Teeth Cleaning

Fillings
Crowns
In some cases, a tooth that has a root canal therapy can fail to heal. This may be caused by decay, a fracture, untreated canals, or under-treated canals. The tooth may become painful months or even years after a successful root canal therapy. If your tooth has not healed or has developed new problems, you have a second chance at saving your tooth. A new procedure, endodontic retreatment, can be performed by your endodontist. Endodontic retreatment is performed by reopening the tooth, removing the filling material, and cleaning out the infected area. This process is similar to root canal therapy, but the endodontist must also remove the crown, post, and old filling material, making it a more complex procedure requiring more time. A microscope is used to carefully examine the inside of the tooth and check for any additional canals. Once the canals are cleaned and sealed, a temporary filling material is placed. It is important that you see your general dentist once treatment has been completed to obtain a new restoration for your tooth. Preserving your natural tooth is always the best option for chewing and function, which is why retreatments are a great alternative for restoring your tooth to health.
Bridges

Root Canal Treatment
Most of the time, root canal therapy is sufficient to remove infection and save your tooth from extraction. In some instances when the tooth does not heal, anapicoectomy may be necessary. This microsurgical procedure consists of folding back the gum near the tooth so that the doctor can access the underlying bone and infected area. Once the infected tissue has been removed, the very tip of the root is also removed and the end is sealed with a biocompatible material. The gum is repositioned and sutured so that healing can occur. The bone around the root will naturally heal over the next few months.
Apicoectomy

Dental Implants
Root canal therapy is a commonly performed procedure in dentistry that can be used to treat infection and save a tooth from extraction, thereby preventing the need for dental implants and bridges. When a cavity or infection reaches the nerve of a tooth, a person may experience pain. Root canal therapy is done to remove the infected pulp of the tooth and irrigate the canals to remove bacteria. Local anesthesia is used to maximize comfort during the procedure. Once the canals are cleaned and shaped, a biocompatible filling material is placed to seal the decontaminated canals. The pulp is a collection of blood vessels & nerves located in the center of your tooth. This pulp can become infected due to trauma, decay, repeated dental procedures or cracks in the tooth. Symptoms of the infection include pain, swelling, sensitivity to hot/cold, or discoloration. If you experience any of these symptoms, your dentist will likely recommend root canal therapy. Sometimes, there are no symptoms, and the infection is detected in an x-ray.
