Endodontic Retreatment
Specialized care to eliminate persistent or recurrent infection and save teeth with previous root canal treatments.
What is Endodontic Retreatment?
Endodontic retreatment is a procedure performed on a tooth that has previously received root canal treatment but has failed to heal properly or has developed a new infection.
With proper care, most root-canal-treated teeth can last a lifetime. However, occasional factors such as narrow curved canals, complex branching, delayed crown placement, or new decay can allow bacteria to re-enter. Retreatment gives your natural tooth a second chance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Endodontic Retreatment, treatment timelines, comfort, and care expectations.
Root canals can fail due to complex anatomical variations (such as narrow or curved canals that were difficult to clean initially), delayed crown placement, a cracked crown allowing saliva leakage, or new decay exposing the canal filling to oral bacteria.
