NO
No. It depends on the nature of the infection. For instance if the infection is related to the gum, it may not need a root canal
Depending on the situation not always it could sometimes be a periodontal problem
When the nerve of a tooth becomes infected there are two treatment options; root canal or extraction. Speak to your dentist for advice on which option is best for you.
