Frequently
Asked
Questions

It’s natural to have questions about root canal treatment. Here are answers to some of the most common concerns we hear from patients, explained clearly and simply.
What exactly is a root canal treatment?

A root canal is a dental procedure used to treat infection inside a tooth. It involves removing the inflamed or infected pulp, cleaning and shaping the root canals, and sealing the tooth to prevent further problems. This process helps save your natural tooth and relieve pain.

How do I know if I need a root canal?

Typical signs include persistent toothache, sensitivity to hot or cold, swelling, tenderness, or darkening of the tooth. If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, it's best to book a dental assessment as soon as possible.

Is a root canal painful?

No, root canal treatment is performed under local anaesthetic, so you shouldn’t feel pain during the procedure. You may experience some discomfort afterwards, but this is usually mild and temporary.

How long does the root canal procedure take?

The length of treatment varies, but most root canals can be completed in one or two visits. Your dentist will advise you based on the condition of your tooth.

Will I need a crown after the treatment?

In many cases, a crown is recommended after root canal treatment to protect the tooth and restore its strength. Your dentist will provide guidance tailored to your needs.

The Process

Pre-Treatment

Before your root canal, your dentist will examine your symptoms, take X-rays, and discuss the procedure in detail. This helps you feel informed and confident about your treatment.

Treatment

The infected pulp is carefully removed from your tooth. The root canals are then cleaned, shaped, and filled with a biocompatible material. Finally, the tooth is sealed to help prevent reinfection.

Post-Treatment

It’s normal to experience mild discomfort for a few days after treatment. You’ll receive aftercare instructions and may need a follow-up visit to check healing or place a crown.

Sides Effects & Risks

Root canal treatment is generally safe, but risks can include reinfection, tooth fracture, or the need for retreatment. Your dentist will explain any potential concerns specific to your case.

Avoid Delays That Could Lead to Tooth Loss

Untreated dental pulp infections can worsen, leading to severe pain, abscesses, or even tooth extraction. Timely root canal treatment protects both your health and your natural teeth.
