Root Canal in Ventura

Prior to initiating your root canal treatment, your dentist will use a local anesthetic to numb the area surrounding the tooth, ensuring your comfort throughout the procedure.

During the process, you may feel some pressure or mild discomfort as your dentist works on your tooth. However, most patients report minimal to no pain during the procedure. In cases of anxiety or discomfort, your dentist may provide sedation options to enhance relaxation.

Following your root canal treatment, you may experience mild discomfort or sensitivity, a common occurrence typically manageable with over-the-counter pain medication. Your dentist will furnish you with detailed instructions on post-procedure tooth care, including recommendations to avoid hard or crunchy foods and maintain good oral hygiene.
