Root Canal Process


They drill a hole in the tooth and file out 1/3 of the roots which reside in the canals.  Root canals began many years ago when a dentist thought he might be able to save a tooth doing this.  So, he practiced on rabbits in his basement.  it worked, but bacteria reside in all of them and most have to be pulled eventually anyway.  Root canals were not founded on a legitimate scientific methodology, nor do they represent a natural process.  (Most Curezonians are very picky about what goes in their body, food-wise and medically). Taking out those 1/3 roots kills the tooth.  When a tooth dies it becomes brittle;  Thus, the need for a crown to keep it from chipping or cracking. 

Removing the Infected/Inflamed Tissue

Special files are used to clean the infection and unhealthy pulp out of the canals. Irrigation is used to help clean the main canal (called lateral canals).

Filling the Canals

The canals are filled with a permanent material, often gutta-percha. This helps to keep the canals free of infection or contamination.

Rebuilding the Tooth

A temporary filling material is placed on top of the gutta-percha to seal the opening until the tooth is ready to be prepared for a crown. A crown, sometimes called a cap, is made to look like a natural tooth, and is placed on top.
