What is a root canal procedure?

Root canal procedures, or endodontics, is a treatment for the inner pulp of the tooth. They are performed to save teeth from extraction. The dentist or endodontist, a root canal specialist, cleans out the decayed or damaged pulp without breaking the exterior of the tooth root. The cleaned root canal is filled with a bio-compatible rubber-like material called gutta-percha. They are also performed for patients with damaged teeth caused by accidents or fractures. The procedure takes one to two hours to complete.

What are the types of root canal procedures?

Primary root canal treatments are performed using stainless steel files. Stainless steel files could remove only a small amount of infection and could easily break. The more advanced and flexible nickel titanium files do not break easily and are able to clean the entire infected area easily. Rotary instruments used to clean the root canal are quicker than manual instruments. Other advanced root canal procedures make use of ultrasound or laser to effectively clean the root canal.

Is a root canal procedure painful?

Root canal procedures are performed under local anaesthetic. Patients will not feel pain during the procedure.

What is the recovery time after having a root canal procedures?

Patients take about three days to recover after a root canal procedure. Some patients require a week to recover from a root canal procedure.

When can I travel by air after a root canal procedure?

It is safe to travel by air one day after a root canal procedure. Patients should check with their dentist before embarking on their journey. If they feel pain or discomfort, they should postpone their journey until it abates.

What care is required after a root canal procedure?

Patients should take all prescribed medications correctly. They should not eat until the anaesthetic wears off. They should not eat or drink very hot or very cold food for at least a week. They should avoid eating hard food or sticky food. If swelling occurs they should sleep with their head raised for a few days to bring it down.

What are the alternatives to root canal procedures?

Alternatives to root canal procedures include extractions and pulp capping procedures.

He explained everything and provided me with info as he worked on my treatmentRox, Japan, 26 02 24

Found this place when I was looking for a dentist that I could afford. The dental clinic is very clean and they have advanced technology in dental equipment. The team is very proactive, they always followed up with me and checked how I was doing. They respond to my questions right away either by email or phone. So far, everything seems to be good. I don’t have any pain after the treatment. It took a while to finish my implants that’s because my gums are not that healthy. Dr. Doh wanted to make sure that it was healing well before he finalized my implant. Overall, my treatment is outstanding. The whole team are awesome. They assisted me from Day 1 to the completion of my treatment. From front desk crews to dental technicians everyone performed an excellent job. I was hesitant to do my bridge and implants all at the same time because I was worried that it would be painful. Dr Doh guaranteed it would be pain-free and indeed there was no pain during the procedure. Dr Doh knows exactly what to do. He explained everything and provided me with info as he worked on my treatment. The clinic has its lab so the waiting period to get my new bridge and implant is very minimal. Most of all, Dr. Doh gave me several options to work on my budget. Compared to the price in the US for tooth implants, this clinic is a lot cheaper and the quality of work is outstanding. Thanks to all the staff who assisted me during my treatment.

I went to A+ Dental for about two years and have always been satisfied with their work. I've gotten everything from cleanings and fillings to root canals and they've all been great. Joyce is excellent, caring and always understands. They do everything efficiently and though it is expensive, I've learned that caring for our dental is extremely important for all ages.

The best dentist I’ve ever gone toSusan, US, 06 02 21

I’m from the U.S., teaching at an international school here in Korea. I needed some dental work done, so apprehensive. A co-worker referred me to Bright Dental Clinic, I went and had three teeth filled, it was a great experience. Every procedure was better than in the U.S., his staff is excellent, he is the best. The best dentist I’ve ever gone to. How many of us can say going to the dentist was a great experience?
