Cómo te dices "root canal" en español (de México, si hay una diferencia)

How do you say "root canal" in Spanish (from Mexico, if there is a difference)

I tried the translator and came up with a couple of options, but neither one of them made sense to my friend.

Answer 1

• something to do with teeth?? - Heidita Jan 28, 2010
• Sí, es un procedimiento dental donde se perfore en las raíces de los dientes - aloshek Jan 28, 2010

Answer 2

Try this link :-

Endodoncia

Any use?

Answer 3

Yessssssss, I knew it! jeje

This would be:

el conducto de la raiz de la muela (en el que se hace muchas veces una endodoncia)

I think that would clear things up.

The technica word is: conducto radicular

• Traté "conducto radicular" pero mi amigo no entendía...hmmm - aloshek Jan 28, 2010
• Did you know what a root canal was before you had one? I remember still when I learned what it was/is..... - Janice Jan 28, 2010

Answer 4

And the winner is...endodoncia!!! Gracias a todos!
