Microscopic Root-Canal Retreatment

Innovative microscope technologies

Because of our special training and expertise, we are now able to retreat even failed root-canals with a very high rate of success, deploying brand new techniques and modern technologies like the microscope.

This picture shows the situation before the root-canal retreatment.

• Inflammation in the jaw bone
• Under-filled infected root-canal system
• Gutta-percha
•  Post
•  Crown

Establishing access to the root canals require crowns, fillings and posts to be removed.

After the removal of the old root-canal filling, the canals can be cleaned and the inside of the tooth be thoroughly examined. This will identify previously undiscovered canal systems and any complex root-canal anatomy.

After cleaning the root-canal system it is filled and the tooth is sealed with temporary cement .

When necessary, the tooth is prepared for the insertion of a post.
