Endodontic Treatment
Endodontics or root canal treatment is a way to save a tooth when its inner tissue has become infected or decayed, injured or the dental pulp is inflamed. It involves cleaning out the infected tissue and nerve inside the tooth root and replacing it with a special filling which prevents discolouration and further infections. Since the body’s immune system is unable to heal an infection inside a tooth or tooth root by itself, root canal treatment is required to save the tooth and restore its function. Root canal treatment is performed using a dental microscope or other magnification technique.
The dental microscope is essential when working with root canals as the inner space of the tooth is difficult to see with the naked eye and the success rate of treatment without optical magnification technology is only about 80%. In order to provide a high-quality treatment, the dental microscope used at our clinic provides a significant magnification which ensures precision navigation through the intricate roots and canals area.
