Root Canal

I had a root canal today and it didn't really hurt, nor does it hurt now. I still feel the novacaine. Am I in for a painful awakening tomorrow or will it really be ok as it has been this afternoon?

Re: Root Canal

i've had so many root canals Chat Icon and seriously, i dont think theyre as bad at allll as people make them out to be- when they take out the root, thats the part that causes the pain- so when its gone, so is the pain (in my experience anyway). i still usually take 2 advil before i get them done though, but thats more so that it doesnt hurt from the needle. If your gums feel iritated at all, just rinse with a little salt water... but no, youre not in for any major pain Chat Icon

I've had a couple and both times I felt fine the next day. For me, the real pain had occured prior to the RC, and the procedure got rid of the pain.

Re: Root Canal

I've had a few root canals and they weren't that bad...I was eating ice cream soon after!!!

Just take some tylenol and you'll be ok. It might hurt a little bit tomorrow...but, it won't be so painful that you can't deal with it.

Re: Root Canal

Thanks everyone! For some reason, it is very tender this morning. The gum area and my jaw. The doctor did say the bone around the tooth was fractured - maybe that's why it hurts? Anyway, I am taking Advil and debating taking a sick day.

But I am so relieved the before-root canal tooth pain is gone!Chat Icon
