Root Canals
Root canals are a very small, thin divisions that branch off from the top dental pulp chamber of a tooth down to the tip of the root. A tooth can have between one and four root canals.
What is the Dental Pulp?
The pulp is the soft tissue that contains nerves, blood vessels and connective tissue. Pulp lies within the tooth and extends from the crown of the tooth to the tip of the root in the bone of the jaws.
Injury to Dental Pulp
Disease or injury to the dental pulp can be caused by an infected tooth or tooth decay. Injury to the dental pulp can also be caused by a cracked tooth or a deep cavity. When the pulp is diseased or injured and can't repair itself, it dies.
