An infected or abscessed tooth can be treated with a root canal to reduce the pain. The inflammatory pulp is taken out during the root canal procedure. After disinfecting and cleaning the internal surfaces of the tooth, a filling is next applied to close the opening. Infection of the pulp inside your tooth by oral bacteria necessitates root canal therapy. This typically occurs when a cavity is neglected over an extended period of time. Additionally, it could happen if a traumatized tooth cracks or sustains other damage. The number of appointments needed for root canal therapy will depend on the severity of the infection in your tooth. A root canal typically takes 30 to 60 minutes to perform. A bigger tooth with many roots may require up to an hour and a half of treatment time. After a root canal, you shouldn't experience severe pain, although you can experience sensitivity for the first few days. Painkillers, whether prescribed or over-the-counter, can effectively treat these symptoms, which are common. The majority of the time, side symptoms disappear after one to two weeks.
