Some discomfort after your root canal treatment is normal. However, any pain should be mild and easy to handle with a cold compress and over-the-counter pain medication. Dr. Gravitas may prescribe medication to counter pain and fight infection, so we encourage you to take all prescribed medication as instructed.
If you feel like your post op pain is unbearable or it hasn’t receded after a week, feel free to call our Sacramento office at (916) 929-9222. We’ll address any issues you may be having so your treatment can continue as comfortably as possible.
