Root Canal Therapy in Turkey
Root Canal Therapy in Turkey
Tooth pain, sensitivity, or swelling may be signs of infection inside the tooth. At All on X Clinic in Istanbul, Turkey, root canal therapy is designed to relieve pain, eliminate infection, and preserve your natural tooth with careful, modern endodontic techniques.
Best for
- Severe toothache (especially at night)
- Prolonged sensitivity to hot or cold
- Swelling or gum “pimple” near a tooth
- Deep decay or cracked tooth reaching the nerve
- Tooth infection seen on X-ray
Important: If you have severe facial swelling, fever, difficulty swallowing or breathing, or rapidly worsening pain, seek urgent care. Dental infections can spread and require immediate medical attention.
What is Root Canal Therapy?
Root canal therapy (endodontic treatment) is a procedure that removes infected or inflamed tissue from inside the tooth (the pulp), then cleans, disinfects, and seals the root canals. The goal is to save your tooth and prevent the infection from spreading.
Root canal treatment is not “extra work”—it is often the best way to preserve your natural tooth instead of extraction.
Why a Tooth May Need a Root Canal
- Deep decay reaching the nerve
- Cracks or trauma causing pulp damage
- Repeated dental work on the same tooth
- Infection or abscess at the tooth root
- Severe inflammation inside the tooth
Common Signs You Might Need Treatment
- Severe toothache or throbbing pain
- Long-lasting sensitivity to hot/cold
- Pain when biting or chewing
- Swollen gum near the tooth
- Darkening of the tooth
Digital Diagnosis at All on X Clinic
Accurate diagnosis is essential. Your evaluation may include a clinical exam, bite testing, and imaging to understand the extent of infection. Digital tools help confirm the tooth involved and support a safer, more precise treatment plan.
- X-ray evaluation to detect infection around the root
- Digital assessment to identify cracks or deep decay
- Case planning to decide if the tooth needs a crown afterward
How Root Canal Therapy Works
While each case differs, root canal therapy typically includes:
- Local anesthesia for comfort
- Access opening to reach the canals
- Cleaning & disinfection of the canal system
- Canal shaping for proper sealing
- Filling (obturation) and sealing
- Restoration (filling or crown) to protect the tooth
Do You Need a Crown After a Root Canal?
Often, yes—especially for back teeth (molars) that handle heavy chewing forces. A crown can:
- Protect the tooth from cracking
- Restore normal chewing function
- Improve long-term durability
- Seal the tooth against leakage
Front teeth sometimes can be restored with a filling depending on structure and bite.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is root canal therapy safe?
Yes, it is a widely performed procedure intended to remove infection and preserve the tooth. Outcomes depend on tooth anatomy, infection severity, restoration quality, and proper aftercare.
Will I feel pain during treatment?
Treatment is performed with local anesthesia. Some tenderness after treatment can occur, especially if there was infection, but it is usually temporary and manageable.
How long does a root canal-treated tooth last?
Many root canal-treated teeth last for years with proper restoration (often a crown), good oral hygiene, and regular checkups.
Can a root canal fail?
In some cases, reinfection can occur due to complex canal anatomy, cracks, leakage, or delayed final restoration. If symptoms return, retreatment or other options may be considered after evaluation.
