Frequently asked questions
Is every painful tooth treated with a root canal?
No. Pain can arise from decay, gum problems, cracks, bite-related issues or other causes. Treatment is selected only after examination and appropriate tests.
How many visits are required?
The number of appointments depends on the tooth, infection, anatomy and clinical findings. The dentist explains the expected sequence after assessment.
Is a crown always required?
Not every tooth has the same requirement. The amount of remaining tooth structure, tooth position and bite influence the final restoration plan.
Can antibiotics replace root canal treatment?
Antibiotics do not remove infected tissue from inside a tooth. They are prescribed only when clinically indicated as part of an appropriate treatment plan.
