Understanding Retreatment
When Is Retreatment Needed?
Endodontic retreatment becomes necessary when a previously treated tooth fails to heal or develops new problems. This can happen for several reasons:
- Incomplete removal of infected tissue from the first treatment
- New decay or a leaking crown allowing bacteria to enter
- Curved or blocked canals that weren't fully cleaned initially
- Root fracture or perforation in the original treatment
- Persistent or recurring symptoms like pain or swelling
Our Retreatment Process
Our comprehensive approach ensures the highest success rate:
- Advanced imaging and diagnosis to identify the problem
- Careful removal of previous filling materials
- Complete cleaning and shaping of all canals
- Three-dimensional obturation with modern materials
- Restoration to protect the tooth long-term
