What is a Root Canal Treatment?
Inside every tooth is a soft tissue called the dental pulp, which contains nerves and blood vessels. When this pulp becomes infected due to deep decay, injury, or a crack, it can cause severe pain and swelling.
A Root Canal Treatment removes the infected pulp, cleans and disinfects the tooth from within, and seals it to prevent future infection—allowing you to keep your natural tooth.
Signs You May Need a Root Canal
You may require Root Canal Treatment if you experience:
- Severe or persistent toothache
- Pain while chewing or biting
- Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
- Swelling or pus around the tooth
- A deep cavity or broken tooth
- Tooth discoloration after an injury
Don’t ignore these symptoms. Early treatment can help save your tooth.
Is Root Canal Treatment Painful?
No. Modern Root Canal Treatment is designed to be comfortable.
- Performed under local anaesthesia for your comfort.
- Most patients feel little to no pain during treatment.
- The procedure relieves pain caused by infection.
- Gentle techniques ensure a comfortable experience.
How Many Visits Are Required?
The number of visits depends on the condition of your tooth.
- Most treatments are completed in 1 to 3 visits.
- Each appointment usually takes 30–60 minutes.
- If the infection is severe, an additional visit may be required for optimal healing.
After completing the treatment, we generally recommend placing a dental crown to strengthen and protect the tooth for long-term durability.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I eat after a Root Canal Treatment?
Yes. Once the numbness wears off, you can eat soft foods. Avoid chewing on the treated tooth until the permanent crown is placed.
Why do I need a crown after a Root Canal?
A tooth becomes more fragile after a root canal. A crown protects it from breaking and restores its strength and function.
What happens if I delay treatment?
Delaying treatment can allow the infection to spread, leading to increased pain, swelling, abscess formation, or even tooth loss.
How long does a Root Canal-treated tooth last?
With proper care and a well-fitted crown, a root canal-treated tooth can last for many years—often for decades.
