How painful is a root canal?

Published on: July 10, 2026

Usually, a root canal is not as painful as people expect.

In most cases, the pain comes before the treatment, caused by an infected or inflamed tooth. A root canal treatment is performed under local anaesthesia, so the procedure itself is designed to be comfortable while removing the source of the pain. You may experience mild soreness afterward, but it usually settles within a few days.

Still feeling unsure? Speak with Dr. Meyyeppan at SRM Dental Clinic to understand what root canal treatment involves and get the reassurance you need before making a decision.
