During the root canal treatment, pulpa is extracted, inflammation or other types of damage are refined, and after shaping the area, the gap is filled with a proper material by taking account of the teeth, teeth formation and the gingival tissue to treat the infection that develops due to inflammation that happens in the pulpa area. After root canal treatment, medical treatment might be used depending on the severity of inflammation in the area.
