Signs You Need a Root Canal — And Where to Get It Done in CBD Belapur

7 Signs You May Need a Root Canal

1. Persistent, Throbbing Tooth Pain

Pain that comes and goes, or wakes you up at night, often indicates pulp inflammation that won't resolve on its own.

2. Lingering Sensitivity to Hot or Cold

A normal tooth feels brief sensitivity. If the pain lingers for more than a few seconds after the stimulus is removed, the nerve may be damaged.

3. Pain When Chewing or Touching the Tooth

Sharp pain on biting can indicate a cracked tooth or infection that has spread to the surrounding tissues.

4. Swollen or Tender Gums

Localised swelling near a specific tooth — sometimes with a small pimple-like bump — usually points to an abscess.

5. Darkening or Discolouration of a Tooth

A single tooth turning grey or brown can indicate that the pulp inside has died, even if there is no current pain.

6. A Deep Cavity or Cracked Tooth

When decay or a fracture reaches the pulp chamber, root canal treatment is often the only way to save the tooth.

7. Bad Taste or Persistent Bad Breath

A chronic bad taste from one area of the mouth can be a sign of a draining infection that needs urgent care.
