby preventing a fracture that would lead to its loss.
