Could Root Canals Need Retreatment?
When a tooth becomes infected, treatment is required. Without care, the tooth could become necrotic. At this stage, the tooth might require extraction. Otherwise, the infection moves into surrounding teeth. If posible, the ideal treatment for an infected tooth is root canal therapy. This procedure is effective, but sometimes a tooth becomes infected again, and treatment is once again necessary. You may need to book an online appointment with one of our Beaver endodontists for a root canal redo.
A root canal involves removing the tissues from the inside and root canals. The interiors and root canals are thoroughly cleaned, and a restorative material known as gutta-percha is then applied to the interior. Often, the tooth is then restored with a tooth crown. The restoration is often custom-made to protect the tooth and also look natural. But if there are complications with the procedure, the health of the tooth could be compromised. The tooth could begin developing symptoms, such as toothaches and discomfort when biting down. If you experience this, do not risk missing teeth.
