Any procedure that is done after the patient has been putting up with pain for a month before seeking treatment will hurt more than if it was dealt with right away. The body is already inflamed and it hurts to have something done in an inflamed area.
Imagine if you hit your thumb with a hammer. Now imagine if you hit it again the next day. You'll feel like it's going to explode.
Root canal can hurt, maybe 1 out of 10 times. That 1 guy where it hurts probably waited until the tooth was already really killing him before he went for treatment.
I tell my patients that root canal treatments are like teenagers. 9 out of 10 are no problem at all, but you always hear about the bad ones.
It's not a "procedure," but from what I've seen having a dry socket is pretty bad. So is having an untreated dental abscess. The longer it goes, the worse it gets.

I have never had a painful dental procedure done, but I will tell you I have had some painful injection with those needles. Expecially when they are trying to numb down to the nerve to do the root canal. Other than that I was knocked out for all 4 of my wisdom teeth, my root canal, fillings, crowns, and cleanings have not hurt. I have had a lot of dental visits and I have tough gums so that is why those shots hurt.

For those who answered root canal...you forgot dental implants...this is the most invasive proceedure that a dentist can perform. If dental proceedures are performed properly there should be no pain in the dentist chair, it's only after the procedure is over that there is pain. This can be controlled with medication. Dental implants tend to leave the patient with the most post procedure pain over any other.

First of all I should say to Ms Laynne that central nervous system are brain and spinal cord not the dental nerves.
and for your answer,root canal therapy is the most painful if we dont get a good anesthesia to the patient.because we work exactly on the nerves.but I have patients that they didnt even know that I `ve taken the nerve out!

Whats painful more than the pain of root canal and removal of wisdom teeth is getting your smallest dental problem fixed by a Egyptian dentist . Not that they are all bad, but they are sending thier garbage [ dentists] to the Middle east [ arabian gulf] to treat expats and thats sheer hell.

I would say having your wisdom teeth extracted. it is a major surgury to your jaw, and most people experiance a lot of swelling afterwards.
