When teeth develop dental decay, the spread of the cavity over time damages the enamel and dentin. Eventually, the cavity extends to the pulp of the tooth. This area has the blood and nervous supply to the tooth. Since this area is a closed space the infection can not easily resolve and the pulp becomes infected and necrotic. The patient usually feels pain and at times significant swelling develops. The treatment involves removal of infected pulp chamber and replacement with special material that permanently seal the tooth.
