Endodontic treatment, also known as root canal treatment, is the procedure used to remove all or part of the pulp from the tooth and seal the pulp canal. The pulp is the innermost part of the tooth and consists of soft tissue that contains the nerves and blood vessels. The part of the canal that is inside the crown is called the pulp cavity, while the part corresponding to the root is called the reticular canal and is the one that connects to the maxillary bone.

The most frequent cause of infection and consequent inflammation and necrosis of the pulp, and therefore the need to perform an endodontic treatment , is the presence of caries, although there are other factors that can lead to pulpitis or pulp injury:

To perform an endodontic treatment it is necessary to anesthetize the area where the treatment will be performed. A hole is then made in the crown of the tooth to access the pulp and remove it. The canal is then cleaned before sealing it and the crown with specific materials. At the end of the procedure, the tooth will be completely numbed and isolated from any other part of the body. Follow-up will be necessary to check the effectiveness and progress of the endodontic treatment.
