Root canal treatment, endodontics

  • A small rubber elastic bandage is attached around the tooth (rubber dam) to keep it free of saliva and bacteria during the treatment
  • endometrial length measurement of the channels
  • The root canals are widened manually and mechanically with special files
  • Mechanical cleaning and disinfection of the entire root canal system

How long does a root canal take?

A session lasts about 60 minutes, but may take more or less time. This essentially depends on the individual problem situation. It depends on whether a first or revision treatment takes place. A role also plays the degree of inflammation and destruction of the tooth.
