If a particular tooth has deep cavity that has reached the nerve of the tooth, root canal or rct is the only treatment option. Feeling will not be possible if it has crossed the filling stage
So please follow your dentist's advise

Namaskaram,
Rct is a very common procedure in dentistry. This is the treatment recommended for removing infection from inside of a tooth the pulp . It can also protect the tooth from future infections. Root canal treatment will usually save the tooth and eliminate the pain. Saving the natural tooth is best, if possible, because nothing functions as well as a natural tooth. Do visit your dentist for further treatment before its too late to save the tooth.
