Will the treatment be painful?
            
            
                
                We will take every measure to ensure that your procedure is in no way uncomfortable or painful. If treatment is needed, we will inject a small amount of anesthesia to gently numb a concentrated area of your mouth. For most patients, the feeling of numbness usually subsides after 2-3 hours.
  
            
           
        
 
    
        
	
          
            
            
            
                
                Will I need to return for a follow up after the procedure is finished?
            
            
                
                Yes! For most root canal treatments we recommend that patients return to the office 1 year after the procedure for a checkup. Our office will send you a notification when you are due for a recall appointment.
