The Benefits of Endodontic Retreatment
The Endodontic Retreatment Process
Consultation & Diagnosis
A thorough clinical and radiographic evaluation will be completed. Belmont Endodontics has a convenient in-house CBCT machine to keep your care under one roof! Using the image and your physical exam, Dr. Taggar will determine the issue with your tooth. All treatment options will be presented to you so you can be in charge of decision making. If endodontic retreatment is recommended, an individualized care plan will be discussed with you in detail.
Cleaning & Disenfecting
A local anesthetic will be used to numb your area of concern. We make this injection as comfortable as possible! Other various sedation options will available to you throughout the appointment. After adequate anesthesia, Dr. Taggar will address the source of non-healing using an advanced dental operating microscope. This process involves removing any old filling material and locating any areas of concern. The root canal system will be cleaned with special instruments and disinfectants.
Filling & Follow Up
Once your tooth has been completely cleaned and disinfected, the interior will be filled. Belmont Endodontics uses only a very safe and biocompatible filling material to help your body adapt and heal the area. Next, a temporary restoration will be placed on top of the area on the tooth to keep the root canal safe. You will then need to see your general dentist who will place a permanent cover. This follow up is important! Belmont Endodontics will also schedule a one year follow up appointment with Dr. Taggar to make sure your tooth is still healing well.
