What Is Root Canal Treatment ?

A root canal (endodontic treatment) removes infected or damaged tissue from inside a tooth — the pulp, containing nerves and blood vessels — then cleans, shapes, and seals the root canal system. The tooth is then protected with a crown to restore its full function.

Root canal treatment has an unfair reputation for being painful. In reality, the procedure is performed under local anesthesia and the experience is typically no different from a routine filling. The pain people associate with root canals is the pre-treatment infection — not the treatment itself. The root canal relieves that pain.

  • Performed under local anesthesia — comfortable throughout
  • Removes infection and prevents its spread to surrounding teeth
  • Preserves the natural tooth — avoiding extraction and replacement
  • Completed in 1–2 appointments in most cases
  • Crown placement recommended after treatment for durability
  • Same-day root canal available for selected emergency cases

FAQ

Root Canal Questions

What expats in Songdo most commonly ask about root canal treatment.

Is a root canal painful?
Modern root canal treatment performed under effective local anesthesia is not painful. Most patients are surprised by how comfortable the procedure is. Mild soreness after treatment is normal for 2–3 days and managed with over-the-counter pain medication. The biggest source of "root canal pain" is the untreated infection before the procedure — the treatment relieves it.
How many appointments does root canal treatment take?
Most root canal cases are completed in 1–2 appointments. Simple single-rooted teeth (front teeth) are often completed in one appointment. Multi-rooted teeth (molars) may require 2 appointments. A crown is typically placed 1–2 weeks after the root canal is complete.
Is it better to extract the tooth than have a root canal?
In most cases, preserving your natural tooth with a root canal is the better long-term option. Natural teeth have significant biomechanical advantages over implants and bridges. Root-canal-treated teeth function normally for many years. Extraction creates an edentulous space that requires replacement — usually with an implant or bridge — at additional cost and treatment time.
Can I eat after a root canal?
Avoid eating on the treated side until the anesthesia has worn off to prevent biting your cheek or tongue. A temporary filling or crown is placed after treatment — avoid hard or sticky foods until the final crown is fitted. After crown placement, normal eating can resume.
