Do not place ice directly onto exposed skin. You should leave the ice on your face for 20 minutes and then remove for 20 minutes. This can be repeated for 4-5 hours. Ice can be applied up to 48 hours after the root canal treatment. Ice will decrease the swelling and thus will decrease the level of pain to some degree. If slight swelling does not decrease after 48 hours or if moderate to severe swelling occurs at all, call the office immediately (978) 664-3141.
