Root Canal Re-Treatment at Canyon Ranch Dental: Restoring Comfort and Confidence
If you've previously had a root canal but continue to experience pain, sensitivity, or discomfort, you may need root canal re-treatment to fully restore your oral health. Sometimes, initial root canal therapy may not achieve the desired results due to reinfection, incomplete healing, or overlooked canals. At Canyon Ranch Dental, we specialize in re-treating failed root canals, providing personalized care to help you regain comfort and preserve your natural smile. A root canal is designed to remove infection and save a damaged tooth, but occasionally, the tooth may not heal as expected. This could be due to incomplete cleaning of infected tissue during the original procedure, delayed crown placement, new decay that allows bacteria to re-enter the canal, or missed canals. Whatever the cause, our experienced dental team carefully evaluates your tooth and recommends the most effective treatment plan to restore both function and comfort.
What Is Root Canal Re-Treatment?
Root canal re-treatment involves reopening a previously treated tooth, removing the old filling material, thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting the canals, and resealing the tooth with advanced dental materials to prevent further infection. At Canyon Ranch Dental, we use modern digital imaging and precision tools to ensure every detail of the affected tooth is addressed. This technology allows for accurate diagnosis and treatment, improving the success of your re-treatment procedure. Signs You May Need Root Canal Re-Treatment:
Persistent pain or sensitivity in a tooth that has undergone a root canal.
Swelling or tenderness in the surrounding gums.
A pimple-like bump on the gums (dental abscess).
Cracked or damaged crowns or fillings that allow bacteria to enter.
Discoloration or looseness of the treated tooth.
Ignoring these warning signs can lead to more serious complications, including worsening infection, bone loss, or even the need for extraction. Early evaluation and treatment are essential to protect your oral health.
