Microscope Root Canal Treatment in Kolkata

Microscope root canal treatment is a modern, highly advanced procedure designed to save infected or damaged teeth. It uses a specialised dental microscope that provides magnified views of the root canals, shows intricate details, and enables dentists to perform the procedure with unparalleled precision. This technique addresses complex dental anatomy, removes infected tissue, and reduces the risk of reinfection.

Why Microscope Root Canal Treatment?

When the tooth’s inner chamber (pulp) becomes infected or inflamed, it can lead to severe pain and tooth loss. Traditional root canal treatment removes the infected pulp and fills the space to prevent reinfection. It has multiple advantages, such as:

  • Minimally Invasive – Removes less tooth structure.
  • Allows clinicians to see and treat root canal anatomy that is not visible to the naked eye.
  • Increases predictability and precision of the procedure.
However, in some cases, traditional methods may not be sufficient to address complex issues such as:

Narrow or curved root canals:

These can be difficult to access and clean thoroughly without a microscope.

Hidden canals:

Some teeth have additional, smaller canals that may be missed during traditional treatment.

Previous root canal failures:

If a previous root canal treatment was unsuccessful, microscope root canal treatment can help identify and address the underlying issues.

Calcified canals:

Over time, the canals within the tooth can become calcified, making them harder to navigate.

    If you are experiencing any of the following symptoms, microscope root canal treatment might be the solution:

    • Intense tooth pain that worsens when chewing or applying pressure.
    • Sensitivity to hot or cold, even after the source is removed.
    • Swelling or tenderness around the gums near the affected tooth.
    • Tooth discolouration caused by internal damage of the tooth due to trauma and infection.
    • Recurring lumps or pus in the gums that indicate infection.
    • If you have had an unsuccessful root canal treatment in the past.

    Increased Success Rates:

    The magnified view allows for more thorough cleaning and filling of the root canals and reduces the risk of treatment failure.

    Tooth Structure Preservation:

    By minimising the need for extensive removal of tooth material, it helps to preserve more of the natural tooth structure.

    Reduced Risk of Complications:

    The improved accuracy can help to minimise the risk of complications, such as root perforations or instrument breakage.

    Enhanced Comfort:

    The precision can often lead to a more comfortable procedure and faster healing time.
