Root Canal Retreatment
Re-treats a previously root-filled tooth that has become reinfected.
Overview
Root canal retreatment addresses a tooth that fails to heal or becomes reinfected after an earlier root canal. The old filling is removed, the canals are recleaned and resealed, giving the tooth a renewed chance to heal and avoid extraction.
What to expect
- A consultation and assessment to confirm root canal retreatment is right for you.
- The procedure typically takes 1–2 visits.
- Most people need around 2–4 days to recover.
- Your dentist will explain aftercare and any follow-up visits.
