Root Canal Treatment: What to Expect
What root canal treatment is, when it is needed, and practical recovery tips.
Root canal treatment is used to save a tooth when the pulp inside becomes infected or inflamed.
At Lumina Dental Care, the process usually includes:
- Digital imaging and diagnosis
- Local anesthesia for comfort
- Cleaning and sealing the root canals
- Final restoration with a filling or crown
Most patients return to normal routines quickly. Mild sensitivity for a short period is expected, and your doctor will guide you on after-care and follow-up.
