Endodontic treatment package 4 canals (1st and 2nd stage) with microscope

How is a 4-canal tooth treated under a microscope in Astra Dent clinics?

Treatment of a four-canal tooth under a microscope is usually performed in two stages:

• First stage. During the first stage, the damaged tooth tissue is removed and access to the root canals is created. Anesthesia is administered, after which an Astra Dent dentist gains access to the tooth. The tooth is then cleaned of caries and enamel defects. Next, the dentist opens access to the root canals using a microscope to magnify the image and ensure more precise work. Special instruments are used to remove all dead or damaged tissue from each root canal of the tooth.
• Second stage. During the second stage, the dentist prepares the canals for filling. First, the canals are rinsed with special solutions to remove all remaining tissue and microbes. Then, the canals are filled with a special root canal filling material that helps prevent reinfection and preserve the tooth for a long time. After that, the tooth is sealed with a filling.

All procedures are performed under a microscope, which allows for more precise and effective removal of damaged tissue and filling of the canals. It also helps preserve healthy tooth tissue and reduces the likelihood of reinfection. In general, treatment of a four-canal tooth under a microscope is a modern and effective method of endodontic therapy.

Why is the treatment performed in two stages?

Treatment of a four-canal tooth is carried out in two stages because this approach allows for more effective cleaning of the root canals and helps prevent reinfection.

Thus, dividing the treatment into two stages makes it possible to clean the root canals more thoroughly and ensure effective filling with material, which in turn reduces the risk of reinfection and increases the likelihood of successful and long-term tooth preservation.

How effective is the treatment of four-canal teeth under a microscope?

Treatment of a four-canal tooth under a microscope is considered a highly effective method of endodontic therapy. The use of a microscope allows the dentist to see the root canals more accurately and remove dead or damaged tissue that may be missed during traditional treatment without magnification.

In addition, treatment under a microscope ensures that all root canals are addressed, not only those visible to the naked eye. This further increases treatment effectiveness, as all possible sources of infection are eliminated.

Moreover, microscopic treatment involves the use of more advanced equipment and materials that allow better cleaning of the root canals and filling them with specialized materials. This reduces the risk of reinfection and increases the likelihood of long-term tooth preservation.

Research studies also confirm the effectiveness of treating four-canal teeth under a microscope. Many studies show a higher percentage of successful outcomes when a microscope is used compared to traditional treatment methods.

Thus, treatment of a four-canal tooth under a microscope is a highly effective method of endodontic therapy that allows for more thorough cleaning of the root canals and prevention of reinfection, increasing the chances of successful and long-term tooth preservation.

What does the cost of treating a four-canal tooth under a microscope in the Astra Dent dental network depend on?

The cost of treating a four-canal tooth under a microscope may vary depending on many factors, including the dentist’s qualifications, case complexity, the need for additional procedures, and the use of specialized instruments and materials.

Typically, the cost of treating a four-canal tooth under a microscope consists of several components, including:

• consultation with an endodontist: includes examination of the tooth and diagnostic tests to determine whether treatment under a microscope is required. The consultation in the Astra Dent network is free of charge;
• microscopic treatment: includes removal of dead or damaged tissue from the root canals, irrigation of the canals, and filling them with special materials. The cost may vary depending on case complexity and the use of specialized instruments and materials;
• additional procedures: if additional issues arise during treatment, such as root canal perforation, extra procedures may be required, which can increase the cost;
• medications: root canal treatment may require the use of medications such as antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs, which may also increase the overall cost.

However, if treatment is needed, it is advisable to consult your endodontist to receive a more accurate cost estimate for your specific case.
