At Viva Dental, our endodontist specializes in saving natural teeth through advanced root canal treatments and other procedures that target the tooth’s inner tissues. With over 35 years of experience, we provide precise, gentle care that relieves pain, eliminates infection, and preserves your smile. Our goal is to restore comfort and function while protecting your long-term oral health.

During your visit, our endodontist will carefully examine your tooth using advanced imaging to locate infection or damage. A root canal procedure involves gently cleaning and sealing the inner canal to protect the tooth. Local anesthesia ensures comfort, and most patients return to normal activities the same day. At Viva Dental, we focus on safe, effective, and stress-free treatment to save your smile.
After a root canal, avoid chewing on the treated tooth until it’s fully restored with a crown or filling. Mild tenderness is normal for a few days—use over-the-counter pain relief if needed. Maintain gentle brushing and flossing, and avoid hard foods on the treated side. Attend your follow-up appointment to ensure the tooth heals properly and remains strong.
1. Does a root canal hurt?
No. The procedure is performed under anesthesia, and most patients feel relief from pain afterward.
2. How long does a root canal take?
Most treatments are completed in one or two visits, depending on the tooth’s condition.
3. What can I eat after the procedure?
Soft foods are best for the first 24 hours. Avoid chewing on the treated side until discomfort subsides.
4. Do I need a crown after a root canal?
Yes, in most cases. A crown strengthens and protects the treated tooth from future damage.
5. How long will my tooth last after treatment?
With proper care, a root canal-treated tooth can last a lifetime.
