The need for root canal treatment is often perceived as an unpleasant surprise discovered during the treatment of advanced tooth decay.
Until recently, canal treatment was carried out solely under the control of the dentist’s tactile sensitivity and X-ray data.
However, the limitations of a dentist's tactile sense and X-ray distortions often lead to mistakes, poor treatment quality, and ultimately, tooth extraction.
It is common to encounter previously poorly treated root canals, broken instruments left inside the canals, perforations of the root walls (or floor of the pulp chamber), unfilled accessory canals, or canals filled incorrectly to the apex.
The treatment of such canals is considered highly complex — it requires not only modern equipment but also extensive experience and high-level professionalism from the doctor.
Acute and chronic inflammation in the pulp and periodontium can cause severe pain and become a source of inflammatory processes, potentially aggravating internal organ conditions — thus requiring immediate treatment.
Endodontic treatment methods make it possible to save even severely damaged or infected teeth and prevent complications that could otherwise lead to tooth loss and serious soft or bone tissue diseases.
Today, the use of a microscope and advanced techniques for cleaning, processing, and sealing root canals can often be the last chance to preserve a tooth and ensure proper treatment.
The dentists at Vivadent Dental Clinic have extensive experience in handling complex endodontic cases.
Vivadent specializes in the conservative treatment of cysts and granulomas, removal of broken instruments, retreatment of difficult canals, and treating teeth with identified perforations.
