Rotary Endodontics

Rotary Endodontics

A new technology in endodontics is making the root canal experience more comfortable and efficient for the patient. Rotary endodontics involves the use of a electric-powered drill that uses a nickel titanium tip that is more flexible than traditional stainless steel files. Endodontics, more commonly known as a root canal, is a procedure where the roots or nerves of the tooth are removed. The pulp of the tooth is removed because it is infected and causing pain. Rotary endodontics is a way of performing the root canal utilizing a specific electrical handpiece. This tool makes the process faster and allows the dentist to perform the process with greater ease.
