Endodontics—also called root canal treatment—allows for the preservation of teeth damaged by deep cavities, fractures, or internal infections. At our clinic in Can Pastilla, we perform the procedure with absolute isolation using a rubber dam to maintain a dry and clean field throughout the entire session.
The affected pulp tissue (nerve) is removed, the root canals are cleaned and disinfected, and hermetically sealed to prevent reinfection, thus preserving your tooth and its chewing function.
Technology and Protocol
Rubber dam (absolute isolation).
Determination of working length with an electronic apex locator.
Chemical and mechanical disinfection (active irrigation) and shaping with rotary NiTi files.
Three-dimensional obturation with gutta-percha and endodontic sealer.
Magnifying loupes when necessary.
Procedure
- Diagnosis and radiograph/CBCT if indicated.
- Local anesthesia and rubber dam placement.
- Opening of the pulp chamber and nerve removal.
- Shaping, irrigation, and determination of working length.
- Three-dimensional obturation and restoration (filling or crown, as appropriate).
Care instructions
Mild sensitivity may occur during the first few days. Avoid chewing hard on the tooth until it is fully restored and attend all follow-up appointments.
