Root Canal Treatment
Palm Beach & Wellington, FL
Expert Root Canal Care Explained
Under the expert care of Dr. Sadati, we utilize advanced techniques and technology, to ensure precision and comfort during the treatment. When a tooth becomes infected, your body’s defenses are not really equipped to be able to heal it. The reason is that the inside of a tooth is a confined space, and there is no room for swelling or bringing in white blood cells to fight the infection. So as the infected pulp tissue tries to swell, it becomes strangled and dies, and the infection begins to spread into the bone around the apex of the tooth. This is why antibiotics don’t work for an infection inside a tooth. When a tooth becomes infected, we need to remove the infected tissue and seal the tooth. This is called a Root Canal Treatment.
