No one wants their root canal treatment to fail, but it does happen. And at ONE ENDO®, we’re here to help with root canal retreatment that can eliminate your discomfort, protect your smile, and treat your tooth infection once and for all. Most commonly, root canal retreatment is needed because complicated canal anatomy or other issues went undetected during your initial root canal, and the infection was not completely eliminated. If your root canal fails soon after the initial procedure, this is likely what happened.
Why Do I Need Root Canal Retreatment?
At ONE ENDO®, we use advanced CBCT imaging to reduce the risk of problems with your
root canal therapy and ensure the best possible chance of completely eliminating the infection during your initial treatment. In some cases, though, a root canal can also fail after a few years due to new decay, a loose, broken, or cracked filling or crown, or a tooth fracture that damages the tooth and causes new decay. Root canal retreatment is also necessary in these situations to save your tooth and preserve it.
HOW LONG DOES RETREATMENT TAKE?
It’s typical for endodontic retreatment to take about the same amount of time as a root canal, since the process is very similar. 90 minutes is the typical time for the procedure, though your appointment could be longer or shorter depending on your particular situation.
WHAT IS THE SUCCESS RATE OF ROOT CANAL RETREATMENT?
The success rate for root canal retreatments is between 80 and 88%, which is only slightly lower than the success rate for initial root canal therapy. It’s a very effective procedure, especially when performed by experienced endodontists.
Is Endodontic Retreatment Painful?
No. Just like your first root canal treatment, your mouth will be completely numb during the process, and we offer sedation at ONE ENDO®. You’ll be completely comfortable throughout your visit. If you’re experiencing tooth pain or discomfort, we recommend booking a consultation as soon as possible.
What to Expect During Root Canal Retreatment

I am a total scaredy-cat when it comes to dentists. All my concerns and worries were taken care of by Dr. Chen. She was awesome. Her bedside manner was just the best and really made me feel at ease. Her workmanship was impeccable and I am 24 hrs past my root canal- pain free. Just can’t say enough about Dr. Chen.

Dr. Mastroianni and his team are fantastic! I went to their office in severe pain and they addressed it immediately. The technology they used to find the route of the problem was like anything I have seen before. He was able to quickly find the issue and direct me to resolution. I would recommend 10/10!

I was referred to One Endo to detect and treat the source of severe tooth pain. Dr. Mastroianni quickly determined the source of the pain, took the time to explain the problem and the options for treatment, and performed an emergency root canal immediately. I highly recommend One Endo - and in particular Dr. Mastroianni.
