Frequently asked questions
Is root canal treatment painful?
Modern root canal treatment is no more uncomfortable than having a filling placed. We use effective local anaesthesia to ensure you feel no pain during the procedure. Most patients are pleasantly surprised by how straightforward and comfortable the experience is at LetzSmile Dental.
How many appointments are needed?
Most root canal treatments are completed in one or two appointments, depending on the complexity of the tooth. Molars with multiple canals may require an additional visit. Your endodontist will outline the expected timeline at your first appointment.
What happens if I delay root canal treatment?
Delaying treatment allows the infection to spread, potentially leading to an abscess, bone loss and increased pain. In severe cases, the tooth may become unsalvageable and require extraction. We strongly recommend seeking treatment promptly — our Strassen clinic is open Monday to Saturday to help.
