At Apolonia Dental in Szczecin, we specialize in modern root canal treatment that allows you to preserve your natural tooth instead of removing it.
Root canal treatment is an effective way to save a natural tooth from removal. It consists in the precise removal of infected or damaged pulp from the dental canals, their thorough cleaning, disinfection and tight filling with specialized materials. The procedure is performed using a dental microscope and modern anesthetics, which ensures comfort and painlessness during the whole process. Our team cares about the precision and effectiveness of treatment to restore the health and function of your tooth.
Untreated caries can lead to serious problems, penetrating through the enamel all the way to the dentin, and over time reaching the pulp of the tooth. The best option in such cases is root canal treatment. This process involves the removal of inflamed or dead pulp from the tooth canals and tooth chamber. After thorough cleaning and disinfection, the tooth is neatly and hermetically filled. At Apolonia Dental we use advanced methods that support root canal treatment and reconstruction of even the most problematic teeth, destroyed by caries or damaged as a result of injuries.
Root canal treatment under a microscope is a modern and increasingly appreciated method, especially for teeth with complex anatomy. The use of a dental microscope allows a detailed examination of the inside of the canals and a precise assessment of the degree of their damage. The key to the success of the treatment is thorough cleaning and tight filling of the canals, which ensures lasting and predictable results. Thanks to its exceptional precision and effectiveness, treatment under a microscope is recognized as the most advanced endodontic method. At Apolonia Dental in Szczecin, we recommend them as the optimal solution for our patients.
We also specialize in reendodontics, i.e. re-root canal treatment of teeth previously treated endodontically. Sometimes primary treatment is ineffective due to underfilling of the ducts, leaving fragments of dead pulp or the development of inflammation, which causes a relapse of pain and infection. We perform even the most demanding procedures using a dental microscope and modern imaging diagnostics, including computed tomography, which allows you to precisely locate the cause of the failure and effectively save the tooth.
Root canal treatment under anesthesia is intended for people who have a strong fear of visiting the dentist, who have complicated dental problems or those who have to undergo long-term and burdensome treatment. Treatment under anesthesia makes it possible to carry out procedures without pain and stress. Our team of experienced specialists watches over every stage of the treatment. Thanks to modern techniques and advanced diagnostic methods, we ensure efficiency and precision even in the most demanding cases, taking care of your safety and comfort.

Before proceeding with root canal treatment, we carefully analyze the health of the patient's teeth. We start by taking an X-ray, which allows us to assess the length and anatomy of the dental canals.
Next, we apply an anesthetic — articaine, directly in the area of the tooth roots. It works by blocking the nerve impulses responsible for the sensation of pain, so that the root canal treatment is completely painless.
The next stage is to gain access to the inside of the tooth, that is, the pulp. We focus on precise and gentle piercing of enamel and dentin, minimizing damage to the tooth structure.
Using specialized tools, we carefully work out the root canals. This process is necessary to allow thorough disinfection with rinsing agents, which allows you to achieve the best results of treatment.
After the root canals are worked out, we thoroughly disinfect them with specialized antibacterial agents. The goal is to eliminate any bacteria so that the tooth does not become a source of inflammation in the future.
The final stage is the tight filling of the developed and disinfected root canals. This key action protects the tooth from the possibility of secondary infection and restores the full functionality of the tooth.

There are several advantages of root canal treatment under a microscope compared to classical endodontics:
Improved visibility — the microscope allows for a significant magnification of the field of view, which facilitates identification and navigation in the root canals. Anatomical details can also be seen better, which increases the chances of successful treatment.
Accuracy — the use of a microscope can lead to more precise processing and filling of channels, which can contribute to an increase in the effectiveness of treatment.
Less risk of damage — Root canal treatment can be invasive, and the microscope allows the doctor to act with greater caution, reducing the risk of damage to the tooth or surrounding tissues.
Better treatment of complicated cases — In the case of teeth with unusual anatomy, complicated canals or previously root canal treatment, a microscope can significantly help identify and treat these problems.
Root canal treatment of teeth under a microscope is preferable both from the point of view of the patient and the dentist, who can carefully examine the cause of the infection and implement an effective method of treatment. At Apolonia Dental, every root canal treatment is performed under a microscope.
Canal treatment under a microscope is an advanced technique that has many advantages over traditional methods. Here are some of the main benefits:
The duration of root canal treatment under a microscope can vary depending on several factors. Teeth with multiple root canals or with complicated anatomy may require more time to heal. For example, front teeth typically have one channel and can be treated more quickly, while molars often have three or more canals and may require more time. Teeth that are heavily infected, have advanced cavities, or have previously had unsuccessful root canal treatment may require a more complicated and time-consuming approach. Doctors with more experience in root canal treatment under a microscope may be able to perform the procedure faster and more efficiently. Also, the choice of techniques and tools can affect the duration of treatment. The use of modern tools and technologies can reduce the time it takes for root canal treatment.
In general, root canal treatment under a microscope can last from about 1 to 2 hours, depending on these factors. In some cases, treatment can be divided into several visits to ensure proper cleaning, disinfection and filling of the root canals.
It is important to remember that while duration is important, the quality and accuracy of treatment are critical to achieving good results and long-term success of root canal treatment.
Canal treatment under a microscope should not be more painful than standard root canal treatment. In fact, in many cases it can be even less painful, thanks to the greater precision and control that the microscope provides. The use of a microscope may allow for more precise and careful manipulation in the root canals, which reduces the risk of damage to surrounding tissues and potentially leads to less pain after the procedure.
For both root canal treatment under a microscope and standard root canal treatment, local anesthesia is used to block the sensation of pain during the procedure. The patient may feel a slight sting during the administration of anesthesia, but the root canal treatment process itself should be painless.
Ultimately, the level of pain associated with root canal treatment can be individual for each patient and depends on various factors such as the condition of the tooth, pain tolerance and general health. However, using a microscope should not increase the level of pain, and in many cases it can even help minimize the discomfort associated with the procedure.
Canal treatment under a microscope is often beneficial in cases that are more complicated or require exceptional precision:
Difficult canal anatomy — some teeth can have very complicated canal anatomy, including extra canals, very thin or curved canals that are difficult to see and treat without enlargement.
Canal re-treatment — In cases where previous root canal treatment has failed and re-treatment is necessary, a microscope may be necessary to identify and remove old filling material and to thoroughly clean the canals.
Removal of broken tools — If the tool used during root canal treatment breaks inside the canal, a microscope may be necessary to precisely locate and remove a fragment of the tool.
Cavities and Crack Repair — A microscope can help detect small cracks or cavities in the roots of teeth, which is crucial for proper treatment and protection of the tooth from infection.
In some cases, for various reasons, the root canals may be difficult to see or access using standard methods. In these cases, treatment under a microscope can provide an alternative that allows effective treatment.
Canal-treated teeth are whitened by introducing a whitening agent directly into the tooth canal.
