After your endodontic procedure, it is not uncommon to experience some soreness, sensitivity, or a general discomfort around the injection site, the area surrounding the tooth, or the tooth itself.
This discomfort is in response to inflammation of the procedure and should lessen with time, lasting just a few days. Some discomfort is a natural part of the healing process and does not mean the treatment is failing. If your pain does not improve daily, please give us a call. We want you to feel comfortable.
Following the root canal procedure, you will need a dental restoration like a filling or crown to protect the tooth.
Root canals relieve significantly more pain than they cause. When the pain of an infected tooth is debilitating or inhibits the patient's ability to function, a permanent solution for pain relief feels like it cannot come fast enough.
