Your tooth can't speak, but it definitely sends signals when something's wrong! Here are the common warning signs that might indicate you need a root canal:
- Persistent, severe toothache
- Temperature sensitivity
- Tooth discoloration or darkening
- Swollen, tender gums
- A small pimple-like bump
- Discharge or pus
- Facial swelling
- Fever accompanying your dental pain
Sometimes, a tooth needing root canal treatment doesn't cause any noticeable symptoms, which is why regular dental checkups are so important for catching problems early.
