Unfortunately you really can't. It's the weakening of the root for unknown reasons, becomes either infected or begins to loose its strength that causes the canal to need repair. Eat healthier. Try to keep your gums strengthened, your teeth free from tartar, and visit your dentist as needed. Don't use abrasives, they can make your teeth sensitive and expose your roots, which can be painful.
