Root canal Question

[toothachenooo]

I got told I need a root canal but im so scared I was numbed up but when I had a deep filling they said they hit a nerve and I jumped out the chair in shock when the drill touched it , and with a root canal they go ALL the way down so wont this happen again ???

Yes, only if you visit the same clinic. If it was numbed properly, this wouldn't happen.

While it’s natural to feel anxious about dental procedures especially after an uncomfortable experience it’s important to remember that modern dentistry prioritizes patient comfort through effective pain management strategies. Communicating openly with your dentist about your fears can help them tailor their approach to make you more comfortable during treatment.
