Root canal treatment, also known as endodontic therapy, is a dental procedure used to save a tooth with a severely damaged or infected pulp (the soft tissue inside the tooth). It involves removing the infected pulp, cleaning and shaping the root canals, and then sealing them with a filling to prevent further infection. This procedure aims to prevent tooth extraction and preserve the tooth’s function and structure.
Yes! Regular cleanings help remove plaque and tartar that brushing at home can’t get rid of. They also help catch small problems before they become big (and expensive!) ones. Think of it like a tune-up for your mouth.

Change your toothbrush (or electric brush head) every 3 months—or sooner if the bristles look worn. A frayed brush doesn’t clean as well and can be tough on your gums.
Common signs include red, swollen, or bleeding gums, especially when brushing or flossing. Bad breath and loose teeth are also warning signs. If you’re unsure, it’s best to get checked—early treatment makes a big difference.
