Frequently Asked Questions

Root canal therapy is required if your tooth becomes infected, which most often happens one of two ways:

A serious cavity can eat away at the outer layers of your enamel and dentin until it reaches the pulp. Once the pulp, which is responsible for keeping your tooth alive, is exposed, it becomes vulnerable to bacteria and becomes infected.
Dental trauma that cracks or chips a tooth can expose the nerve and blood vessel-filled pulp to oral bacteria.

If left untreated, either situation will lead to the infection, decay, and eventual death of your tooth’s pulp. When the infection starts to take hold, you’ll likely begin experiencing an array of symptoms like a toothache, inflamed gums near the tooth, and tooth sensitivity.

Root canal therapy has a success rate of over 95%, making failure very uncommon. Although it’s rare, root canal treatment can fail, and the reason for failure is not always readily apparent. One reason an infection may return is if there is any remaining bacteria or decay left behind that wasn’t removed during the initial root canal. If this happens to you, you’ll need to have another root canal to ensure the infection is completely removed and doesn’t have a chance to return again.
