Is Root Canal Treatment Painful?
One of the most common questions Dr Contato is asked. The short answer: no — modern root canal treatment, carried out under local anaesthetic by a specialist like Dr Contato, should be no more uncomfortable than having a filling. The procedure removes the source of pain (infected or inflamed pulp tissue), so most patients feel immediate relief after treatment.
“Saving a natural tooth through root canal treatment is one of the most rewarding things I do. Modern endodontics is comfortable, highly effective and gives patients their smile — and their life — back.” – Dr Luciana Contato
