Endodontics is the dental specialty concerned with the treatment of the dental pulp. Root canal treatment is an Endodontics procedure used to preserve a tooth when the dental pulp has been damaged. The pulp contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue in the teeth. So, when the pulp becomes infected, nerves have to be removed and the root canals has to be cleaned.
