here's some dental info:


what is pulpectomy?

a common endodontic procedure in which the dental pulp and root canal are completely removed. This procedure is usually done on primary teeth (chilren’s teeth) by a pediatric dentist.

Pulpectomy is necessary in instances where the pulp of a tooth have become infected due to deep decay or a crack within the tooth and needs to be removed entirely. If left alone the infection in the tooth will spread and cause further damage to the bone around the tooth. This can lead to the tooth falling out.
