Root Canal Treatment in Foothill Ranch, CA
What is a Root Canal?
A root canal is a restorative procedure that removes infected or damaged tissue from inside your tooth. When decay or injury reaches the tooth’s pulp—the soft inner layer containing nerves and blood vessels—infection can develop and cause significant pain. During treatment, Dr. Irvani carefully cleans the interior chamber, disinfects the area, and seals the tooth to prevent further problems. This allows you to keep your natural tooth rather than extracting it.
