Question 1

Can you see me quickly for severe tooth pain in Greenpoint?

Accepted Answer

Often same-week and sometimes same-day, we hold schedule room for urgent cases. Call (718) 389-1120 first thing and describe your symptoms; Saturdays 10 AM – 4 PM are available too.

Question 2

Does a root canal hurt?

Accepted Answer

With modern anesthetic, the procedure itself feels similar to getting a filling. Most patients feel dramatic relief afterward, because the source of the pain, the infected nerve, is gone.

Question 3

Can I be sedated for my root canal?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our Greenpoint office offers nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and oral sedation for anxious patients, mention it when you book so we plan your visit accordingly.

Question 4

Do I really need a crown afterward?

Accepted Answer

For most molars and premolars, yes, the treated tooth becomes more brittle and a crown protects it long-term. We place crowns at the same office, so there is no second referral.

Question 5

Is it cheaper to just pull the tooth?

Accepted Answer

Upfront, sometimes. Long-term, almost never: the gap needs an implant or bridge, which costs more than the root canal and crown. We will show you both paths honestly, with real numbers.
