A root canal procedure typically takes **60 to 90 minutes** per tooth. In some cases, it may require **one or two appointments**, depending on the severity of the infection and the tooth being treated. Your dentist will determine the exact time needed.
The duration of a root canal procedure can vary, but typically, a simple root canal on a tooth with one canal can take between 30 and 60 minutes. However, more complex cases, especially those involving molars with multiple canals, may require more than an hour. It's not uncommon for the procedure to be completed in one visit, but sometimes a second appointment is necessary if there's an extensive infection that needs more time to clear.
1-2 hours
