- #shorts Why do I need a root canal?
An animated video of why a tooth may need a root canal and what the root canal procedure entails. A cavity can reach the nerve chamber of a tooth. Once it is inside the nerve space the bacteria from the cavity will kill the nerve inside of the tooth, it can then spread to the jawbone and cause an abscess. To treat this situation, your dentist or endodontist will perform a root canal on the tooth. They will drill into the nerve space of the tooth and remove all of the dead nerve tissue with endodontic files. Once the tooth is thoroughly clean inside, the root canal space will be filled with a material called gutta percha. Afterwards, your dentist will cover the tooth with a dental crown to protect it.
If you'd like to learn more about root canals, I highly recommend the book "Pathways of the Pulp". amzn.to/3Zgc2XL

Right 😂😂
@@VeryNiceSmileDental I think that you forget to mention that there is also filling with paste like materials that act like dentin? Not just gutaperk. Like Endomethasone sealer plus Gutta percha ? I think they are used together? Yes?
@@skygames1990 Yes the gutta percha points are cemented with a cement of some type. I typically use Endo-Rez by Ultradent with a single cone. I haven't done lateral condensation since the 1990's (not that there's anything wrong with that.....)
@@VeryNiceSmileDental It is vintage technique? 🤔
Remember Dr......MAKE SURE THE DAMN NERVE IS DEAD!!🤬🤬🤬
Trust me on this one! The pain is something I can't describe and I'm a combat veteran!
I'm always amazed to hear how many dentists don't wait long enough for the anesthetic to take effect, and they don't check to make sure the tooth is numb before they start working on the tooth.
Damn that must have been a traumatic experince
Yeah, I had the same experience once... Thankfully, the subsequent root canals I've had were a MUCH BETTER experience. I didn't feel shit!! They were even easier than a cleaning, lolol
went through that too, had to sit through 2 hours of agony.
Just went to the dentist today for a bi-yearly cleaning and I have a tooth that is sensitive to cold water and pressure from my gun being recessed too far. Boy, I tell them every time to be careful and unfortunately they have to clean that tooth as well and it makes me jolt from the instant pain!
To anyone scared. The numbing needles are the worst part. If you want to simulate that pain, give your self a quick pinch for not even a second.
The only time it hurts is if the needle RARELY punctures your nerve. I’ve only had this happen once out of 11 teeth and the pain only lasts for about 5 seconds instead of 1. You’ll be fine so go fix your teeth before you regret it.
The dentist gets paid and trained extensively to do these procedures so don’t give a thought about that
my dentist put a q tip with benzocaine on my gums before he gave me the injection. i didn’t even feel the needle. proof there’s so much that can be done to make you feel comfortable during this procedure, you just need a good, compassionate doctor.
it was my 2nd root canal to a different dentist and boy i was so wrong about my expectations.
the 1st one went smoothly (mostly just in injection at the beginning).
The 2nd root canal was like a glimpse of hell on earth. It touched the nerve more than 3 times (i lost count) and everytime the dentist touches me, i was holding my breath. I tried getting my mind off of the pain by thinking of prime numbers and I could never get past 7 or 11 each time.
No, the worst part is 45 minutes of drilling. And then they didn't get the whole root
I've had teeth removed, and the anaesthetic didn't work.
Luckily my dentist started the extraction, I said "ow" (wasn't too bad) he said: oh, that anaesthetic didn't work? Let's try again. (No pain after the second injection)
@@akeleven
During the initial treatment they thought I had 3 roots in each molar. A couple of weeks had to pass for them to have a slot to finish up the work at my regular dentist (or better said one of his colleagues specialised in root canals) they found out I had 4.
Didn't have any problems with it, other than it being a little sensitive in near the end.
"We saved your tooth! Now, that will be $3900."
Always talk about costs before you proceed with treatment. And for root canals, make sure the cost of the final restoration is included too.
I had 2 root canals with gold crowns after whilst in the military, didn't cost me a cent
@@Blodreina_100best recruitment ad ive ever seen
Had to do this last year. Cost me nothing as dental care is free for anyone under 23 in Sweden. I was 22.👋
We killed the tooth filled it with cement and acted like it costs a ton, that will be 4500..... cost $20 bucks in materials....
The pain of the rootcanal is nothing compared to the pain of the infection, just had a root canal a few weeks ago
Did getting your root canal done hurt? It's really not supposed to
I also had an abscess and much pain. I had my tooth extracted instead, though. Felt SO MUCH better afterwards! Tooth pain is no joke.
@@stephenbranley91 Yeah, when the tooth is abscessed it is extremely painful.
I have had a root canal surgery it wasn't painful at all. They did inject that region with anesthics that I could feel nothing there
It’s not painful at all when the anaesthesia actually works but if it isn’t numbed correctly, you’ll be in for a tough time.
This actually brings clarity to what happened when I got a root canal
American Dentist: That will be 60,000 dollars please.
Just north of NYC, specialists are charging around $2000.
$900 in texas with crown lol.
I'm a dentist here in Manila. That will only cost here around 500US $
Around 29 $ in Kerala, India.
$1500 with insecure in CA 😢
Dentist: ok, the bill comes to 78 grand, and your first born child.
The alternative is, you know, just removing the tooth.
Extracting the tooth is always an option.
Cheaper too
No, why? That leaves you without a tooth.
Like 5 times cheaper if the tooth becomes a inconvenient i can get a implant insead in the future which would be almost same price@kubauhlir1730
@@kubauhlir1730 You can get a synthetic tooth implanted to replace it.
I've said this to my dentist many times - "Thank God for modern dentistry!"
Just spent 6k on two root canals and 2 crowns on teeth # 12 & 13. Funny enough had no pain afterwards. Can't say for all people it'll be painless but please make sure you go to the right dentists that will get the job done correctly, at least mine did.
$6k sounds painful as hell
Just had a root canal done, but let me tell you, I went through the most agonizing pain because my dentist was closed on Monday and Tuesday for 4th of July. I’m glad I don’t have to deal w the pain and stress anymore but if your dentist tells you that you need a root canal, do it because the more you wait the worst the infection and the worst the pain will be
I had that thing and it hurts so bad until your nerves are gone.
My favorite part was the abscesses magically disappearing.
It is magically how the human body can heal.
That part when they fill the tooth with those "sticks" was the most painfull experience i've ever had.
doesnt worth it, you got 31 more tooth to use then
They didn’t give you enough anesthesia. For me it felt like pure coldness, but even without the pain, it was the worst part. Is was discomforting. I can’t imagine what you went through.
When I was in school one of my teachers had to have a root canal.
He said to us that he hopes none of us ever have to have one, because it's the most painful experience he's ever had.
I've never gone a day without brushing my teeth since.
@@pep3577 it’s not bad at all. He’s just a weirdo. I had to have one after lacking from time to time during my time in the field and on deployments.
@@pep3577 what the hell guys it's supposed to be painless, with a proper dose of anesthesia I didn't feel a thing
Just had root canal done yesterday. Thankfully didn’t experience any pain after local anesthesia. The dentist did great 😇
I have had a root canal and it wasn't that bad, the worst thing was having 2 wisdom teeth removed at the same time meaning my whole mouth was in pain because the root canal was on one of my front teeth and the wisdom teeth were on opposite sides
Im German and this is very nicely explained and easy to understand 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome, thank you!
I had to have a root canal on the same tooth twice
First time we went to the emergency dentist on the weekend,
then when it got an abscess again it was way less painful but the endodontist we went to somehow managed to make it the most painless procedure I've ever had.
I had this done. The dentist was nice enough to surprise me with a sample smell of the dead nerve. Horrid smell
damn, this is cool. I've had to go through this before. The root canal was the easy part. The pain before was just awful
True dat. My root canal was painful for about 5 seconds. Once the rest of the nerves were sucked out of the tooth, the radiating pain in my face from it was gone, and I felt nothing
An extraction is far cheaper even if the dentist has to cut the tooth into two sections & put in stitches. And 99% pain free. It felt similar to pushing a finger nail into another finger.
Extractions are much cheaper than root canals.
I remember when I had root canal
The dentist was so good they didn’t even use anaesthetic
Was that the dentist from little shop of horrors?
@@solomongrundy1467 😄😄😄👍👍👍
Had the same experience!! I kept telling my doctor that it hurts so bad but she kept telling me wait a little bit longer. Did 4 sessions without being anaesthetic, not even once
As someone who's root canal operation has been delayed for having high bilirubin levels, I find the comment box making me rethink my life
Me vibing to the bassline
Awesome! I composed it and played it. Thank you very much for watching!
@@VeryNiceSmileDental bassist gang
Im glad i had a good experience getting a root canal. My dentist even told me if i wanted to watch a movie, so i was just chilling watching Home Alone and getting a root canal 😂
Every time I go to the dentist to get my teeth checked and cleaned every dentist says whoever did my Root Canal did a great job😂😊
When you fall asleep first at the sleepover:
“Hey you got an infection, so we’re scooping out your teeth guts.”
Even better is when they turn bad and have to redo them over a couple procedures
Good timing for this keep up the good work
This starts the clock, the tooth becomes brittle and breaks easy
I had one done a while ago, but I didn’t know they went that deep. 💀💀💀💀
I felt so violated when they put the little stringy thing inside my tooth I knew it went super deep
another video on how root canals can go bad would be cool to see.
Or how some dentists don't care to make sure the anesthesia works and the patient won't sufferd
That sounds extremely painful when it kills the nerves 👀
ive had 2 root canals... 2. brush ur teeth ppl. it hurts.
When I was younger I had a pretty bad dental problem. Both of my wisdom teeth were a bit hollow on the top part and decayed from years of smashing hard candy. To make matters worse I also had puss forming behind the roots which caused a lot of pain, I would feel it at random times and my parents had given me pain meds as a temporary solution. Eventually they decided to go to a dentist so he could take out the infection. I didn't like it and it was pretty painful but I had to endure it because I knew it was for my own good. Now I get to enjoy life without any toothaches, take care of your teeth people!
Imagine getting dental work done and you hear this playing off your dentist phone 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh no 😂
😂😂😂😂😂 gotta blast
My dentist told me I didn't have a cavity but he still thinks I need 2 root canals because I have some pain in those teeth.
One time I had such a bad cavity that the inside of the tooth looked like a brown sponge and was big enough to fit an entire blackberry seed… in a tooth. I had basically a mouth pimple but way more painful. And the tooth was removed. Get cavity’s checked on and don’t let them become super gross. Learn from me!
DO NOT fall asleep first at the sleepover 💀 🙅♂️
I got a root canal last Thursday, and I’m 15, take care of yalls teeth.
I did better then most adults too lol
Ok I know I said this, but I got a root canal in my top tooth today next to my right big tooth, seriously take care of your teeth 🦷 🪥 😁
My first and ONLY was at 15... NEVER AGAIN!!! lol
Never again. I've had two and the first one broke after a month and the 2nd needed retreated and I opted to have it removed.
Trust me don’t let it get this bad. Stay on top of your fillings and you won’t need any of this
I got one of these not too long ago. The tooth feels much better now. It didn't necessarily hurt. But he used a few shots of novicane.
I had one these once. It wasent as painful as people think (bc I was numbed) Brush your teeth kids!
Root canals today are way way better than in the 80s, except the full jar of Percocet they have given you back then, the only good part of a root canal
This traumatized me as a kid. I fked up my two front teeth when I got into an accident with my bike.
They had to perform root canal and add crown. I swear 3 nurses and my dad were holding me in place while they perform it. I was screaming!!! It felt like they were drilling towards my brain
How old were you?
That sounds like a horrible experience.
i've had multiple treatments like this so far, and it's such a great feeling to finally get some ultracaine injected before the operation after having excruciating PULSING bursts of pain for multiple days or weeks.
Once my pain was so extremely horrible while in antibiotics treatment, there was nothing I could do except knocking myself out to complete unconsciousness for the whole day.
I recently had a tooth canal procedure done. It took 2 procedures to do the job. The molar had a crack in it and it already had a crown on it. He drilled a hole through the crown to get at the nerves. In total it cost over $1,800. The pain before the procedures was unbearable. The pain during the procedures was not bad at all, just uncomfortable. The endodontist filled the hole permanently so that saved me a trip to my dentist to do that. He wasn't too committal on the long-term outlook, but it's worth the gamble to me not to have the tooth extracted.
I had even a worse case ! This spoiled nerve things, get out of tooth and infected my gums, it was surgically opened to suck it out. I had stitches after this to close bitten meat that was everything what remembered from my gums there. Horrible case, many months and money go away.
Just came back from getting my first root canal & seeing the comments of people whose dentists were careless about the pain is so scary. I didn't feel anything. The dentist injected the anaesthesia (didn't hurt at all even though I'm usually very scared of needles) & gave me almost 20 mins for it to kick in & started only when be was sure that I couldn't feel anything on that side.
I really do MY best to get people numb! Some doctors are just impatient or have poor technique, etc. We all get that one patient that really is a challenge, though, for a variety of reasons. People need to review their local anesthesia book from dental school though😑 Always have plan B, C, D, E… to get someone numb.
Thank god I don't live in america where healthcare is just a business. Live in a third world country but still got the best treatment in less than 50 USD including medication.
@@SpeaksYourWord, 50 dollars for a root canal? What country is that, bro?
My numbing needle hurt… it was a huge injection
@@ptrs559India. In 50 dollars you can have RCT by a decent doctor along with a medium price crown which has 3 years of warranty and is of ceramic. And yes doctor uses x ray and the midern scanning machines to get the proper look at your teeth before proceeding.
Except that my dentist did't put a crown on top and the whole tooth fell apart
So that's what they did to my front tooth after I broke it.
I'm suddenly preferring Route Kanal on Hard.
I've had 4 crowns, it's great
POV:You fell alseep first at the sleepover
Know I know what my old dentist was going to do to my tooth but when I went to my new dentist they said it’s not even infected there is no sign of it being infected and as a young tween this was just hard for me to process bc when I found out this was going to happen to me I just wanted to have a mental breakdown and maybe even die😢😢😢😢😢
Shanks is the strongest one piece character
Most painful part for me was when the crown was placed... My gum was bleeding and dentist kept scraping it >
What happened?
My dentist just drilled in middle and put filling instead of crown. Guess he was tryna save me some 💸
Hi, studies show that root canaled posterior teeth last longer with crowns.

Very informativ at least I know what the dentist is drilling! But what about if the doctor doesn’t clean inside the teeth properly?
Hi, the inside of the canal needs to be cleaned properly. If it wasn't, a retreatment (basically a redo of the root canal) can fix it.
Don't go to encore. You will still have pain in tooth. Also they will root canal just for the hell of it. My daughter worked there for 6 months .
I had mine about a week ago and oh boy was I nervous, the pain wasn’t all that bad, worst part was having my mouth open for that long, in was on my front tooth which is the easiest tooth, due to its size. If your reading thing and have a future appointment, you’ll do fine, just don’t be to nervous.
Cuidense mucho la dentadura jovenes porque las reparaciones no quedan como la dentadura natural quedan algunas molestias y son exesivamente caras
As a person that hasn’t brushed their teeth for a while, this has not changed my routine, I will hit that road when I come to it
Never will i ever get root canals.
Had them before. Painless procedure
Teeth don't have a set number of roots.
If your dentist isn't careful, he can miss one. A few years later, you can have an abcess. Mine hit me on a weekend when everyone was closed.
I remember when I was a kid, my dentist gave me one of those with no anesthetic.
That dentistry office no longer exists, for hopefully obvious reasons.

Why watching this hurts so much !!!
pov: you were the first to sleep at a sleepover
Oh god i like to call it torture rather than root canal 🤧
If it's in the back, just pull it😂
One thing is to have a root canal on a tooth with dead nerves. It's a whole different story if the nerve isn't. The pain before and DURING the procedure is ... yeah.
I beg to differ sometimes the nerve doesn’t die!
Give me an Ice Skate and a big rock and I’ll do it myself like Tom Hanks in cast away.
This is why you floss every night before bed and use a low pH mouthwash.
17 and I’ve never had a cavity, and I plan to keep it that way!
I brush my teeth thoroughly twice a day, and I occasionally swish my mouth with toothpaste when I notice plaque buildup. One of my biggest fears is gum recession, so I try to keep my oral hygiene consistent.
For a root canal, might as well pull the tooth. I had a dentist only do half the root canal. Stopped halfway to make more money on future visits.
Tooth broke in half one night. Stopped going to that dentist office because he was too busy playing in a golf tournament. Few years later with essentially a razor blade in my mouth, another dentist broke the tooth and extracted the rest.
"Root Canal, and by the look of those x-rays it's not gonna be pretty."
*whirring sound*
"AHHHHH!"
I would get a dental implant instead.. Root can will eventually fail, you will lose bone in the site and then you will be back for a bone graft and implant...
My boy in the background playing bass like he need money for that root canal. 🦷 🎸

Nothing like the truth despite what capitalism have maked of my country (lie machine)
I had to get this done on both of my back teeth actually, it hurts depending on how much good of equipment the dentist has. When I had mine done they had almost none, hurt like hell and had to get at least 25 shots in each side of the mouth. the pain you get from the cavity eating at your nerves is a lot worse tho, 100% glad I just got it over with. Oh and plus my dentist was an asshole and made it ALOT worse.

It shouldn't be that painful, or painful at all if the dentist or endo knows what they're doing. My endo gave me novocaine + a booster and I barely felt anything.
I have to go get two of them soon🥲
I had one done. Barely felt it. Depends on the dentist you have, mine gave me enough sedatives to put down a horse. Honestly the night before where I couldn't sleep and had to hold cold water in my mouth or was alot worse

@@HumanSausage48 Depend on people. The first step they do is kill your root nerve. Sometime would feel no pain after this process. But there are a lot of people still feel it really bad. That include me. Even with anesthesia, my root canal work was like hell.
the scariest part of this whole thing is the price of the crown.
No such thing as a poor dentist...
Whew no lie
I didn't buy a crown and I'm fine.
I guess I was lucky. My dentist drilled straight down. Cleaned it out and filled my tooth with silver like a filling. There was no crown needed. So I guess that as long as your cavity is not in the side of the tooth. And straight down from the top. You might not need a crown.
Yeah but their job is to stick they hands in your mouth. IN YOUR MOUTH.
