What to Expect: Root Canal

A root canal typically takes 1-2 hours. The dentist numbs the area, creates an opening in the tooth, removes the infected pulp, cleans and shapes the canals, and fills them with a rubber-like material. A temporary filling is placed. You'll usually need a crown afterward. Some tenderness is normal for a few days. Modern root canals are similar in discomfort to getting a filling.
