Signs You Might Need a Root Canal

Persistent Pain: Severe, throbbing pain that doesn’t go away. This pain might be constant or intermittent and can be felt deep within the tooth.

Sensitivity to Temperature: Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold foods and beverages. If the sensitivity lingers even after the hot or cold substance has been removed, it could indicate an issue with the tooth’s pulp.

Swollen Gums: Swelling, tenderness, or a small bump (abscess) on the gums near the affected tooth. This bump may resemble a pimple and could release pus.

Pain When Touching or Chewing: Pain or discomfort when you touch the tooth or apply pressure to it while eating or biting down.

Prolonged Bad Breath or Unpleasant Taste: Chronic bad breath or a persistent bad taste in your mouth can indicate an infection inside the tooth.

Swelling in the Face or Neck: Severe infection can sometimes cause swelling in your face or neck.

Loose Tooth: An infected tooth might feel looser due to the surrounding bone being affected by the infection.

If you're uncertain whether your dental concern is an emergency, remember: if it causes pain, it's an emergency. Prompt action enhances the chances of saving affected teeth. Timely treatment for abscesses, dental infections, or other oral issues prevents complications. Seeking immediate care enhances the likelihood of simpler and more effective treatment.
