Root canal treatment, commonly known as dugan root, is a type of professional dental surgery designed to save severely infected or damaged teeth. When dental nerve tissue (pulp) is infected or damaged, root canal treatment can remove infected tissue, clean, disinfect, and seal the root canal system, thereby preserving natural tooth decay. This process usually takes 1 to 2 visits to complete. After treatment, teeth are repaired (usually with crowns) to restore their function and beauty. Root canal treatment can not only effectively relieve dental pain, but also prevent the spread of infection and protect overall oral health. Although some patients may be concerned about this procedure, modern technology and anaesthesia methods have made root canal treatment relatively comfortable and effective.
