Signs You Need Root Canal Therapy

Root canal treatment is recommended when the inner pulp of a tooth becomes infected. This can happen due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures, or trauma to the tooth. If left untreated, the infection can spread, leading to tooth loss and widespread concerns.

Common signs you may need a root canal include:

  • Persistent toothache or pressure

  • Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers

  • A small bump or pimple on the gums

  • Darkening or discoloration of the tooth

  • Swollen gums or tenderness near one tooth

If you’re noticing any of these symptoms, seek care right away. We can determine whether a root canal is the right next step and provide relief before the problem worsens.

What Happens During a Root Canal?

Exam and Imaging

We’ll begin with a thorough exam and take digital X-rays to assess the condition of your tooth.

Numbing and Cleaning

Once you’re comfortable, we’ll gently access the inner chamber of the tooth and remove the infected pulp. We will then thoroughly disinfect the root canals.
 
 

Sealing and Restoration

The space is then filled with a biocompatible material and sealed. In many cases, we’ll place a dental crown to protect the tooth and restore full function.

FAQ About Root Canal Therapy in Los Algodones, MX

Will a root canal hurt?

Most patients say a root canal feels no more uncomfortable than getting a filling. We use gentle techniques and a local anesthetic to keep you comfortable throughout the procedure. Some mild soreness after treatment is normal and easily managed.

How long does a root canal take?

Most root canals can be completed in one visit, though more complex cases may require two. On average, treatment takes 60-90 minutes. We’ll give you a clear time estimate during your consultation.

Is a crown always required afterward?

In many cases, yes. A dental crown helps protect the treated tooth and restore full function. We’ll let you know if a crown is recommended based on the location and strength of the tooth after treatment.

“I travel 800 miles round trip each visit just to see her.  Her staff are very friendly, and they do their best to make sure that you are treated very well.”
