Microscopic Root Canal Treatment Success ?

Re-root canal treatment, also called endodontic retreatment, is a procedure to save a tooth when a previous root canal fails or becomes reinfected. A smile design specialist in Hyderabad removes the old filling material, cleans the canals thoroughly using microscopic tools, and reseals the tooth to eliminate infection and preserve your natural tooth structure.

According to Dr Jaydev Matapathi,Smile design specialist in Hyderabad,
“Most root canal failures can be successfully treated with retreatment using advanced microscopic techniques, giving your tooth a second chance.”

Microscopic root canal treatment offers significant advantages over conventional RCT by enhancing visualization and precision in restorative dentistry.

1. Superior Magnification: Dental microscopes provide 3X to 25X magnification and powerful 50,000-lumen light sources, enabling clear visualization of root canals.
2. Hidden Canal Detection: Microscopes help identify accessory canals such as MB2 and DB2, which are often missed during traditional root canal treatment.
3. Precise Cleaning: Enhanced visibility ensures complete removal of infected tissue, debris, and bacteria from even the smallest canal spaces.
4. Reduced Complications: Microscopic vision prevents instrument separation, allows retrieval of broken instruments, and enables detection of micro-fractures.
5. Better Sealing: Complete canal cleaning and accurate filling under magnification reduces microleakage and prevents reinfection.

According to published research, microscope-assisted root canal treatment in posterior teeth shows a 2.9-fold higher success rate under strict criteria and a 3.2-fold improvement under loose criteria. The overall success rate reaches 95-99% when performed by experienced specialists using microscopic techniques.

Understanding the distinctions helps patients choose the right restorative dentistry approach for root canal treatment.

1. Visibility and Precision: Regular RCT relies on feel and X-rays, while microscopic RCT provides direct visual access to canal anatomy.
2. Success Rates: Traditional root canal treatment has an 85-90% success rate, while microscopic root canal treatment achieves 95-99%.
3. Treatment Duration: Microscopic RCT may take slightly longer per session, but often prevents the need for retreatment.
4. Cost Difference: Regular RCT costs ₹3,000-₹7,000 per tooth in India, while microscopic root canal treatment ranges from ₹8,000-₹15,000.
5. Complex Case Management: Microscopic techniques excel in difficult cases involving curved or calcified canals, or those with previous treatment failures.

A smile design specialist in Hyderabad using microscopic technology can preserve more natural tooth structure, reduce procedural errors, and deliver predictable long-term outcomes. The higher initial cost often proves economical by eliminating the need for retreatment.
