Re- RCT is not a painful process , but sometimes if you feel even slightest of pain then the dentist will give you local anaesthesia , you wont even get to know when your treatment got over. Regarding scaling , its a normal cleaning process carried out on daily basis.

Re RCT can be done with or without anaesthesia although the procedure is slightly more elaborate technically and usually requires more appointments. It would be recommended to consult an Endodontist ( root canal specialist) for the same as they can treat you in a much better way.
Scaling is a procedure where the surface deposits and stains are removed using ultrasonic energy and is thus very simple and painless.
