1. What is dental retreatment in simple words?

Retreatment is the repeated cleaning and filling of root canals that have already been treated before, but unsuccessfully. The doctor removes the old material, removes the infection, finds and treats the missed canals, and then hermetically closes them. The tooth stops hurting and remains alive.

2. If the tooth has already been treated, why does it hurt again?

The reasons are different: a missed canal, poor cleaning, bacteria left behind, a crack in the root, a leaky filling or crown. Without a microscope, these problems are difficult to notice. At KAN Dental we use 3D CT and Diagnocat to find and correct any. error.

3. Is tooth retreatment painful?

No. We apply the anesthesia gently: first, apply the gel to the injection site, then the anesthetic itself. For anxious patients, sedation and treatment are available (anesthesia).

Yes, definitely. If you leave everything as is, the infection will grow. First, periodontitis will develop (pain when biting, swelling), then an abscess (abscess) or cyst. As a result, the tooth will have to be removed, and sometimes the infection can spread to the jaw and even to neighboring teeth.

Optimally - 1-2 times. Each retreatment requires the removal of part of the tooth tissue, the walls of the canals become thinner. If after two attempts the infection returns, the tooth will most likely have to be removed. But at KAN Dental we do everything to ensure that the first retreatment is the last.

Saving your tooth is always preferable. Retreatment is cheaper and faster than implantation, and your tooth is a natural support for the jaw. Implantation is an excellent option if the tooth is so damaged that it cannot be saved. At KAN Dental, we will honestly say what is better in your case.

7. Is it possible to treat a tooth during pregnancy?

Yes, but only in the second and third trimesters and for urgent reasons (severe pain, purulent inflammation). We use safe anesthetics and CT scans with a minimal dose of radiation. In the first trimester, it is better to postpone planned retreatment. hole in the crown, re-treats it, and then closes the hole with a special material. But if the crown is old or leaky, it will still have to be replaced.

9. How much does it cost to re-treat a tooth at KAN Dental Clinic?

The cost depends on the complexity: how many canals need to be re-treated, whether there is a broken instrument, whether a pin needs to be installed. cost: canal retreatment; diagnosis: CT scan with Diagnocat analysis; tooth restoration with a filling or crown. We name the exact price after the first consultation and CT scan. None. surprises.

The most common mistakes and complications after primary canal treatment

Even an experienced doctor without a microscope can make mistakes. Here are the main reasons why retreatment is required:

Missed canal. Many teeth have additional, very thin canals that are not visible on a regular x-ray.
Impassable or curved canal. Complex anatomy prevents high-quality cleaning.
Bacteria remained in the canal after incomplete treatment.
Insufficient filling. The canal is not filled tightly, there are voids - a breeding ground for bacteria.
A broken instrument in the canal is blocking the passage. and interferes with treatment.
Perforation of the canal wall. The doctor accidentally made a hole through which the infection penetrates into the bone.
Bacteria got under the crown and caused secondary caries.

At KAN Dental we make such mistakes. correcting.

Stage 1: Accurate 3D diagnostics with Diagnocat

At the consultation we do a 3D CT This is a three-dimensional image that shows all the roots, canals and surrounding tissues. Then we load it into Diagnocat - artificial intelligence trained on millions of images. It automatically:

counts the number of root canals and marks their anatomy;
finds hidden caries, cysts, granulomas;
identifies calcified ones. (overgrown) areas;
measures the area of inflammation at the root apex.

Stage 2: Treatment under a microscope

After diagnosis, the doctor proceeds with the diagnosis. retreatment:

Anesthesia. First, anesthetic gel is applied to the injection site, then the anesthetic itself. You do not feel pain.
Isolation. We install a rubber dam - the tooth is completely isolated from saliva and bacteria.
Access to the canals under a microscope. Using 20-30x magnification, the doctor removes the old filling or crown, removes the pin (if any). antiseptics.
Temporary filling. A medicinal paste is placed into the canals to relieve inflammation, the tooth is closed with a temporary filling.

Stage 3: Control CT control and final restoration

After 1–2 weeks, when inflammation leaves:

We take a control CT image to make sure the canals are clean.
We constantly fill the canals with hot gutta-percha - the material hermetically fills all branches.
We install a permanent filling or crown to protect the weakened tooth from fractures.

The whole process is controlled by a microscope and Diagnocat. The result is a healthy tooth that will last for many years.
