Dental Health Care, How does having a Root Canal save the tooth. Root canal can be done by either a general dentist or in some cases an endodontist specialist. Normally you would go to a general dentist first and if determine that you should see a endodontist the general dentist will refer you to one. The dentist will remove the inflamed or infected pulp that is in the inside of your tooth. Then the tooth is filled up and sealed. If you went to a endodontist dentist for the root canal you would return to your general dentist for a crown. The crown will help to protect your tooth and restore it back to full function.

Even though having a root canal and crown work can be costly, most dentist will advise this procedure in order to save a tooth. Some people feel that having an extraction would be less costly however that is not the case if you are wanting to replace the missing tooth pulled. Leaving gaps in your teeth due to pulling is never a good idea because shifting of your remaining teeth will happen over time. That is why it is a good idea to have dental insurance in place prior to having any major dental services render.
