Root Canal Treatment |
Several days of soreness – and several is different for every person. This soreness is no longer because of any inflamed nerve inside the tooth, but just from working on your tooth for several hours. A combination of Advil and Tylenol is all you need to manage this soreness, and swelling is rare.
If there was quite a bit of infection to begin with beyond the tip of the roots, we will place you on oral antibiotics to help dry up things and speed up the recovery process. However, once the tooth is treated, your body can start to take care of any infection beyond the roots. Most people go back to work and their daily activities that same day. |
