What To Expect
Before
- Depending on your symptoms your dentist might prescribe antibiotics that can help reduce your pain
During
- Your mouth will be numbed with local anesthesia during the procedure and our job is to make sure you are comfortable and don’t experience any pain.
After
- You are probably going to have some mouth pain after the procedure and your Saco endodontist may recommend that you take a common over the counter pain medication. And the pain should lessen as time goes on.
- Trust us… the pain will be far less than if you didn’t fix the problem causing the infection
