Most Popular and Trending Questions
Here are some of the most common questions patients ask about endodontic (root canal) treatment:
When do I need root canal treatment?
You may need a root canal if you experience severe tooth pain, prolonged sensitivity, swelling, or infection around a tooth. An endodontist can determine the best treatment.
Is root canal treatment painful?
No. Modern root canal procedures are performed under local anesthesia and are usually no more uncomfortable than getting a dental filling.
How long does a root canal procedure take?
Most root canal treatments are completed in one or two visits, depending on the complexity of the infection.
Can a tooth survive without its nerve?
Yes. After root canal treatment, the tooth remains functional and can last many years with proper restoration and oral hygiene.
