Root Canal Re-Treatment at Vacaville Dental Group: Restoring Your Smile with Expert Care
If you've had a root canal treatment in the past but continue to experience pain or discomfort, you may require re-treatment to fully restore your oral health. Sometimes, root canal therapy does not achieve the desired results due to reinfection, incomplete healing, or missed canals. At Vacaville Dental Group, we specialize in re-treatment of failed root canals, offering personalized care to help you regain your comfort and restore your smile. A root canal aims to eliminate infection and save a damaged tooth, but occasionally, the tooth does not heal as expected. This could be due to factors like insufficient cleaning of the infected tissue during the initial procedure, delayed crown placement, or new decay allowing bacteria to re-enter the canal. Whatever the cause, our expert dental team is here to assess your situation and recommend the best treatment to restore your tooth.
What Is Root Canal Re-Treatment?
Root canal re-treatment involves reopening the previously treated tooth, removing the original filling, cleaning and disinfecting the canal system again, and resealing it with advanced materials to prevent further infection. At Vacaville Dental Group, we utilize state-of-the-art digital imaging and precision tools to ensure thorough and accurate treatment, addressing every detail of the affected tooth Signs You May Need Root Canal Re-Treatment:
Persistent pain or sensitivity in a tooth that has already undergone a root canal.
Swelling or tenderness in the gums near the treated tooth.
The development of a pimple-like bump on the gums (dental abscess).
Cracked or broken crowns or fillings that could allow bacteria to re-enter.
Discoloration or looseness of the treated tooth.
Ignoring these symptoms can lead to severe complications such as worsening infection, bone loss, or even the need for tooth extraction. Early diagnosis and timely re-treatment are crucial to avoid these issues.
