FAQ about Endodontics
When do I need a root canal?
Endodontics is needed when the tooth is internally infected or damaged. It could happen for several reasons, including:
- Deep cavities
- Dental trauma
- Tooth fracture
- Gum infection
Is endodontic treatment painful?
We use local anesthesia for these procedures, which makes the treatment painless. It’s possible that in some cases you may feel some discomfort for a few days after treatment, due to inflammation, but that’s normal.
How do I know if I need a root canal?
Signs and symptoms of a root canal include:
- Pain localized in the tooth, especially when chewing, eating or drinking hot/cold things.
- Sensitivity to cold or heat
- Change in the tooth color
What care should I take with a root canal tooth?
A root canal tooth requires the same care as a healthy tooth. Brush your teeth every 3 times per day and have regular check-ups and x-rays with your dentist.
What happens if a root canal does not work?
A root canal retreatment would be performed to repair a failed root canal. This can happen for several reasons, including:
- Tooth fracture
- Root resorption
- Infection
