What does the procedure for root canals entail and how long does it take?

Root canal treatment may take up to two weeks to complete, depending on whether there is an infection present, and whether you need a crown.

If there is an infection present, you will need a course of antibiotics to clear it up which must be started at least 10 days before the root canal treatment is commenced. If you are traveling specifically to Ajijic for root canal treatment it would probably be best to obtain antibiotics from your dentist at home so that your infection will be clear by the time you see your dentist in Ajijic.

The actual root canal procedure is usually carried out in a day. How long it takes depends on how many tooth roots there are, and how difficult they are to access. In order to reach the roots, your dentist will drill a small hole in the top of the tooth to gain access to the soft pulp. This will be cleared of debris and the cavity enlarged so that any debris in the root canals can be removed. Once each canal is cleared the cavities are cleansed thoroughly and filled with a temporary filling. This is to make sure there are no signs of infection.
