What is root canal treatment?

Root canal treatment removes infected pulp from inside a tooth, disinfects the canals and seals them, allowing you to keep a tooth that would otherwise need extracting. Modern rotary instruments and microscope-assisted technique have made the procedure far quicker and more comfortable than its reputation suggests. Most patients report it feels much like having a filling. Keeping your own tooth is almost always better — and cheaper — than replacing it with an implant.

How the treatment works

From first message to finished treatment — here is what to expect.

  1. 1

    Assessment and X-ray

    An X-ray shows the extent of infection and the canal anatomy. Some teeth are beyond saving — a good dentist will tell you honestly if extraction is the better option.

  2. 2

    Anaesthetic and isolation

    The tooth is numbed and isolated with a rubber dam to keep the working area sterile.

  3. 3

    Cleaning the canals

    Infected pulp is removed and the canals shaped and disinfected using rotary instruments, often under a microscope.

  4. 4

    Filling and sealing

    Canals are filled with gutta-percha and sealed to prevent reinfection.

  5. 5

    Crown protection

    Root-treated teeth become brittle and usually need a crown to prevent fracture. Factor this into your budget — it is not optional.

Frequently asked questions

How much does root canal treatment cost in Turkey?expand_more
Around €80–€250 per tooth depending on how many canals are involved — front teeth are cheaper, molars more. A protective crown afterwards adds €150–€300.
Is it painful?expand_more
The procedure itself is done under local anaesthetic and most patients find it comparable to a large filling. The pain people associate with root canals is usually the infection beforehand, not the treatment. Mild soreness for a few days afterwards is normal.
Do I definitely need a crown afterwards?expand_more
For back teeth, almost always. Removing the pulp leaves the tooth brittle and prone to splitting under chewing force — and a split tooth usually cannot be saved. Skipping the crown to save money often costs far more later.
Root canal or extraction and implant?expand_more
Keeping your own tooth is usually better and cheaper. A root canal plus crown might total €400; an implant plus crown starts around €600 and involves months of healing. Extraction makes sense only when the tooth is genuinely unsalvageable.
How long does the treated tooth last?expand_more
Ten years or more, often for life, provided it is crowned and you maintain good hygiene. Success rates for well-executed root canals exceed 90%.
Can it be done in one trip?expand_more
Usually yes. Straightforward cases are completed in a single appointment; infected teeth may need a second visit a few days later, which is why 3–4 days in Turkey is the safe assumption.
