Root Canal Retreatment

Root canal retreatment is a procedure performed when a tooth that has previously undergone a root canal treatment becomes reinfected or fails to heal properly. During retreatment, the endodontist regains access to the canal system, removes the old filling material, cleans and disinfects the canals again, and then reseals the tooth with new root canal filling material. This helps to eliminate the infection and restore the tooth’s health. At Ideal Endodontics we specialize in treating this condition.
