Specialized Endodontics: Three-Dimensional Sealing and Rotational Technology
At our dental clinic, we remain at the forefront of advanced endodontics to save teeth that have suffered significant damage to the pulp, either by deep infection, extensive decay or trauma. Our goal is to preserve your original tooth with the maximum success rate, avoiding extraction through a precision surgical protocol.
Cutting-Edge Technology to Save Your Tooth
We do not perform conventional root canals; we apply a technological ecosystem designed for total disinfection and an indestructible seal:
-
Thermafil Sealing System: The gold standard in canal sealing. Unlike traditional “cold filling”, Thermafil uses a thermoplastic gutta-percha coated core that, when heated, flows and adapts three-dimensionally to all irregularities, curvatures and lateral micro-ducts of the tooth, guaranteeing a tight seal that prevents future reinfections.
-
Last Generation Rotary Endodontics: We use mechanized systems with Nickel-Titanium (Ni-Ti) files. This technology allows us to clean and shape the canal in a much faster, more precise and uniform way than the manual method, reducing treatment time and stress on the tooth.
-
Electronic Apical Localization: For a perfect seal, we use digital locators that measure the length of the root with an accuracy of 0.1 mm. This ensures that the treatment reaches exactly to the apex of the tooth, avoiding calculation errors and guaranteeing total healing.
-
Ultrasonic Disinfection: Prior to sealing, we activate the disinfectant solutions using ultrasound. This process eliminates bacteria in the deepest and most inaccessible areas of the duct system, where physical instruments cannot reach.
-
Magnification and Microscopy: We work with magnified vision systems to locate calcified ducts or complex anatomies that would go unnoticed with the naked eye, eliminating the risk of leaving hidden foci of infection.
Patient Benefits
-
Maximum Success Rate: Thermafil three-dimensional sealing drastically reduces the need for re-endodontics in the future.
-
Fast and Efficient Treatment: Rotary technology shortens the time in the cabinet, making the experience much more comfortable.
-
Quiet postoperative period: As it is a procedure of high precision and minimal manipulation, the subsequent swelling is minimal.
-
Structural Longevity: We reinforce the tooth from the inside so that it can support a future reconstruction or crown with total security.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the difference between Thermafil and conventional endodontics?
Conventional dentistry uses cold tips that can leave gaps. Thermafil, being a hot, plastic material, flows through the entire anatomy of the tooth, ensuring that not a single gap is left unsealed. It is a three-dimensional seal.
Is this system suitable for all teeth?
It is especially effective in molars and teeth with curved or complex canals, where traditional methods often fail. Our specialists will use digital radiology to evaluate your anatomy before proceeding.
Will I notice anything different with rotary endodontics?
You will feel less vibration, less noise and, above all, you will spend less time with your mouth open. The procedure is much more agile and fluid than with the manual files of yesteryear.
Does the price increase when using so much technology?
Although it requires single-use materials and advanced equipment, in our clinic we consider it the necessary standard. It is an investment to avoid tooth loss and the much higher cost of a future implant.
What is the apex locator and why is it better than an X-ray?
The X-ray is a 2D image that can be misleading. The electronic locator measures the electrical resistance of the tissue to give us the exact actual length, ensuring that the Thermafil filling reaches right where the tooth ends.
What care should I take after treatment?
The same as in any root canal: avoid chewing very hard foods until the tooth is definitively reconstructed with a filling or crown, since the tooth without a nerve is more fragile until it is externally protected.
Do you offer financing options for treatments?
Yes, at Clínica Dental Puchol we offer payment facilities through Kutxabank. We can finance your treatments in a personalized way so you can take care of your dental health with total peace of mind.
