What is Rotary Endodontics?

You’ve probably heard of a root canal. While it is one of the most misunderstood treatments in dentistry, root canal therapy is one of the most beneficial dental procedures available. Root canals save infected or damaged teeth that would otherwise need to be extracted. Contrary to popular belief, root canals are not a painful procedure.

With the help of modern dental technology, root canals can be even more comfortable and effective than ever before. Rotary endodontics makes root canal therapy a win-win for both patients and dentists.

At Family Smiles Dental, we are proud to offer a smoother, more comfortable and more precise root canal procedure to our patients using rotary endodontics. Instead of traditional manual files and rigid stainless-steel instruments, rotary endodontics employs electrically-powered instruments with tips that are made of highly flexible nickel titanium. There are numerous advantages of using this technology when performing endodontic treatment.

Benefits of a Root Canal with Rotary Endodontics

The flexibility of the nickel-titanium instrument is the driving feature of rotary endodontic benefits. This instrument has the unique ability to maneuver easily and precisely into the deep curved pathway of a root canal, which means the infected pulp can be removed and the canal can be cleaned without stretching or damaging the delicate passageway of the tooth canal.

Patients and dentists prefer rotary endodontics during root canal therapy for the following valued reasons:

• Faster
• Superior precision
• Better reliability
• Quieter and smoother
• Less complications
• More comfortable procedure
