If you have an infected nerve in your tooth or bacterial build up that is damaging your interior tissue, your dentist may recommend a root canal procedure.<\/p>\n<p>A traditional root canal involves filing inside of your tooth, which is a process that leaves bacteria behind as it can miss up to 60% of the canal walls. Many of the microscopic spaces where bacteria can hide remain untouched during a this procedure, and that can mean you&#8217;ll end up requiring another root canal procedure later on.<\/p>\n\t<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9pN9n0Mbrr8\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n\t\t\t\t<p>We have introduced the GentleWave\u00ae procedure, the very latest and most innovative technology in the field of Endodontics, to replace a standard Root Canal Treatment. It presents a major advancement that helps us achieve our goal to clean out the very complex root canal system within the tooth. The root canal system in multi-rooted teeth, especially molars, consists of intricate channels for the nerves and blood vessels.<\/p>\n<p>This system delivers a broad range of sound waves within the complex anatomy found with the tooth in concert with continuous irrigation. And, in a matter of minutes, results in complete cleaning and disinfecting of the entire network of canals. The incredible effectiveness of this system also allows us to conserve more tooth structure than ever before.<\/p>\n<p><strong>MULTISONIC ULTRACLEANING\u2122 TECHNOLOGY:<\/strong><br \/><strong>ADVANCING THE STANDARD OF CLEAN FOR YOUR TEETH.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Root canal procedures can save infected or damaged teeth by removing the pulp and bacteria from inside the tooth. Traditionally, this process has relied on metal files that physically scrape away decay and diseased tissue from within an infected root canal. But these files cannot easily reach everywhere within the canal, leaving as much as 60% of the canal space untouched. That means that bacteria is left to multiply inside your tooth &#8211; and over time, you could find yourself right back in your endodontist&#8217;s chair.<\/p>\n<p>The GentleWave\u00ae System represents an innovative new way of cleaning your root canal. With breakthrough Multisonic Ultracleaning\u2122 technology, a powerful vortex of treatment fluids, plus multiple waves of broad spectrum acoustic energy enable treatment fluids to reach every surface. Tissue, debris and bacteria are virtually eliminated, even in the microscopic tubules that traditional methods cannot reach providing unprecedented disinfection and a clean that has never been achieved before. Once you compare patented Multisonic Ultracleaning technology to traditional root canal methods, you&#8217;ll see what sets GentleWave treatments apart.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wpcms.tdosites.com\/socoendocms\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2022\/11\/dt01152017034957zeissscope2png.png.jpg\" alt=\"dt01152017034957zeissscope2png.png\" title=\"dt01152017034957zeissscope2png.png\" itemprop=\"image\"\/>\n\t\t\t<h3>Surgical Operating Microscope (SOM)<\/h3>\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<p>Over the years endodontics has adopted the surgical operating microscope that is used in other healthcare disciplines like ophthalmology. \u00a0This piece of technology is extremely valuable in allowing the endodontist to visualize the intricate and minute details of the canal anatomy inside the tooth. \u00a0The microscope provides three major advantages that allow for elevated quality of care: \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>1. \u00a0Increased magnification allows the practitioner to see the small orifices that lead to canals, the small changes in color and translucency of the dentin that serve as a road map for the canal anatomy and other details like hairline cracks and their depth of propagation. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>2. \u00a0The microscope bathes the operating field in bright white parallax free coaxial light. \u00a0This is probably more important than the magnification itself. \u00a0This allows the endodontist to see deep into light devouring conservative access preparations and delicate canal spaces.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<p>3. \u00a0The microscope allows the endodontist and his assistant to provide treatment in an ergonomical and comfortable manner. \u00a0Therefore your endodontist doesn&#8217;t have to hunch, strain his neck or contort into abnormal positions and this allows for procedural efficiencies that not only cut down on the amount of time that your treatment may require, but because your endodontist is comfortable the quality of care that you receive is obviously enhanced. \u00a0At SoCo Endo we are microscope trained professionals and all of our treatment and diagnostics are provided to you religiously through the surgical operating microscope. \u00a0Doctor and assistant work concertedly through the microscope as a technologically armed team.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wpcms.tdosites.com\/socoendocms\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2022\/11\/dt01152017041209kodak9000.jpg\" alt=\"dt01152017041209kodak9000\" title=\"dt01152017041209kodak9000\" itemprop=\"image\"\/>\n\t\t\t<h3>Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), 3D X-Ray Imaging<\/h3>\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<p>CBCT 3D imaging has technologically advanced x-ray imaging in a manner that has rocketed diagnostic accuracy and conservative treatment. \u00a0It serves as a tremendous aid in diagnosing diseases of the pulp and the tissues surrounding the roots of your teeth that can&#8217;t be seen with traditional 2D x-rays. \u00a0It is not only a diagnostic aid, but also serves as a treatment tool worth it&#8217;s weight in gold giving Dr. Boss a map\/GPS of your tooth before he even touches it. \u00a0Any outdoorsman knows the value of a good map and compass when venturing into the wilderness. \u00a0In more recent years GPS mapping has proven to be technologically as big a\u00a0breakthrough as the compass was centuries ago. \u00a0CBCT 3D imaging is to x-rays what GPS is to maps and compasses.\u00a0 Rest assured that having a 3D map of your tooth will allow Dr. Boss to expertly perform your root canal treatment while eliminating many uncertainties, making your experience more comfortable, shorter and more successful.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wpcms.tdosites.com\/socoendocms\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2020\/10\/software-screen-grab-monitor-1.png\" alt=\"software-screen-grab-monitor-1\" title=\"software-screen-grab-monitor-1\" itemprop=\"image\"\/>\n\t\t\t<h3>TDO Software<\/h3>\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\tWe use TDO Software as it is considered the best endodontic software available.
