“Doctor, what actually happens during a root canal?”
It’s one of the most common questions patients ask—and knowing the answer can make treatment seem far less mysterious.
A root canal typically involves several carefully planned stages: examining the tooth, numbing the area, accessing the root canals, cleaning and disinfecting them, sealing the canals and appropriately restoring the tooth.
Our latest Root Canal Patient Guide walks you through the process step by step, including what you may experience afterward.
At Dr Deval Mehta™, we believe patients should understand their treatment—not simply undergo it.
