Root canals require multiple treatments, with a 1 to 2 week gap between the second and third.
Normally a root canal can be completed in about 2 weeks to a month, but everyone is different and the treatment time may be different. Under normal circumstances, root canal treatment is performed three times, the first time to remove the pulp nerve and clean the root canal, the second time is to change the medicine and anti-inflammation, and the third time to complete the filling, or the treatment cycle will be longer if the inflammation is more serious.
The interval between the first and second treatment is about 1 week, and the interval between the second and third treatment is 1 to 2 weeks, depending on the inflammation of the tooth.
During the period of root canal treatment, you need to eat a light diet with soft and easy-to-digest foods so that hard and spicy foods do not re-stimulate the inflamed tooth, and brush your teeth after eating. If there is any discomfort during the visit, you need to contact the doctor as soon as possible for follow-up so that the medication and cycle of treatment can be adjusted.
