When this medical procedure is applied the tooth&#8217;s root and neighbouring tissues are already infected, causing pain.<\/p>\n<p>This is the speciality of Dentistry that aims to preserve the tooth by preventing, diagnosing, treating and controlling alterations to the pulp and peri-root tissues. The pulp space is prepared and cleaned and then filled with a biocompatible material. This helps to seal the dental canals in order to prevent bacteria from entering the adjacent hard tissues.<\/p>\n<p>Our dental clinic works with the best professionals. We are duly equipped for all treatments and operations you need to have stronger teeth from the inside.
