Root Canal Therapy/Re-treatment

If applicable, it will be completed under rubber dam isolation and microscopic magnification. Usually, the pulp chamber is opened first to access the root canal, which is then shaped with nickel-titanium instruments and irrigated with medicated solutions to remove infected tissue; during re-treatment, old fillings can be removed and blockages addressed. If necessary, medication is placed at intervals, followed by three-dimensional filling and temporary restoration, with X-rays taken after the procedure for evaluation. Early post-operative attention is given to pain, swelling, and occlusal sensitivity, with the goal of controlling infection and preserving the function of the affected tooth. The above is general health information, not medical advice; specific details are subject to specialist evaluation and hospital protocols.
