Root canals aren’t that bad. I’ve had several. The biggest issue is how long they take… hours in the chair. After that, it’s some sensitivity for a couple of days, and then done.



It is wild how much dental experiences vary. I just had one done 2 months ago and I was in the chair for slightly over 1 hour (15 minutes of that was blood pressure check and getting numbed).

Go to an endodontist. They specialize in root canals.

OP, something to be aware of that I didn’t know, you can experience bone disintegration around the area of the root canal. That’s where the infection settled in with my most recent issues. You could see a whole dark area around those teeth on my X-ray and my endo said it wasn’t uncommon but it’s definitely unsettling.
