Root canal treatment can help save your damaged tooth. When the pulp is diseased or injured and unable to repair itself, the pulp dies. If the damaged or diseased pulp is not removed, the tooth and surrounding tissues become infected. Without treatment, your tooth could eventually have to be removed.
