I have to get  4 RCT's done for myself. Can all four be done together or one by one they will be completed? How many days does it take for one RCT procedure to be completed?

Send xray. It depends upon the technique of doing treatment. Do as suggested by your dental surgeon.

There are few factors to be considered- 1. If all 4 teeth are located on same side of your jaw it is easier to do the RCT  , if not Dr may hv have to anaesthesize both side of ur mouth 2. Severity of infection : If the affected tooth is not having any underlying pus ,RCT can be done in single Sitting 3. duration  of the treatment - 1 RCT  ..single sitting may itself take up to half hour or more, so u can calculate  yourself. 4. Availability  of Dr. 5. U have to visit after few days for caps
Next Steps
Better opt for Rct which are on side and same jaw

This is determined according to the location of the teeth being treated,  facilities available and time at last. Adjacent/opposing teeth can be treated simultaneously. However, your doctor will give you final word on it.
