How does Root Canal Treatment treatment work?

Step 1: Diagnosing and planning

After an in-depth evaluation with the help of our in house CBCT (3D radiographic images), we decided we could still save the tooth. Owing to a chronic infection, we would need to redo the root canal treatment.

Step 2: Root canal treatment and rebuilding the tooth

Once confident we could save this tooth, our endodontist proceeded with the revision of the root canal treatment. The tooth was then rebuilt with a post and core and finally a new zirconia crown was delivered, restoring strength, function and also aesthetics.
