WHAT IS A ROOT CANAL?

Root canals restore damaged teeth without having to extract them. Teeth are naturally covered by enamel that protects them, but inside the tooth, there is a soft pulp tissue containing nerves and blood vessels. These nerves and blood vessels keep the tooth healthy. If the interior of a tooth is damaged by decay, cracked, or chipped, the pulp can become inflamed or infected, which can cause swelling and pain. The infected pulp needs to be removed before the canal is then cleaned and shaped to seal the pulp chamber.

WHAT IS A 
DENTAL CROWN?

A dental crown, sometimes called a cap, is used to restore the strength, function, and appearance of a damaged tooth. Crowns are often used after root canals to protect the tooth from further damage. Crowns can also be used to protect teeth with fillings, teeth in a bridge, or alongside an implant as a way to replace a missing tooth. Crowns are made of metals such as gold, porcelain or ceramic. Call Metro Dental at 404-761-8455 to learn more about how a crown can help you or to schedule an appointment today.
