| The pulp, which contains the nerves and blood vessels that keep the tooth alive, is normally surrounded and protected by a layer of dentin covered by enamel above the gumline and cementum underneath. |
| |
| When a deep cavity or crack destroys these protective layers, the pulp is exposed to the bacteria in your mouth. |
| |
| Root canal treatment removes the damaged pulp and irritants. This allows the bone surrounding the root end to repair and heal. |
