After root canal therapy and the placement of a dental crown, a tooth should remain secure and free of pain. For many people, their initial treatment will effectively put a stop to any oral health problems they were experiencing. However, others may find that they still have tooth pain to address, or they may begin to experience new troubles at a later date. When problems affect a tooth that has previously been treated, retreatment can be necessary. Retreatment is a process where a tooth is carefully restored a second time in order to remove a new infection, or to make sure all bacteria and damaged tissues are removed. Our El Paso, TX endodontic treatment facility is prepared to provide these services. In addition to focusing on matters that concern the internal health of a tooth, we can rely on advanced imaging technology, including microscopes, to make sure the source of your dental problems is found and addressed.
Are You Experiencing Problems With A Tooth That Has Already Undergone A Root Canal?
Root canal treatment should put a stop to discomfort caused by an injury or advanced cavity. If your tooth still hurts after a recent procedure, or if pain becomes a concern again after a period of time, it suggests that something is wrong and must be addressed. During a consultation to discuss retreatment, we can review the process for evaluating the problem tooth, accessing its inner structure to perform treatment, and the steps we take to re-seal it and protect it against further difficulties.
We Can Carefully Address Your Tooth Trouble Through Retreatment
When working on a tooth that has already been treated and restored, your endodontist will take care to minimize any further changes to its structure. After carefully clearing away material used to seal your tooth after your earlier procedure. Once this is done, we can carefully examine the pulp and canals to find the reason for your problem. After treatment is completed, we can make sure that the tooth is properly sealed once again, and send you to your dentist to have a crown restore the tooth.
