My experience was great! They helped me and explained the entire process to me and answered all of the questions I had. Throughout the scan, they explained every step they took before they did anything, and made the whole experience very comfortable and relaxed. I would recommend 10/10!
I was very afraid at first, but now after the fact, I can’t believe I was afraid for nothing. It was a very clean and smooth surgery. Only pain was after the anesthesia wore off but it was easily manageable with the painkillers. My dentist was very friendly, professional, well-spoken and thorough.

Learn MoreThe outcomes of Root Canal Treatment can be analyzed in three main categories: aesthetical, health-related, and psychological.
The tooth may be slightly darker in color after the pulp has been removed, but this can often be addressed with a tooth-colored filling or crown.
The health-related outcomes of root canal treatment refer to the overall health of the mouth and the treated tooth. Root canal treatment can help remove infection from the inside of the tooth, which can help prevent further damage to the tooth and the surrounding teeth. It can also help reduce pain and improve oral function.
The procedure is typically not painful, and most patients report feeling relief after the procedure is complete. The success rate of root canal treatment is high, which can help alleviate anxiety and promote a sense of well-being.
The surgery usually takes under an hour. Depending on the presence of infection or abscess there may be a need for another or two more sessions.
During the first visit to the dentist, your dentist will locate the pain, check the changes in the color of the tooth, presence of abscesses and visible evidence of infections, and in some cases may even take an X-ray to confirm their diagnosis.
Your endodontist (dentist) will apply local anesthesia to the nerves surrounding the affected tooth. Then a dental dam or suction will be placed to keep the area clean and dry while the dentist works carries on the operation. A small hole will be drilled into the top of the tooth to enable the dentist to reach the infected pulp. Then through the hole, the dentist will carefully remove the pulp usually via a file. After the pulp is removed, the dentist will clean and disinfect the area to prepare it for filling while preventing any further infection.
A small hole will be drilled into the top of the tooth to enable the dentist to reach the infected pulp. Then through the hole, the dentist will carefully remove the pulp usually via a file. After the pulp is removed, the dentist will clean and disinfect the area to prepare it for filling while preventing any further infection.
The space will be filled with a biologically similar (to the pulp) material called gutta-percha, which will support the tooth for the rest of your life. The material gets heated first to make it pliable, then pressed into the empty space that has been prepared.
After the pulp is replaced with gutta-percha, the hole will be covered with a temporary filling. You may want to replace it with a permanent restoration like a crown later. The crown placement doesn’t take place in the same operation because the affected tooth may become weaker in some cases and may need extra support inside the root chamber, requiring an operation. Also, crowns are not needed for all the teeth, front teeth or canines do not require crowns after root canal treatment, but as they play an important role in chewing, molars and premolars require crowns.
After the surgery you may go home with your prescription for antibiotics. If you are prone to infections or the infected tooth was severely infected, your dentist may require you to come to the office to make sure the infection has dissipated completely.
Every medical treatment comes with a set of risks and complications. Root Canal treatment can have these possible complications:
After the operation you can drive to work, school or home as local anesthesia is used and will not cause any problems. In a few days, the sensitivity and discomfort associated with the operation in the operated area will subside. You should take the antibiotics your dentist prescribed, regularly. You should keep good oral hygiene in order to prevent any further infections.
Over the counter painkillers should help with the pain, your dentist may even prescribe some. If the pain becomes severe and doesn’t go away with painkillers, you should make an appointment with your dentist for an examination. You can brush and floss your teeth regularly. Due to sensitivity in the area you may want to avoid chewing hard foods or may want to chew on the other side of your mouth. Tooth color may change over time for some people. It may be caused by internal bleeding in the tooth which stains the tooth and causes discoloration. You can have whitening done if you’d like to.
After meeting with your dentist at their office during your consultation you express your expectations and the dentist checks the condition of your teeth. They will inform you about their professional opinion while taking your expectations and the condition of your teeth into consideration. Then, photos of your teeth will be taken for a 3D simulation. The size, model and color can be decided by you, and you can even choose the color from the tooth color chart. After deciding, on the first operation day teeth will be scraped and if there is a need for an extraction it will also take place on the first day. Temporary veneers will be put on and your dentist will prescribe you with painkillers and antibiotics. You will stay at the hotel for about 4-5 days. During your stay you will be visited by a wellbeing specialist, and if you’re having any problems your dentist will be contacted. After these 4-5 days, your permanent veneer will be applied and it will be all done.
