To understand it, you need to know that a tooth has two parts: the inside part and the outside protective part. The inside part helps the tooth grow, but once the tooth is fully grown, the outside part becomes important for protection. If there&#8217;s a problem like a crack or a hole in the inside part i.e. the pulp, it hurts because of veins and blood vessels. To fix this, dentists do a root canal. They make a hole in the hard outer part of the tooth, take out the bad stuff inside, and fill it with a special material. Then, they use a bright light to kill any germs around the treated tooth. This helps stop the pain, makes the tooth strong, and keeps it safe from infections.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_a_Cracked_Tooth_be_Saved\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Can a Cracked Tooth be Saved?<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, it can be. A root canal-treated tooth is more vulnerable to cracking than the original one. Because the original tooth is harder and can endure pressure to a great extent the cemented tooth has a fixed capacity for pressure acceptance. So the tooth gets cracked even after the root canal.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Does_the_Procedure_Work\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How Does the Procedure Work?<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The general steps are as follows;<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"
