ROOT CANAL- Root canal is a soft connective tissue consisting of nerves and blood vessels. One can say that root canal is the living part of the tooth. Root canal can get damaged due to several reasons but the most common cause is cavity. When cavity reaches the inner part of tooth the root canal gets infected with bacteria and gets inflamed and it causes severe pain.
