Trust me it doesn't even hurt.

The worst part is the shot that makes you numb and that is not even bad

If you are really worried just close your eyes the whole tie, listen to music, or anything. You will be fine

When your tooth is infected it hurts because there is a nerve in the middle. Your dentist will numb the tooth/nerve and remove the nerve from inside the tooth and clean and fill the canals with an organic material.http://hoytdental.com/blog/does-a-root-canal-hurt/

Why does it hurt when i oprn my mouth yo eat 5 days after root canal - no pain right after root canal - the pain is on the same side i had the root canal but it doesnt hurt near the tooth?

Many times when the canal was deep and infected the dentist will use special files to widen the canal. This is essentially removing tissue from the tooth. this can cause the gums to be sore. Now if the root was not all removed you would feel pain in the exact tooth. thanks for reading.. Http://www.BrowardDDS.com is my Dental website.

Does your dentist perform root canal procedures?

They do perform root canals for nine hundred dollars. He also gives you a choice of removing the tooth. To remove the tooth is about one hundred. They both hurt, but the root canal saves your tooth and takes much longer to perform.

Should your gums and tooth still hurt 3 weeks after a root canal?

No. There something else going on. It may still be infected or possibly the occlusion needs to be adjusted. Return to the dentist who performed the root canal and let them diagnose the problem.


Why does your tooth hurt that you had a root canal done on about 3 years ago?

Generally its not the same tooth that may be hurting, if the root canal was performed properly. You should go see a dentist to rule out other dental issues you might be having. Once the root is removed it is a dead tooth, no longer susceptible to sensation. A "root canal" procedure does not include the removal of a root(s), only the "killing" of the nerve down the center of the roots.

What are consequences of getting your root canal therapy?

If your tooth needs a root canal and is not painful, then it must be a dead tooth. When a tooth is dead, it is a source of infection which is not good. It is possible that it could hurt in the future due to infection. Better to have the root canal done, because you're trying to save your tooth. If you don't have the root canal treatment done and your tooth continues to decay, the dentist might have to pull that tooth out in the future. Once you pull out your tooth, that's gone forever
