ROTARY ENDODONTICS
 

Endodontics, more commonly known as root canal therapy, is a procedure where the nerve of the tooth is removed. Root canal therapy may become necessary when the nerve tissue of the tooth becomes infected either through decay, tooth fracture or trauma.  The object of root canal therapy is to relieve the resulting discomfort and preserve the tooth.

Rotary Endodontics is a way of performing the root canal therapy utilizing slow speed precision drills. Rotary Endodontics often makes the process faster and the procedure more comfortable for the patient.
