My tooth requires a root canal treatment and i am worried if it pains during or after the treatment. I consulted a dentist who also told that one tooth needs to be extracted. Will it pain during the treatment?

Believe in your dentist. With proper administration of local anaesthesia it does not pain. Proper execution of root canal treatment or even extraction is not painful.

Hello..Root canal treatment and extraction both are done under local anesthesia which cause numbness of that particular area and it will be painless.If tooth is loose or decayed to the extent that it cannot be treated then only extraction is suggested.
