Root canal procedure is preferred over-extraction because it is always better to maintain a healthy, natural smile whenever possible. Root canals allow for just that. Extracting and replacing a tooth involves more time, expense and risks impacting neighboring teeth and supporting gums.
Root Canal is an Endodontic treatment, Greek for “inside tooth.”

The tooth illustration shows you inside the tooth, under two hard layers (enamel and dentin) is a soft tissue called the pulp.

During Growth and development of the tooth, pulp is important but once mature, the tooth can survive without the pulp.
