FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Does root canal treatment hurt?

Modern root canal treatment is virtually painless. We use advanced techniques and local anesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. Most patients report that the procedure is no more uncomfortable than getting a filling. The treatment actually relieves the pain caused by the infected tooth.

How long does the procedure take?

A typical root canal procedure takes between 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the complexity of the case and the number of canals in the tooth. Some teeth may require multiple visits, especially if there's extensive infection or if the tooth has complex root structures.

Is a crown necessary after root canal?

Yes, in most cases a crown is recommended after root canal treatment to protect and strengthen the treated tooth. The crown provides long-term protection against fractures and ensures the tooth can function normally. Your dentist will discuss the best type of restoration for your specific case.

What's the recovery period like?

Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure. You might experience mild sensitivity for a few days, which is normal and can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication. Any discomfort typically subsides within 1-2 weeks, and your dentist will provide specific aftercare instructions.
