Root Canal: What Is All About?
Until recently, if you had a badly decayed or infected tooth, you couldn’t save it. You had no choice but to yank it out. If you didn’t, an abscess formed on the gum. As it accumulated toxins, it caused pain and, if left long enough, could even damage your jawbone. When the abscess broke open, it released its collected poisons into your bloodstream, often causing you to become violently ill. Luckily, the advances in today’s technology allow the dentist to focus on repairing and saving your teeth.
