FAQs - Root Canal Treatment
A root canal is an endodontic procedure that involves removing the infected or damaged pulp from inside a tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the canals, and sealing them to restore the tooth’s function and health.
You may need a root canal if you have severe tooth pain, prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold, swelling in the gums, or an abscess (infection) around the tooth. These symptoms typically indicate that the pulp is infected or inflamed.
Most patients report that root canal treatment is no more painful than having a routine filling. Local anesthesia is used to numb the area, and sedation options are available for those with dental anxiety.
The duration of a root canal can vary, but it typically takes between one to two hours. Same-day treatments may also be available for certain cases.
In many cases, a crown is recommended after a root canal to restore the tooth’s strength and protect it from future damage. Your dentist will discuss this with you during your visit.
After the procedure, you may experience mild discomfort or swelling, which can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. Most patients can return to their normal activities within a day.
Root canal treatment has a high success rate, often over 90%. With proper care and regular dental check-ups, treated teeth can last a lifetime.
It’s best to wait until the anesthesia wears off before eating to avoid biting your cheek or tongue. Your dentist will provide specific recommendations regarding diet after the procedure.
Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing regularly. Follow your dentist’s post-treatment instructions and schedule any necessary follow-up appointments to ensure proper healing.
The primary alternative to a root canal is tooth extraction. However, saving the natural tooth is usually preferable for overall oral health, so your dentist will discuss the best options for your situation.
