What Is a Root Canal?
A root canal is a dental procedure used to treat infection or inflammation inside a tooth. Each tooth contains a soft inner tissue called the pulp, which holds nerves and blood vessels. When bacteria enter through deep decay, cracks, or trauma, this pulp can become infected or inflamed.
Remove the infected pulp
Clean and disinfect the inner tooth
Fill and seal the space
Restore the tooth with a dental crown or filling
This procedure stops the infection, eliminates pain, and saves the natural tooth from extraction.
Signs You May Need a Root Canal
Persistent tooth pain
Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
Swollen or tender gums near the tooth
A dark or discolored tooth
A pimple-like bump on the gum

FAQ's
Is a root canal painful?
Thanks to local anesthesia and advanced techniques, most patients say the procedure feels similar to getting a filling. It’s designed to relieve pain—not cause it.
How long does a root canal take?
Most root canals take one to two appointments, depending on the complexity of the tooth. Molars may take a bit longer than front teeth.
Can I go back to work after a root canal?
Yes. While some patients prefer to rest after their visit, many return to work or normal activities the same day.
Do I need a crown after a root canal?
In most cases, yes—especially for back teeth that handle more pressure. A crown protects the tooth and extends its lifespan.
How long will my root canal last?
With good oral hygiene and regular dental checkups, a root canal-treated tooth can last a lifetime.
