Root Canal Treatment at Smile Story Medical Center

Root Canal Treatment

Treat an infected or inflamed tooth and keep your natural tooth where possible.

Patients often ask

How do I know if I need a root canal?

Lingering pain with hot or cold, pain when biting, or swelling near a tooth can be signs. An examination and X-ray help confirm the cause.

Do I need a crown after a root canal?

Often yes, especially on back teeth, because a treated tooth can become more brittle. Dr. Anju will advise you based on how much of the tooth remains.

Root Canal Re-treatment at Smile Story Medical Center

Root Canal Re-treatment

Have an earlier root canal checked and treated again if it still hurts or has become infected.

Patients often ask

Why does my old root canal still hurt?

Possible reasons include a missed canal, a leaking filling or crown, or a crack in the tooth. An assessment helps find the likely cause.

What does re-treatment involve?

The old filling is removed, the canals are cleaned again, and the tooth is refilled. Re-treatment is often more complex than the first procedure.

Root Canal Second Opinion at Smile Story Medical Center

Root Canal Second Opinion

Check a root canal plan, or a tooth that is still painful, before you decide what to do next.

Patients often ask

Should I save the tooth or remove it?

It depends on the tooth's structure, the infection and the support around it. Dr. Anju explains the options and their limits so that you can decide.

What should I bring for a second opinion?

Bring any X-rays and treatment notes if you have them. You can still come without them.
