Root Canal Brisbane QLD
Smiles Dental Care performs root canal therapy, a procedure to remove dead tissue and infected pulp from inside an affected tooth.
Why do I need root canal therapy?
A root canal procedure is necessary when the pulp gets infected due to decay caused by bacteria. If left untreated, the pulp can die and the resulting infection can form an abscess in the jawbone. If this infection spreads further it will result in swelling, severe pain and could be life threatening. This is why root canal therapy is necessary to seal off the infection and prevent further issues.
