What Happens if You Don’t Get Root Canal Treatment?
Neglecting a Root Canal can lead to severe consequences, including:
- Spread of Infection: Untreated infection may spread to adjacent teeth or other parts of the body.
- Abscess Formation: A dental abscess can develop, causing swelling, pain, and potential bone loss.
- Tooth Loss: In severe cases, the infection can make the tooth unsalvageable, leading to extraction.
- Systemic Infections: Untreated dental infections can lead to more severe health risks beyond the oral cavity.
