At ZahnKlinik Nordhorn, we are committed to preserving your natural teeth for as long as possible. An important measure for this is modern and gentle root canal treatment (endodontics) – especially when the inside of the tooth is inflamed or has already died.
When is root canal treatment necessary?
The inside of the tooth, also known as the dental nerve or pulp, can become inflamed due to deep cavities, tooth fractures, or leaky fillings.
If this inflammation is not treated, it can spread through the root tip into the jawbone – with unpleasant consequences.
The symptoms range from throbbing pain, pressure sensitivity, and swelling to painless chronic inflammation, which is often discovered accidentally on an X-ray.
Not every inflamed tooth immediately causes acute symptoms – but every untreated tooth carries risks.
Your advantages at the Nordhorn Dental Clinic
Thanks to the latest technologies, state-of-the-art equipment, and a clearly structured treatment concept, we offer you efficient, low-pain, and safe root canal treatment – with the aim of preserving the tooth in the long term.
What we use:
- Magnifying glasses and dental microscope for maximum precision
- Machine-assisted, computer-aided root canal preparation for thorough cleaning
- Careful rinsing of the root canal system with disinfecting solutions
- Sound-activated rinsing technology (EDDY®) for effective activation of the rinsing liquid
- Digital X-ray for exact diagnostics and control
Why is modern endodontics so important?
Successful root canal treatment prevents the spread of inflammation in the body and protects the tooth from extraction. The more precise the cleaning and sealing of the canals, the greater the chance that the tooth will be preserved for many years – often decades.
