  • What is a root canal?

    A root canal is a dental procedure designed to treat infections or damage within the tooth’s pulp, the innermost layer containing nerves and blood vessels. The primary goal of a root canal is to remove the infected or damaged pulp, thoroughly clean the inside of the tooth, and seal it to prevent future infections. This procedure helps preserve the tooth and maintain overall oral health.

  • How is root canal treatment performed?

    Root canal treatment involves several steps. First, the dentist will numb the area around the affected tooth. Then, a small opening is made in the tooth to access the pulp chamber. The infected or damaged pulp is removed, and the inside of the tooth is cleaned and disinfected. The tooth is then filled with a special material and sealed. In some cases, a crown is placed on the tooth to restore its strength and function.

  • How long does the pain from a root canal last?

    Pain after a root canal is typically mild and should subside within a few days. Some discomfort and sensitivity are normal, but these symptoms can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers. If you experience severe pain or swelling that persists, contact ESI Dentistry for further evaluation and care.
