"Will My Root Canal Treatment Hurt?"
Root canals do not cause pain—they relieve it. Under modern local anesthesia, the procedure feels similar to receiving a standard dental filling. Here is how we safeguard your comfort:
- Complete Profound Anesthesia: We test the tooth with an endodontic cold probe to verify 100% numbness before touching the nerve.
- Micro-Rotary Technology: Whisper-quiet endomotors eliminate the harsh noise and pressure sensations of old manual files.
- Post-Care Direct Support: Mild soreness when chewing for 24–48 hours is completely normal. Our team provides clear medication guidelines and remains accessible via WhatsApp if you have questions.
When Do You Need a Root Canal Treatment?
When tooth decay reaches deep into the pulp (nerve), it causes severe pain, swelling, and sensitivity. A Root Canal removes infected tissue and seals the tooth safely.

Comfort-focused anesthesia
Local-anesthesia options are selected after clinical assessment to support a comfortable treatment experience.

Frequently Asked Questions about Root Canal Treatment
Expert clinical answers from Dr. Rama Krishna Myla (MDS) and Dr. N. Malleswari Myla (MDS).
❓ Is a root canal treatment painful?
Modern local anesthesia and rotary instruments are used to make treatment as comfortable as possible. Your dentist will explain expected discomfort, timing and pain-management options after assessment.
❓ Can a root canal really be completed in a single sitting?
Some uncomplicated cases may be completed in one visit after clinical assessment. More complex teeth may need additional visits; your dentist will recommend the appropriate plan.
❓ Is a crown necessary after a root canal?
Yes, especially for premolars and molars. Once the infected nerve is treated, the tooth becomes brittle. A custom CAD/CAM zirconia crown protects it from fracturing under chewing pressure.
❓ What is the cost of root canal treatment in Guntur?
Root canal treatment at Myla Dental Care strictly adheres to official IDA tariff rates: ₹4,000 for anterior teeth, ₹4,500 for premolars, and ₹5,000 for molars, with re-treatment (Re-RCT) ranging from ₹6,000 to ₹8,000.
❓ How long does an RCT-treated tooth last?
When restored with a high-grade crown and maintained with proper oral hygiene and regular checkups, an RCT-treated tooth can function comfortably for many decades.
