How Long Does A Root Canal Take?

- Tooth Complexity
- Extent of Infection
- Location of the Tooth
- Presence of Calcification.
- Patient’s Oral Health & Cooperation
- Technological Advances
- Number of Visits
Your dentist will provide an estimated timeline based on your unique situation to ensure the best possible outcome.
Root Canal Recovery Time
Root canal recovery usually takes a few days to a week. Most patients can resume normal activities within 24-48 hours, though some discomfort and sensitivity may linger for a few days. Swelling and tenderness around the treated tooth are common but typically subside within a week.
Over-the-counter pain relievers or prescribed medications can help manage any pain. If severe pain or swelling persists, it’s important to contact your dentist for further evaluation and care.
