Root filling, or root canal treatment, does not kill the tooth; rather, it is a procedure designed to save a tooth that is infected or damaged. During the process, the dentist removes the infected pulp tissue, cleans and disinfects the root canals, and then fills them with a biocompatible material. Although the tooth is no longer alive in the sense that it lacks nerve and blood supply, it can still function normally and remain in the mouth for many years if properly cared for.
