Re-root canal treatment

Re-root canal treatment becomes necessary when bacteria remain or re-enter the root canal system after an initial procedure. This may occur due to complex root anatomy, delayed placement of a crown, new decay, or cracks that allow infection to develop over time. Patients may experience symptoms such as persistent pain, swelling, sensitivity, or gum abscesses near the treated tooth.The earlier root canal filling material is carefully removed, allowing access to the inner canals. These canals are then thoroughly cleaned, disinfected, and reshaped to eliminate infection completely. Special care is taken to reach areas that may have been missed earlier. Once the canals are properly treated, they are sealed again to prevent future bacterial entry.
      The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring patient comfort throughout. Modern instruments and strict sterilization protocols are followed to provide safe and precise care. Most patients experience significant relief from pain soon after treatment, along with improved function of the affected tooth.After re-root canal treatment, restoring the tooth is essential for long-term success. A dental crown is often recommended to strengthen the tooth and protect it from further damage.
