Root canal treatment under the microscope in Zürich-Enge: under up to 25 times magnification we find canals that stay hidden to the naked eye, clean them completely and seal them tightly. Usually in one or two sessions, with minimal discomfort. Your own tooth stays.
Around 1,500 root canal treatments a yearMSc EndodonticsAt the microscope since 2013
“The tooth throbs, especially at night. It reacts strongly to hot and cold.”
“I am apprehensive about a root canal. You hear so many stories.”
“The tooth has been treated before. Now it is acting up again.”
“I was told the tooth has to go. I would like to keep it.”
This is exactly what root canal treatment under the microscope is for.
A clearly guided sequence, explained step by step.
We examine the tooth with digital X-rays and under the microscope. You receive a clear assessment of how well the tooth can be preserved, and a written treatment plan.
Treatment is carried out under local anaesthetic. You feel touch but no pain, and we work at your pace.
Under up to 25 times magnification we find all the canals, including the fine and hidden ones, and clean them completely.
The canals are filled tightly and the tooth is sealed securely. Then we discuss how to protect it for the long term, for example with a ceramic restoration.
Nothing can fully replace your own tooth.
What you can see, you can treat. Magnification reveals fine canals, cracks and remnants of earlier fillings.
Around 1,500 root canal treatments a year, many of them on teeth that had already been given up on elsewhere.
Retreatments are a fixed part of our work: treating a tooth again when its earlier root canal treatment did not hold.
