What Happens During a Root Canal?
A root canal typically takes one or two appointments to complete and is performed by a dentist or endodontist. Here is what you can expect during a root canal procedure:
Numbing the area
The dentist will numb the affected area with local anesthesia to ensure you feel comfortable during the procedure.
Removing the damaged pulp
The dentist will create a small access hole in the top of the affected tooth to remove the damaged or infected pulp using specialized tools.
Cleaning and shaping the tooth
The dentist will clean and shape the inside of the tooth using small files to remove any remaining pulp and debris.
Filling and sealing the tooth
The dentist will fill the inside of the tooth with a rubber-like material called gutta-percha and then seal the access hole with a dental filling or crown.
Restoring the tooth
After the root canal procedure, your tooth may be weak and vulnerable to damage, so the dentist may recommend placing a dental crown to protect and strengthen the tooth.
