What Is Root Canal Retreatment?

Root canal retreatment is a procedure performed on a tooth that previously had a root canal but has failed to heal or developed a new infection. The old filling material is removed, and the canal is cleaned, disinfected, and re-sealed.

Why Is Root Canal Retreatment Needed?

Common reasons include:

  • Bacterial recontamination of the canal

  • Incomplete previous treatment

  • Formation of cysts or granulomas

  • Missed canals or root fractures

  • Use of outdated techniques or instruments

How Does the Retreatment Process Work?

The old filling is removed using special instruments. The canal is cleaned and disinfected under a dental microscope. A temporary filling is placed. After reevaluation, a permanent filling or crown is completed.

Is Root Canal Retreatment Successful?

Yes. When performed by an experienced endodontist using modern techniques, retreatment has a high success rate. Prognosis also depends on infection severity and root anatomy.

What Happens If Retreatment Is Not Done?

Untreated infections can lead to bone loss, abscess formation, neighboring tooth damage, and tooth loss. Chronic infection may also affect overall health.

How Many Sessions Does It Take?

Most retreatments are completed in 2–3 sessions. Some cases can be resolved in a single visit depending on the infection level.
