Root Canal Myths

Why this treatment is misunderstood

Much of the fear around root canals comes from outdated stories. Today, diagnosis is faster, anesthesia is better, and treatment is designed to stop pain caused by infection.

What patients are often surprised to learn

Common misconceptions include:

  • The tooth is not removed during a root canal
  • Treatment usually feels similar to getting a filling
  • Saving your natural tooth is often the best long-term option
