Day 7 of 15: Signs You Might Need a Root Canal 🦷

Sometimes, your teeth give warning signs that they need professional care. Recognizing these symptoms early can save your natural tooth and prevent further damage. Here are some common signs you might need a root canal:

✔️ Persistent Tooth Pain: Ongoing pain, especially when chewing or putting pressure on the tooth.
✔️ Sensitivity to Hot or Cold: A lingering sensitivity, even after the hot or cold source is removed.
✔️ Swollen or Tender Gums: Swelling near the affected tooth or tender gums that don't improve.
✔️ Darkening of the Tooth: A discolored or darkened tooth might indicate nerve damage.
✔️ Pimples on the Gums: Small bumps near the tooth may signal an infection in the root.

If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, don’t wait! Seeking treatment early can relieve your discomfort and protect your oral health.

✨ Come back tomorrow for Day 8 of our “15 Days to Healthy Smiles” campaign!
