Root canal treatment is a highly effective procedure with a good prognosis for success.
Getting root canal treatment rather than an extraction has many advantages. It can reduce and eliminate pain to eat and drink properly. It also reduces the risks of further tooth damage, leading to more complex and expensive treatments, like dental implants, to replace missing teeth.
After a root canal process, if you maintain proper oral hygiene, your root canal can last for many years.
Other advantages of getting a root canal:
Improves chewing
Protects other teeth from being removed and maintains the integrity of your teeth
What to Expect
Dental bridges can be created to help restore your smile and function like your natural, permanent teeth. Bridges for teeth can be completed in two to three visits: an initial preparation visit, a follow-up fit visit, and an insert/delivery visit.
Before Treatment
A root canal may be needed when you face problems, including decay that has reached the living tissue inside the tooth (tooth pulp), infection, dental abscess inside the tooth or the root tip, or injury to the tooth.
During Treatment
A root canal procedure typically requires one to three appointments and is performed by a dentist or an endodontist (a root canal specialist).
After Treatment
After a root canal, the tooth should have a dental crown (cap) set to help protect the tooth and prevent it from cracking or breaking.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you know if you need a root canal?
You may experience severe pain, sensitivity to hot and cold, or swelling. However, sometimes no symptoms will be present. It’s important to contact your dentist if you suspect your tooth has decayed significantly.
What happens when you avoid root canal treatment?
If you need a root canal, you should not avoid dental care. It is best to treat the infected tooth promptly for the best outcome. If left untreated, the infection can spread further and cause tooth loss.
