A Re-RCT removes old filling material, cleans out hidden infection, and reseals the tooth properly. It gives a previously treated tooth a genuine second chance – no extraction needed.
This treatment is not for everyone – here is an honest look at who it helps most, and when we might suggest a different path.
We take a detailed X-ray to map the old canals and locate the infection. You will know exactly what is happening before we begin.
Under comfortable local anaesthesia, we gently remove old filling material and thoroughly disinfect every canal. You should feel no sharp pain.
The canals are filled with fresh, biocompatible material and sealed. A crown is then placed to protect and strengthen the tooth long-term.
We use digital X-rays and rotary endodontic instruments for precise, faster, and safer treatment every time.
Our gentle anaesthesia technique ensures you feel relaxed and comfortable throughout the entire procedure.
Our dentists in Moula Ali have successfully retreated failed root canals with consistently high success rates.
Good aftercare is what turns a successful procedure into a tooth that lasts for decades. A little attention now protects everything we just repaired.
At Unique Dental in Moula Ali, we understand that coming back for a second root canal takes real courage. We promise to listen to your concerns without judgment, explain every single step before we take it, and make your comfort our first priority – not an afterthought. You will never feel rushed, confused, or alone in our chair.
Will it hurt?
Honestly, most patients are surprised by how comfortable it is. We use effective local anaesthesia, so the area is completely numb before we begin. You may feel mild pressure, but not sharp pain. Any soreness after the appointment is normal and usually settles within 2-3 days with simple over-the-counter pain relief.
How much does Re-RCT cost?
The cost depends on which tooth is involved, the severity of the infection, and how many visits are needed – so there is no single fixed price. What we can promise is that our fees are fair, transparent, and clearly explained before treatment begins. Call us or send a WhatsApp message to book a consultation and get a personalised estimate with no obligation.
Why did my first root canal fail in the first place?
Root canals can fail for several reasons – a missed canal, a tiny crack in the root, a breakdown of the old seal over time, or a new bacterial infection entering through a leaking crown. It does not always mean the first dentist made a mistake. Teeth are complex, and sometimes a second, more detailed look is simply what is needed.
What happens if I ignore it and do nothing?
The infection will not go away on its own. Over time it will grow, cause increasing pain, and can spread to the surrounding bone and neighbouring teeth. Eventually, the tooth may need to be extracted entirely – which is a more complex and expensive outcome. Acting sooner almost always gives you more options and a better result.
