Contact UsWhat is root canal retreatment?
Many factors may lead to additional complications following root canal therapy. In some cases, the whole problem wasn't removed during therapy; in different cases, a new disease could have developed in the tooth. When a tooth reveals signs of disease after one or more root canals, our team will generally suggest endodontic retreatment. Like the initial root canal treatment, endodontic retreatment, or root canal retreatment, is performed to clean out the tooth's canals and remove the existing disease. Should you still suffer from pain or signs of an infection after a root canal, schedule an exam at 286 Madison Dental in New York, NY to decide if you will need an endodontic retreatment or another treatment.
Who is an ideal candidate for root canal retreatment?
Ideal candidates eligible for endodontic retreatment would be those who have had a root canal but are still experiencing symptoms of an infection in their tooth. The most frequent sign is discomfort or pain in the tooth that had the root canal therapy. If root canal retreatment is not possible, a tooth extraction or apicoectomy may be done at 286 Madison Dental. During your initial consultation at our office in New York City, we will review the best course of action to treat the infection and keep your tooth if possible.
286 Madison Dental Reviews
I have been looking for a dentist that accepts my insurance for a while and I think I have found one at 286 Madison Dental today. Dr. Jones is young and knows her stuff. She has a pleasant personality and listens to what you have to say. She is not quick to try to undo/redo/fix something that is not broken in your mouth. She gave me a thorough cleaning and exam and was quite accommodating. My search for a dentist is over, for now.

Dr. Jones and all her staff is amazing. Very caring, and detailed with my treatment plan. I was nervous at first but once I sat with Dr. Jones all my anxiety left. Highly recommended!!
After cracking a front tooth, I felt self-conscious and it had taken a toll on my confidence. Dr. Jones was incredibly understanding throughout the entire process.She was thorough in explaining everything, worked efficiently, and made sure my treatment was completed in a single day. She even helped navigate the insurance approval process.Most importantly, she gave me my smile back. The replacement tooth is absolutely beautiful, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I am grateful for the care and professionalism I received and would highly recommend them to anyone seeking exceptional dental care.
Been looking for a good dentist for a while now. I just went for a basic cleaning but Sharona the hygienist was insanely knowledgeable and helpful. Felt like I was genuinely in good hands throughout.

What happens during the root canal retreatment process?
An endodontic retreatment will be performed in our office using anesthesia to numb the treated area. If the procedure is lengthy or you've got dental worries, we could use other sedation options. When you are prepared, we will open the tooth and remove the filling substance placed during the prior root canal. The tooth's interior, including each tip, will then be thoroughly disinfected. After the tooth is cleaned and examined, it will be strengthened with new material and sealed. A dental restoration (bridge or crown) is normally placed over the treated tooth for protection.
What is recovery like following endodontic retreatment?
After your endodontic retreatment, you should take a day or two to rest and heal. We'll provide homecare instructions after your endodontic retreatment, which will include the ideal way to clean your mouth. You could be prescribed pain relievers or antibiotics that should be taken as directed. Once your gums have recovered, you must adhere to a great home oral care regimen with daily flossing and brushing. Moreover, you need to schedule annual examinations at 286 Madison Dental so we can track the tooth and your oral health.
