Well, I don't recall any pain in the direct procedure...... I do remember alot of jaw rattling, and being able to smell the burning scent of my own tooth from the drill, and there was some soreness of the gum afterwards...... but you know what.?

Just had one and I had a great dentist, what hurts is the needle going in your jaw to numb the nerves.. If done right it's only moderately painful(and I have a very low pain tolerance) then the root canal it self doesn't hurt it's just uncomfortable while they are in there digging around.. Some people have pain after ward I had so much pain before the little after was tolerable with a minimum of pain reliever.. Trust your dentist and try not to worry to much, good luck!

I have had 4.. They don't hurt at all because you get Novacaine.. The worst part is actually getting the shot to numb you.. Plus I hate the feeling when the Novacaine wears off.. It's just odd.. To avoid it, after root canals, I go home and take a nap.. If anything is sore, it will be where the needle when in your gums to numb you.. If for some reason your tooth does hurt after a root canal, call your dentist.. This happened to me once (I found out that I had an infection in a nearby tooth, so once they relieved the pain with a root canal I could feel the pain of the other tooth)..Health Question & Answer
i know people say they hurt but when i had mine i had no pain whatsoever......NADA..........i felt nothing during the whole procedure, and afterwards it didnt hurt, but i took the painkillers anyway because i was scared pain would start..........i dont know if it would have if i didnt take them tho.. however, BEFORE i had the root canal, i had just gone to the dentist and he messed up my tooth and i came home in sooo much pain oh my freaking god, it was so bad i had to get an EMERGENCY root canal, i went an hour laterHealth Question & Answer
It doesn't hurt during the prosedure, if they didn't drug you, you'd probably go out cold with the pain and just faint.. A while after you get it done, and when the pain killers start to wear off, yeah, your going to feel pain.. its hard to tell how much but yeah, its going to be pretty bad.. Sorry mate.. Oh and they're really really expensive too..

If it is done right you wont feel a thing.. I have had 6 root canals.. 1 was very bad but the dentist really sucked.. The ;last 5 were fine.. A little tender for the first day or two but no problemsHealth Question & Answer
not like it used to.. you'll feel pressure, and it will be sore for a few days after the novacaine wears off..
