Frequently Asked Questions
Can a root canal cause swelling?
Mild swelling can occur after the procedure as part of the healing process, but it typically subsides within a few days.
How long will a tooth with a root canal last?
A tooth treated with a root canal can last for many years, especially if properly restored with a crown and maintained with good oral hygiene.
What happens after a root canal treatment?
After treatment, you may experience mild soreness for a few days. A crown or filling is placed to restore the tooth’s strength and function.
How is root canal treatment different from a filling?
A root canal treats infected tooth pulp, whereas a filling only fills cavities. Root canals address deep infections, while fillings restore surface-level damage.
Why is a crown needed after root canal treatment?
A crown protects the treated tooth, restoring its strength, structure, and function, preventing future damage or breakage.
