Post-Op Care for Your Root Canal

Post-Op Care for Your Root Canal – Dr. Nita Kalambe

A Root Canal Treatment (RCT) saves your natural tooth from extraction by removing infection and sealing it from further damage. At Shree Dental Care & Implant Center, Dr. Nita Kalambe ensures that your RCT is painless, precise, and long-lasting.
However, your healing and final results depend a lot on how well you care for your tooth after the procedure.

What to Expect After a Root Canal
- Mild discomfort or sensitivity for a few days
- Slight swelling around the treated tooth
- Temporary filling or crown until the permanent one is placed
Post-Care Instructions

1. Manage Pain & Swelling
- Take prescribed painkillers and anti-inflammatory medication as directed
- Avoid chewing on the treated tooth until the permanent crown is placed
2. Eating & Drinking
- Eat soft foods like dal rice, pasta, curd, or khichdi for the first 24 hours
- Avoid very hot, hard, or sticky foods until advised
3. Oral Hygiene
- Continue brushing and flossing gently around the treated tooth
- Use a soft-bristled toothbrush to avoid irritation
4. Protect the Tooth
- Do not bite hard objects (nuts, ice, pens)
- Get a crown placed as soon as recommended to prevent fracture
5. Monitor for Symptoms
- Contact your dentist if you experience severe pain, swelling, or bite discomfort after a few days
- Early attention can prevent complications
Why a Crown After Root Canal is Important

A treated tooth becomes more fragile and prone to cracking. Placing a crown strengthens and protects it, ensuring your RCT lasts many years.
