Most teeth can be saved, but the final decision is made by the dentist after examining and assessing the condition of the tooth. In some cases (e.g., extensive damage to the crown), additional prosthetic restoration may be necessary, or if the damage is too extensive, extraction may be required.

No – the procedure itself is performed under local anesthesia, so the patient does not feel any pain. After treatment, the tooth may be tender or painful for a while – in some patients, the discomfort subsides after a few days, but sometimes the sensitivity can last for several weeks or months. This is a natural healing and adaptation process. If the pain intensifies or causes you concern, you can always contact our office and a doctor will assess the situation.

With proper treatment and adequate hygiene, a tooth can serve the patient for many years.

At our clinic, treatment usually takes place during a single visit, but in special cases it may need to be spread over several visits.

After root canal treatment, the tooth becomes more fragile, so it is often recommended to rebuild it with a crown-root inlay and a prosthetic crown to ensure its full strength.
