Beyond root canal therapy, retreatment, and apicoectomy, our team also provides a full scope of advanced endodontic procedures. These include treatments such as pulpotomy, pulpectomy, apexification, revitalization, internal bleaching, traumatic dental injury management, intentional replantation, root amputation, surgical and nonsurgical repair of resorptive lesions, bicuspidization, and hemisectioning. While these procedures are less commonly needed, they are available here in our practice to address complex cases and ensure you receive comprehensive care in one place.

Apicoectomy

An apicoectomy is a minor surgical procedure that removes the tip of a tooth’s root where infection is present. This approach directly targets the infected area when existing restorations make retreatment impossible, helping preserve the natural tooth and restore oral health.

Retreatment is the process of removing old root canal material from inside the tooth, thoroughly disinfecting the canals, and re-sealing the roots for long-term protection. Since root canals can occasionally fail or become re-infected over time, this procedure removes the source of infection and helps maintain the health and function of the tooth.

Root Canal Retreatment

Root Canal Therapy

Root canal therapy involves carefully accessing the canal system inside the tooth to remove infected nerve tissue, eliminate harmful bacteria, and seal the space to protect it from future infection. This treatment is performed to restore a “sick” tooth, relieving pain and stopping the spread of infection so the tooth can be preserved and returned to health.

Our goal is to preserve your natural teeth whenever possible, using advanced endodontic techniques to eliminate infection, relieve pain, and restore long-term oral health. Depending on your needs, treatment may involve one of the following procedures:
