What is Rotary Endodontics?

If you’ve had a root canal to save an infected tooth, it probably didn’t occur to you to ask what types of tools your dentist used. However, if your dentist used the old, manual file for removing the infection, the procedure may have been more nerve racking than if rotary endodontics technology was used. That’s why Dr. Eric Meyer uses these tools in our office in Fullerton.

Providing a smoother, more comfortable experience during root canals, rotary endodontics technology allows Dr. Meyer to remove the infected pulp in the inner root canal more quickly, more smoothly and with less chance of complications. These electric instruments prove superior to the traditional, stainless steel files. They are made of nickel titanium, which is much more flexible than stainless steel, so it can be inserted into the curved root canal without damaging the passageway.

In addition, the tools are much quieter, without the grinding noise that other tools produce, which can help with your nerves during the procedure. This is why both the doctor and patients prefer this technology. While the manual method works adequately at saving teeth during root canals, rotary endodontics tools are much less scary and are easier to use.

We prefer to use this technology at our office in Fullerton, CA because we always put our patients’ first and the tools are smoother, quicker and more consistent than the traditional method. To schedule an appointment, call 714-879-7943. For more information about our practice, our services and our technology, visit www.FullertonDental.com.
