This varies....: Your experience is dependent upon the dental office and upon the dentist providing the service. Some offices and dentists are more patient-centered and more empathetic than others. I would suggest searching online reviews to see what other patients are saying. These patients can offer you the best examples of what to expect from any particular dental office or dentist.

First option- rc: If the tooth can be saved with a root canal, this is the first and best option. There are many considerations that you may have to think about- costs (including restoring the tooth permanently, prognosis, amount of tooth left, etc. Ask questions and possibly get a second opinion if in doubt.
