Endodontics is a specialty of dentistry which deals with the treatment of the tooth pulp and represents the basis of dentistry, as the life of a tooth depends in the first place on how accurate this treatment has been performed.
Tooth devitalization (removal of the tooth pulp, of "the nerve", from the pulp chamber and the root canal), either due to a complicated cavity or performed for a prosthetic purpose, involves a particularly accurate root-canal filling.
The modern equipment used ensure a correct and precise treatment of the root canal:
- THE APEX LOCATOR - identifies the apex and establishes the real length of the root canal
- The rotating NICKEL - TITAN device ensures an adequate widening and cleaning of the canals
- Injecting warm gutta-percha - THERMAFILL SYSTEM - ensures the best lateral and vertical condensation of the root canal, resulting in a precise and correct root filling.
