Endodontic FAQ
Will I feel pain during the procedure?
​Absolutely not! Since you are given local anesthesia, a root canal treatment procedure is pain free. You may feel pressure, but no pain. With modern local anesthetic and methods of their delivery, we can guarantee absolutely painless experience of root canal treatment.
In some cases, we call them “hot tooth” cases, it requires a few steps to get patient absolutely numb.
Will I feel pain after the procedure?
After the treatment, you may feel some discomfort, especially if there was pain or infection before the procedure. We provide you with a post-op instruction on how and when to use pain medications. However, if you experience a severe pain and swelling , please give our office a call.
Who performs endodontic treatment?
An Endodontist is a dentist with advanced two or more years of additional training in all aspect of root canal therapy and microsurgery.
Endodontists are limiting their practices to perform only endodontic procedures, from routine clinical cases to a very complex endodontic cases such as calcified canals, complex root canal anatomy and many more.
Endodontists are very well trained in diagnosing the cause of oral and facial pain.
