Root canal treatment is a procedure used to repair and save a tooth that is infected or damaged. It is performed when the pulp inside the tooth, which contains nerves and blood vessels, becomes infected or damaged and cannot repair itself. During the procedure, the infected or damaged pulp is removed and the inside of the tooth is cleaned and sealed. Root canal treatment is usually performed by a dentist or an endodontist, who is a specialist in treating diseases of the dental pulp. The procedure is usually done under local anesthesia and can be completed in one or more visits, depending on the complexity of the case.
2. Why do I need a root canal?
You may need a root canal if the pulp in one of your teeth becomes infected or damaged. This can happen for a variety of reasons, such as:
A deep cavity
A crack or chip in the tooth
Repeated dental procedures on the same tooth
Trauma to the tooth, such as from a fall or blow to the mouth

A root canal procedure should not be painful. Your dentist or endodontist (a specialist in treating the pulp of teeth) will numb the area around the tooth to minimize any discomfort. Most people report that the procedure is no more painful than having a filling placed.
The length of a root canal procedure can vary, but it usually takes one to three visits to complete. The first visit is to diagnose the problem and prepare the tooth. The second visit is to remove the infected or damaged pulp and clean out the inside of the tooth. The third visit, if needed, is to place a crown or filling on the tooth to protect it and restore its function.
After a root canal, you may feel some sensitivity or discomfort for a few days. Your dentist will give you instructions on how to care for the tooth and manage any pain or discomfort. It’s important to follow these instructions and take any prescribed medications as directed. Most people are able to return to their normal activities the day after the procedure.
A root canal procedure is generally a permanent fix for an infected or damaged tooth. However, it’s important to practice good oral hygiene and see your dentist regularly to ensure the long-term health of the tooth.
If a tooth is severely damaged or infected and cannot be saved with a root canal, the only alternative may be to extract the tooth. However, it’s generally best to try to save the tooth if possible, as this can help maintain the natural function and appearance of your teeth.
Root canal treatment is generally safe and effective for most people. However, in some cases, it may not be the best option. For example:
If the tooth is too damaged or infected to be saved, extraction may be the only option.
If the patient has a compromised immune system or is taking certain medications that affect healing, the success rate of a root canal may be lower.
If the patient has a severe allergy to the materials used in root canal treatment, an alternative treatment may need to be considered.
It’s important to discuss your medical history and any concerns you have with your dentist or endodontist before undergoing a root canal procedure. They will be able to determine if root canal treatment is a suitable option for you and suggest alternatives if necessary.
