The pulp is the soft area in the center of the tooth. The root canal travels from the root of the tooth to the pulp chamber containing connective tissues and blood vessels that nourish the teeth.
When the pulp or the nerve tissue is damaged, bacteria start building up in the pulp chamber. This can causes a serious infection or abscess. An abscess is a pus-filled pocked formed at the end of tooth’s root. Apart from an abscess, a slightest infection in the root canal may also give rise to the following problems:
A deep decay, large filings or repeated dental procedures can cause irritation and inflammation of the pulp or the tooth nerve. Moreover, a crack or a chip in the tooth too can lead to pulp infection.
