Root canal treatments (endodontics) can be quite complex, which is why they are often recommended to an endodontist or a dentist with a special interest in endodontics. Dr Da Silva has extensive experience in root canal treatment. Having him as part of the team, along with a state-of-the-art dental microscope means The Brighton Implant Clinic can handle even the most complex root canal treatments.

Root canal treatments are needed when the blood or nerve supply of the tooth (the pulp) is infected through tooth decay or injury. The aim of the treatment is to remove all infection from the root canal. The root is then cleaned and filled to prevent any further infection. The tiny root canal branches cannot be seen by the naked eye or even by magnifying glasses, which is why the new dental microscope is so essential to accurate treatment.

“With this microscope I am able to see canals that would have been difficult or even impossible to see without it. This means I don’t miss any areas of infection that could cause problems later. I can also be more precise in removing the nerve and pulp, meaning a less invasive procedure for the patient and the ability to preserve more of the tooth,” said Dr Da Silva.

The new microscope also helps to identify very small fractures in the tooth that might otherwise go unnoticed and result in unnecessary treatment. “With the new microscope we can be sure we’re not performing work on a tooth that is just going to be removed due to a fracture. This saves the patient time, money and additional procedures.” Book an appointment | Brighton Implant Clinic
