This is when the nerve of the tooth has died and your tooth typically is extremely painful when biting and is throbbing.  Remnants of dead nerve and bacteria is removed and disinfected to relieve pain and save the tooth. Usually a root canal is performed over two appointments.

• The root canal which houses the nerve must be cleansed of all remnants of the dead nerve and disinfected. The root canal is then filled with a rubber-like substance called gutta percha and a new generation bioceramic cement is used as a sealer
  
• This creates a seal at the top and bottom of the root canal, which prevents bacteria and other microorganisms from colonising and infecting the root canal system causing pain. This prevention of microbial colonisation allows the tissues around the tooth to heal, relieving toothache
• Root canal treatment saves the tooth and prevents the tooth from having to be extracted
