What Causes Tooth Pulp Infection?
The pulp inside your tooth can become infected due to:
- Deep cavities reaching the nerve
- Cracks or fractures in the tooth
- Trauma or injury
- Large or failing fillings
- Untreated decay over time
Once infected, the pulp cannot heal on its own and must be removed to save the tooth.
