Dental Care: The Dreaded Root Canal
Sometimes, when you have a toothache, the cause is due to the tooth
being severely decayed. If the toothache is causing you severe pain,
the never on the inside of the tooth may be dying or already dead. If
this is the case, you’ll need to either have the tooth extracted or the
nerve removed from the tooth, in order to remove the abscess. Removing
the nerve will save the tooth, and is known as a root canal.
