Modern root canal therapy is not painful. We use effective local anesthesia so you feel no pain during treatment. Most patients experience immediate relief from pre-treatment pain. Any mild discomfort after treatment typically resolves within a few days.
Most root canals can be completed in 1-2 visits, with each appointment lasting 60-90 minutes. Simple cases may be finished in one visit, while complex cases may require multiple appointments for optimal results.
The main alternative is tooth extraction followed by replacement with an implant, bridge, or partial denture. However, saving your natural tooth with root canal therapy is usually the best option for function, comfort, and cost.
Root canal therapy has a 95% success rate. Most treated teeth last a lifetime with proper care. Success depends on the extent of damage, your oral hygiene, and getting a proper crown restoration.
Yes, you can drive home after root canal therapy. We use local anesthesia, not sedation, so you'll be alert and able to drive. The numbness will wear off within a few hours.
Most teeth need crowns after root canal therapy to protect the remaining tooth structure. Back teeth almost always need crowns, while front teeth may sometimes be restored with just a filling, depending on the amount of remaining tooth.
