EMERGENCY ROOT CANAL TREATMENT CHELSEA, LONDON
A root canal treatment, most certainly should not be painful. To ensure that the patient is not uncomfortable during the root canal treatment, the patient needs to have a good anaesthetic before beginning any treatment. Higher doses of local anaesthetic may be required when there is severe acute pain in the tooth, and it may take some time to fully anaesthetize the patient. We can certainly fully anaesthetise patients before performing a root canal procedure. There are various types of local anaesthetic available.
WHEN A ROOT CANAL IS NECESSARY
