10 Root Canal FAQs Answered

1. Does root canal treatment hurt?

Modern techniques make RCT no more uncomfortable than a routine filling.

2. How long does the procedure take?

Typically 1-2 visits, depending on tooth complexity.

3. Why save the tooth instead of extracting?

Preserving your natural tooth maintains proper chewing function and prevents bone loss.

Only extraction, which then requires implants or bridges to fill the gap.

5. How successful is root canal treatment?

With proper care, over 95% success rate for many years.

6. Will I need a crown after RCT?

Recommended for back teeth to prevent fracture; front teeth may only need fillings.

Avoid hard foods initially; maintain good oral hygiene; attend follow-ups.
