Root canal treatment refers to the treatment of the inner aspects of a tooth, specifically that area inside a tooth originally occupied by the tooth’s “pulp tissue”.
Most people would probably refer to a tooth’s pulp tissue as its “nerve”. While a tooth’s pulp tissue does contain nerve fibers it is also composed of arteries, veins, lymph vessels, and connective tissue.
For the purposes of this discussion, so to use a term people seem to be most familiar with, we will use the terms “nerve” and “nerve tissue” to refer to a tooth’s pulp tissue….
I was so conscious of the state of my teeth. Having this treatment has changed my life.
...I had no doubts or worries about the treatment process or trip. I was given information on aftercare, do's and don'ts. I was also given a guarantee of 2 years on the fillings and 3 years on the crowns, something I had never been given from a UK dentist
