Frequently asked questions

Is root canal treatment painful?

It is performed under local anaesthetic and is generally no more uncomfortable than having a filling; some tenderness afterward is normal.

Will I need a crown after a root canal?

Often yes, particularly on back teeth, since root-treated teeth can be more brittle — ask your dentist whether a crown is recommended for your specific tooth.
