What is Endodontic Retreatment?
Sometimes, a tooth that has received root canal therapy may not heal as expected or can develop new issues months or even years later. Endodontic retreatment offers a way to address these complications, saving the tooth and restoring its health and function.
Why Choose Retreatment With Us?
- Specialist Expertise – Dr. Koroni brings decades of experience in managing complex cases.
- Advanced Imaging – 3D scans help identify hidden canals, infections, or fractures.
- Gentle Care – Modern anesthesia ensures a comfortable experience.
- Tooth Preservation – Retreatment can save your natural tooth instead of replacing it.
The Retreatment Process
Assessment & Imaging – A careful evaluation with advanced X-rays or CBCT imaging.
Access & Removal – Old filling materials are removed to reach the root canals.
Cleaning & Disinfection – Canals are cleaned again, addressing infection or missed areas.
Refilling & Protection – The tooth is sealed and restored, often with a new crown for strength.
When is Retreatment Needed?
- Persistent pain or discomfort after a previous root canal
- Swelling, tenderness, or recurring infection
- New decay affecting a treated tooth
- Cracks, fractures, or hidden canals that were not treated initially
