\nIf you are experiencing pain or discomfort with your root canal, it might be time for a retreatment. Teeth that have undergone a root canal will normally last a longtime with proper care. Sometimes a tooth that has been treated may not heal properly and can become painful or infected months or even years after treatment. If your tooth failed to heal, you have a second chance. An additional procedure, retreatment, maybe able to save your tooth.<\/p>\n
During a retreatment, we will first take a CBCT scan. The images from our machine give us a 3-D view of your tooth vs a 2D view, which is of particularly valuable in retreatment cases. These images are invaluable in determining why the tooth failed to respond to the initial treatment and in helping us to determine a predictable treatment plan. We will reopen your tooth, remove the filling materials that were placed in the root canals during the first procedure. Unlike a standard root canal treatment, the retreatment will be done using Multisonic Ultracleaning technology. Using broad spectrum acoustic energy, this technology removes debris and tissue from your entire root canal system. Its able to dissolve organic tissue 8x faster than conventional devices and it reaches into the microscopic spaces that conventional root canal treatment cannot. The root canals are then filled and the opening in your tooth is sealed with a temporary filling. Then you will return to your dentist in a week or two for a new crown or other restoration to be placed on the tooth to protect it.<\/p>\n\t

Once you compare patented Multisonic Ultracleaning technology to traditional root canal methods, you\u2019ll see what sets\u00a0GentleWave\u00a0treatments apart.<\/p>\n
Multisonic Ultracleaning TM technology\u2019s broad spectrum acoustic energy removes debris and tissue from your entire root canal system. It\u2019s able to dissolve organic tissue 8x faster than conventional devices, and it reaches into the microscopic spaces that conventional root canal treatments cannot.<\/p>\n
The\u00a0GentleWave\u00a0procedure relies far less on instrumentation to clean your root canal system. Instead the\u00a0GentleWave\u00a0System uses a single-use sterilized handpiece to deliver broad spectrum acoustic technology and a powerful vortex of cleaning fluids throughout the canal. Many patients-especially those who have undergone root canal procedures in the past describe the experience as comfortable.<\/p>\n
