When the inner portion of a tooth, including its root canals, becomes infected, very thorough and effective cleaning is needed to save the tooth from extraction. If our dentist and team recommend a root canal treatment, you can rest assured that your visit will be comfortable, efficient and convenient thanks to techniques and technology used during the GentleWave® procedure in Sandy, Utah. This advanced procedure is an innovative alternative to traditional root canal therapy. If you need a root canal treatment and want to take advantage of this state-of-the-art treatment system, please call 801-278-4787 to schedule with Dr. David S. Peterson at The Dental Studio.
The GentleWave Procedure uses a combination of fluid dynamics and soundwaves as ultracleaning technology to reach and delve into the microscopic spaces in your teeth, allowing thorough but gentle removal of bacteria and debris. The GentleWave Procedure has a very high success rate when disinfecting a damaged root canal.
The GentleWave Procedure is minimally invasive as it is able to preserve most of a tooth’s natural structure and enamel, keeping the tooth strong and healthy following the treatment. The GentleWave procedure typically allows our dentist and team to disinfect and repair a tooth in just one visit to our office, so you can get relief from your root canal pain fast.
A healthy and clean root canal is vital for a strong tooth, and the GentleWave Procedure can ensure that you get the high-quality results you need. Call today to schedule a treatment with our dentist!
