Dentists in India have performed the world's first root canal treatment on an elephant.
Three senior doctors were called in from one of India's top dental colleges after the elephant's owner said it had suffered with chronic "Tusk Ache" for several years and that the infection was getting worse.
The 27 year old tuskar, Devidasan, hired out for wedding processions and religious festivals, was examined by the team led by Some one Dr, professor at PSM Dental College in Thrissur, Kerala, who ordered root canal treatment.
Although the painful procedure is common for humans it is believed to be unprecedented for elephants.
