Endodontic Retreatment
What is Endodontic Retreatment?
At Endodontics Limited in Miami, Dr. Gomez and Dr. Barros are dedicated to resolving even the most challenging dental cases. If a previous root canal hasn’t healed as expected or has become reinfected, our team offers precise endodontic retreatment to preserve your tooth and put an end to pain.
A retreatment is performed on a tooth that has already undergone a root canal but hasn’t healed properly or has developed a new infection. Although root canals enjoy a high success rate, factors such as residual bacteria, an unsealed canal or a hidden accessory canal can allow infection to resurface over time. Endodontic retreatment carefully revisits the tooth’s interior, cleanses any remaining infection and reseals the canals to promote lasting health.
Why consider retreatment?
Save your natural tooth
Retreatment allows you to keep your own tooth, maintaining the integrity of your smile and bite without resorting to extraction.
Prevent recurring infection
By disinfecting and resealing the canal system, retreatment minimizes the chance of future problems, protecting your investment in your dental health.
Comprehensive re‑cleaning
Using advanced imaging and techniques, we locate and clean every canal—including any that may have been missed previously—ensuring no bacteria remain.
A practical alternative
Compared to implants or bridges, retreatment is less invasive and more cost‑effective, preserving your tooth structure and avoiding more complex procedures.
Restore comfort and function
A successful retreatment alleviates pain and restores your tooth’s ability to function normally, so you can eat and speak comfortably again.
