First question: How long is the procedure?
Second question: What are the steps in the procedure?
Third: Is the procedure painful?

Takes around 20 mins


First they drill a hole into your tooth then scrub the inside of it, then fill the tooth with fluid to stop infections happening again.


You should be numbed out, however i got something which is called a " hot pulp" which means that the anesthetic didnt work on me so it was quite painful but it wasnt 10/10 pain. It was sore for around 4 days after the procedure.

You will be fine man! A root canal is usually the last resort in saving a tooth so its better you get it done.

Good luck!

Dont be man, honestly the anesthetic should numb you, the chances of getting a hot pulp is very low. You will be fine

I got one before, they numb your mouth and then then they drill a hole inside your tooth, then they clean it up and they burn your nerve off but it doesnt hurt at all, you cant even feel it. It takes 15-20 minutes. Don't worry about it mate you will be fine.
