How to know if you need Root Canal Therapy
If you have a cracked or chipped tooth, swollen gums, or advanced decay from untreated cavities, you may need a root canal. You may also need one if you have tooth pain that doesn’t go away when you chew or bite, or if your teeth are sensitive to hot or cold. These signs usually mean that there is an infection or inflammation in the tooth’s pulp, which is the soft tissue inside the tooth that contains nerves and connective tissue.
