Root canal treatment is also known as Endodontic treatment. It is sometimes necessary to save a tooth that has been too badly damaged due to decay, disease or injury.
Saving the tooth is the objective of root canal treatment. There is nothing stronger and better than your own tooth for biting and chewing.
After the treatment has been successfully completed, it is also very important to consider protecting and strengthening the weakened tooth with a ceramic crown. This is done to ensure the tooth does not break and also protects from re-infection.
