In earlier days 3-4 sittings used to happen in RCT, now a days, with latest technology in dentistry it’s been done in a single visit also. But it all depends on the tooth, if ur doctor is taking multiple sittings with RCT, there may be some infection in the tooth. Pls check with him once !!!
Next Steps
take the X-ray of RCT treated tooth from the doctor and take 2nd opinion if you have any doubts
Health Tips
Don’t bite hard or chew hard from the treated tooth unless Cap is not placed

More number of sittings required when the tooth is complex in its anatomy, or any infection present. Kindly clear your doubt with doctor and if any second opinion required kindly post the xray.
