La Terapia de Conducto Radicular
¿Qué es la terapia de conducto radicular?
La terapia de conducto radicular está diseñada para corregir desórdenes en la pulpa dental -- el tejido blando que está alrededor de los dientes y que contiene nervios, vasos de la sangre y tejido conectivo. Antes los dientes con nervios infectados o con absceso se extraían con terapia correctiva. Sin embargo, actualmente en el 95 por ciento de los casos de infección pulpar, el diente natural puede salvarse mediante procedimientos endodónticos modernos. (También conocidos como especialistas de la pulpa, los endodoncistas han recibido entrenamiento especializado para realizar la terapia de conducto radicular.)

\"Tratamiento\" y \"conducto\" igualmente se usan mucho en el contexto.

tratamiento de conducto/canal radicular


Explanation:
I just realised that everyone has assumed you mean the root canal treatment, which would be "tratamiento de conducto". But if you want the part of the tooth, it would be "canal radicular". But it is true that in English, the name for the treatment, as it appears on a list of services, often is just "root canal", without the word "treatment", so it may well refer to the treatment - you will know that from the context, I'm sure.
