The root canal infection is usually controlled by a root canal preparation, disinfection, and dressing change. The root canal is cleaned and disinfected and filled with instruments. This process may cause some pain, but it can usually be relieved by local anesthesia or analgesics. For some sensitive patients, it may be more painful. In addition, if there is more infection or inflammation in the root canal, the dressing may cause more pain. During the dressing change process, patients can communicate with their doctor to inform them of their feelings, so that the doctor can adjust the treatment plan according to the situation. It is important to note that after the nerve killing dressing change, there may be temporary pain, swelling or bite discomfort. These symptoms usually gradually resolve within a few days. If the symptoms continue to worsen or other abnormal conditions occur, seek medical attention promptly. In addition, the pain perception and management of neurocidal dressings may vary for special groups such as pregnant women, children, and patients with certain systemic diseases. Before treatment, the doctor will evaluate the patient's specific conditions and take appropriate measures to reduce pain and ensure the safety of treatment. In summary, the degree of pain during neurocidal dressing varies from individual to individual, but can usually be relieved by local anesthesia and analgesics. Patients should communicate with their doctor during treatment to deal with possible discomfort. Any questions or concerns can be discussed further with their doctor.
