Root canal treatment is a treatment method applied when the pulp tissue inside the tooth is infected or damaged. This process involves cleaning and disinfecting the root canals of the tooth and then filling the canal cavities with filling material. Root canal treatment prevents tooth extraction and ensures its long-lasting use. Since it is one of the most preferred methods in the treatment of decayed teeth, root canal treatment prices are frequently wondered.
