Endodontics

Devitalization, or Endodontics, is a treatment that preserves teeth with deep cavities, fractures, or infections, avoiding extraction. When the dental pulp—living tissue inside the tooth—is compromised, it must be removed to eliminate pain and prevent the problem from progressing. The procedure includes removal of the infected tissue, thorough cleaning of the canals, and filling them with biocompatible material. We use a surgical microscope for better visualization, increasing effectiveness and predictability. When done well, it keeps the tooth functional for many years.

Endodontic retreatment is indicated when a previously devitalized tooth requires further intervention to restore function and integrity. This meticulous procedure corrects or improves previous treatments, giving the tooth a new chance to remain healthy. It involves removing the old material, disinfecting the canals, and refilling them. At Avenida Dental Clinic, we use a surgical microscope for maximum precision in complex internal structures. It is a safe and effective alternative to extraction, with long-lasting and predictable results.
