Usually - yes. Today, dentists have advanced instruments and equipment that makes it possible to complete a root canal in one appointment. Not all dentists have these instruments in their office, and some choose to perform a root canal the way they were taught in dental school many years ago. These procedures can take two or more appointments.
You should also be aware that a tooth that has a root canal usually requires a restoration called a crown. This is because a tooth with a root canal will tend to get brittle and will likely fracture in the future. The crown will prevent this from happening. A crown usually requires at least two appointments, unless the dentist uses a Cerec crown mill in his office and the crown ins fabricated while you wait.
Yes. A root canal can usually be performed in one appointement, unless there is an infection, or other complications that require more visits.

There is a treatment which is known as one day crown. Those who have lack of time, are in hurry, who are not able to give time to treatments, after care and rest can go for one day crown. Root canal treatments as well as crowns are a great treatment for any person who are dealing with dental issues.

Can you fly the day after having root canal treatment?
I was told by my Destist (endodontist) if the tooth that the root canal was done on was built up properly there should be no problem flying, my endodontist knew I was flying on a plane the next day I heard her say "were going to go ahead and put on a permanent filling" but she told be to get a crown done within 2-3 weeks.
How long will pain last after root canal?
No that is not normal. I had a root canal done and it did not hurt at all. Call your dentist and see what he can do for you. Good luck and God Bless:)
What can you not do after a root canal?
After a root canal, it is highly recommended to put a crown on the tooth. After putting the crown you can eat anything u want but do not forget to brush twice a day. If you didn't put the crown even then you can chew things but not very hard.
Can you have more than one root canal done in one day?
Yes, especially if it's a lower molar. Reason being, root canal teeth are "dead teeth:, as they have no nerve left, leaving them brittle and more susceptible to breakage.
Is a dentist as qualified to do a root canal as an endodontist?
Yes, legally all general dentists are qualified to do root canals. But, IMO not as qualified as an endodontist who has gone through 2-3 years of additional training in the specialty and does ONLY root canals all day rather than once/week. I would only let an endodontist do my root canal and similarly (but more serious) I would only let a heart surgeon do my bypass surgery. == == All Dentists are qualified to do root canals.
What aftercare is associated with root canal treatment?

Can you get braces a day after getting a root canal?
It should be perfectly okay depending on what has to be done to that particular tooth. Ask your dentist for a referral to an orthodontist (some orthos accept patients without referrals) and he/she should be able to answer all your questions during your consultation appointment. Yes, teeth move with braces even if they have undergone root canal therapy.
Were is the crown on Bin Weevils?

Does mi medicaid cover root canals and crowns?
I live in New York and Medicaid will do root canal therapy on all teeth except the molars. There are fine lines with that as if you are missing other specific anterior teeth (front teeth) in your mouth, they will actually do root canals on molars if you fit this demographic. There is another fine line here as they will NOT pay for root canal teeth until it can be proven that there is an abscess, and this means pretty much it has to abscess at the root for Medicaid to cover the cost on the root canal therapy. Most teeth cannot be proven, as 2d radiographs don't show anything normally until the abcess at the root occurs. They will also not pay for crowns if you want to crown a root canal therapy tooth. Waiting for an abcess to occur is not good, and teeth should never be let go till that point. It dimishes the root canal therapy success rates and you're dealing with pain and discomfort for elongated periods of time with a higher potential for tooth loss as an abcess damages the jawbone.
If you are trying to conceive and you have a root canal scheduled on the same day as your ovulation could it cause you not to get pregnant or to miscarry?
The X-ray will damage the egg, unless you wear a covering that protects it... LEAD covering. I know I was in Dental school. As for the root canal, no, it won't cause you to not get pregnant, but you should warn the dentist if you even suspect that you are pregnant, so they can take every precaution in not harming the embryo...
Where is the binweevils crown?
