What is a root canal procedure?

Root canal procedures, or endodontics, is a treatment for the inner pulp of the tooth. They are performed to save teeth from extraction. The dentist or endodontist, a root canal specialist, cleans out the decayed or damaged pulp without breaking the exterior of the tooth root. The cleaned root canal is filled with a bio-compatible rubber-like material called gutta-percha. They are also performed for patients with damaged teeth caused by accidents or fractures. The procedure takes one to two hours to complete.

What are the types of root canal procedures?

Primary root canal treatments are performed using stainless steel files. Stainless steel files could remove only a small amount of infection and could easily break. The more advanced and flexible nickel titanium files do not break easily and are able to clean the entire infected area easily. Rotary instruments used to clean the root canal are quicker than manual instruments. Other advanced root canal procedures make use of ultrasound or laser to effectively clean the root canal.

Is a root canal procedure painful?

Root canal procedures are performed under local anaesthetic. Patients will not feel pain during the procedure.

What is the recovery time after having a root canal procedures?

Patients take about three days to recover after a root canal procedure. Some patients require a week to recover from a root canal procedure.

When can I travel by air after a root canal procedure?

It is safe to travel by air one day after a root canal procedure. Patients should check with their dentist before embarking on their journey. If they feel pain or discomfort, they should postpone their journey until it abates.

What care is required after a root canal procedure?

Patients should take all prescribed medications correctly. They should not eat until the anaesthetic wears off. They should not eat or drink very hot or very cold food for at least a week. They should avoid eating hard food or sticky food. If swelling occurs they should sleep with their head raised for a few days to bring it down.

What are the alternatives to root canal procedures?

Alternatives to root canal procedures include extractions and pulp capping procedures.

He was kind, gentle and attentive and I no longer fear or worry about going to the dentistGeorgia, South Korea, 04 12 23

I had the best experience with Dr Seo removing 4 wisdom teeth (two impacted, and two that hadn’t erupted) with sedation. He was kind, gentle and attentive and I no longer fear or worry about going to the dentist. All of the staff were excellent too. I healed quickly and while the sedation didn’t affect me very strongly, I felt calm and relaxed knowing that I was in good hands during the removal. I highly recommend visiting as it was a pleasure to have my surgical removal here with such an excellent dentist!!

I’m incredibly grateful for the perfect service and treatmentAyna, South Korea, 15 03 25

I had fangs that were smoothened so easily and painlessly. I also got temporary bonding on my front teeth, and they look perfect now—I just want to smile nonstop! :) I am so satisfied with STC’s service, especially how carefully they work and communicate with patients. As an SNU student, I was able to get a great discount, which was so kind of them. :) By the way, the doctors speak English, which completely eased my worries. I’m incredibly grateful for the perfect service and treatment. Wishing your clinic continued success and even greater achievements!
