What Happens During a Root Canal?
Depending on the severity of the infection or damage, a root canal might take 1-2 dental appointments. Generally, Dr. Tran will start by giving you local anesthesia to help numb your mouth so that you don’t feel any discomfort. Then, he will enter through the top of the tooth and begin cleaning each root canal as well as the pulp chamber, making sure to remove the infected tissue – the cause of your pain.
After this portion of treatment is complete, he will fill the root canals with gutta-percha, a biocompatible substance, before sealing the tooth with a filling. A custom dental crown will be crafted and secured into place to restore stability to the enamel.
