Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers about endodontic care, treatments, and what to expect during your visit.

  • What is endodontics?

    Endodontics is a dental specialty focused on diagnosing and treating conditions inside the tooth, particularly the pulp and root canals. The goal is to relieve pain, eliminate infection, and preserve the natural tooth.

  • When do you need a root canal?

    A root canal may be needed when the pulp inside the tooth becomes inflamed or infected due to deep decay, cracks, trauma, or repeated procedures. Common symptoms include pain, sensitivity, and swelling.

  • Is root canal treatment painful?

    Modern root canal treatment is designed to be comfortable. With advanced techniques and effective anesthesia, most patients report the procedure feels similar to having a filling.

  • What is the difference between a dentist and an endodontist?

    An endodontist is a dental specialist with advanced training in diagnosing tooth pain and performing root canal treatments. They focus exclusively on procedures involving the inside of the tooth.

  • How long does a root canal take?

    Most root canal treatments can be completed in one or two visits, depending on the complexity of the case. Your endodontist will determine the appropriate treatment plan after evaluation.
