A root canal is an endodontic procedure where infected dental pulp is removed from the tooth and the canal is filled with special material, and a final restoration is placed on the top of the tooth. Given the front-facing nature of the teeth undergoing root canal treatment in this procedure, your dentist at Dr Johns will be able to suggest a wide variety of options regarding final restoration so as to provide you with a solution that matches the colour and look of your remaining healthy teeth.
