For instance, your cavity may start out as a relatively minor issue, but the longer you wait to treat it, the more extensive your tooth infection will become.

With advanced endodontic treatment, your dentist can save your tooth and relieve those symptoms by carefully removing the infected tissues, as well as any lingering bacteria, from the pulp and root canal.
