When is a root canal treatment necessary?
A root canal treatment is required when the inside of your tooth, where the nerves and blood vessels are located, becomes inflamed. This can happen due to tooth decay, leaking fillings, or a blow to the tooth. Symptoms such as sensitivity to temperature changes, a throbbing sensation, swelling of the gums or cheek, and pain when biting may indicate a need for this treatment.
Our treatment:
Our endodontists use advanced techniques to make the treatment as comfortable as possible. After a thorough diagnosis, the inflamed pulp is removed, the canal is cleaned, and then sealed to prevent further infections. We ensure a thorough approach that maintains and restores the integrity of your tooth.
Painless procedure
Many patients fear that a root canal treatment is painful, but thanks to local anesthesia, you will feel little to nothing during the procedure. After the treatment, there may be some post-treatment pain, which usually subsides quickly and can be well managed with common pain relievers.
Insurance coverage and costs
Children up to 18 years: The costs for root canal treatments for children up to 18 years are fully covered by the basic insurance.
Adults: Adults need to take out an additional dental insurance to claim reimbursement of the costs for a root canal treatment.
Prevention and aftercare
In addition to treatment, we advise regular check-ups and good oral hygiene as the best way to prevent problems in the future. Regular visits to our practice allow us to detect and address any issues early.
