Root canal treatment under a microscope

Microscopic root canal treatment is an advanced technology used by dentists at the K+31 clinic. The optical device allows for dental procedures to be performed under direct control, to clean thin and complex canal systems, and to remove infected tissue. Thanks to modern treatment methods, the number of hopeless tooth extractions has significantly decreased.

Features of root canal treatment under a microscope

Treatment of tooth canals under a microscope in the K+31 clinic is highly accurate and effective. Using an optical device increases the image of the working area up to 40 times, which allows you to identify microcracks, hidden carious cavities, perforations and microfractures at an early stage. The accuracy of therapy is increased due to the ability to assess the condition of the oral cavity, detect complex branches and minimize the risk of complications. This is especially important when working with teeth with complex anatomy of root canals or when re-sanitation of previously filled cavities.

The microscope helps to detect the remains of the old filling and defects, which eliminates the need for removal and helps to preserve its structure. The device also allows you to achieve better sealing of fillings and prevent the formation of cysts.

Using the device reduces the risk of small cavities and microcracks, the development of recurrent inflammation. The device provides a more gentle therapy and helps to preserve healthy areas.

Indications for treatment under a microscope

Optical devices have found wide application in dentistry. They are used in a number of cases:

  • Early detection of enamel damage
  • Treatment of caries, cracks and chips
  • Therapy of root cavities in case of deep caries, pulpitis (inflammation of the nerve), periodontitis (inflammation of tissues around the tooth root)
  • Detection of cracks and fractures in the root
  • Repeated treatment of canals after unsuccessful primary therapy
  • Removal of fragments of dental instruments remaining in cavities and intracanal pins
  • Determination of canal punctures
  • Treatment of granulomas and cysts at the roots
  • Therapy of periodontal diseases (inflammation of tissues surrounding the tooth)
  • Performing surgical interventions in dentistry (flap operations, root resections, hemisections, etc.)
  • Visualization of the surgical field for more accurate installation of implants
  • Tooth restoration using composite materials
  • Microprosthetics using inlays, veneers, lumineers

General information about the procedure

Advantages of treatment under a microscope

The main advantages of using a microscope include:

  • The ability to examine small caries lesions, the structure of narrow cavities in the tooth, the tightness of the filling or dentures, cracks and the structure of the enamel
  • Reduced risk of medical errors due to the visibility of atypical branches and the ability to qualitatively fill the canal without the risk of breaking the instrument
  • Thorough cleaning and tight sealing, which prevents re-inflammation and the formation of cysts
  • The ability to save a severely damaged tooth from removal by careful opening, correcting errors and maintaining functionality
  • Precise control of the density of filling the canal with filling material, which helps prevent voids
  • Preservation of healthy tissue, since the doctor removes only the affected areas
  • Detection of cracks in the tooth, which allows you to make the right decision on the advisability of therapy or the need for removal

Precise and delicate manipulations under the microscope reduce the trauma of procedures, reduce pain and discomfort for the patient. Increased efficiency of working with the device helps to reduce the overall treatment time and the number of visits to the dentist.

How is the treatment performed?

Treatment of canals under a microscope in the K+31 clinic takes place in several stages:

  1. Diagnostics. The doctor uses a device to identify the source of infection and determine an accurate treatment plan for the tooth
  2. Anaesthesia. Local anesthesia is administered to ensure the patient's comfort. It eliminates pain and provides minimally traumatic effects on soft tissues and nerve nodes of the pulp
  3. Isolation. The tooth is isolated from the rest of the oral cavity using a cofferdam (latex plate). It maintains the sterility of the operating area and eliminates contact of instruments with the patient's lips, cheeks and tongue
  4. Processing. The doctor uses ultra-thin instruments to clean hard-to-pass small canals. Thanks to the microscope, all surfaces of the cavities are visible without distortion
  5. Sterilization. Ozone or laser treatment is performed to destroy bacteria, viruses and fungi in the oral cavity
  6. Obturation. The cavities are filled with polymer materials or gutta-percha, which ensures sealing and durability of the result

After obturation, a filling or crown is installed.

Answers to popular questions

Doctors from the K+31 clinic in Moscow answered frequently asked questions regarding treatment using optical devices.

Where is the microscope located during treatment?

During treatment, the patient lies in a prone position on a chair. The device is located on top, at a distance of 25-35 cm from the face. The dentist sits behind the patient's head and looks into the microscope's eyepieces. All manipulations are transmitted to the monitor screen, allowing the assistant and the patient to see what is happening.

Is it true that treatment under a microscope helps save "hopeless" teeth?

Yes, therapy under a lens significantly increases the chances of saving teeth. For example, if the nerve is removed, but the tooth still hurts, the device helps to detect the problem and get rid of it, while preserving the tooth.
