Endodontics:
Inside your tooth is the pulp (which is running like a thread through the root). When the pulp is diseased or injured, the pulp tissue dies.

After the dentist removes the pulp, the root canal is cleaned and sealed off to protect it. Then usually a crown is placed over your toot to help make it stronger.
