COASTAL DENTAL GROUP
Surgical Operating Microscope (SOM) Enhanced Root Canal Treatment.
Root canal treatment is one of the most common dental procedures. Almost 16 million treatments are performed every year. By incorporating advanced technologies such as microscope and micro-instruments Coastal Dental Group Dentist can perform root canal treatment with a predictable outcome and reduce trauma to a tooth. SOM provides exception vision to located microscopic root canal systems which are mostly unattainable by dental loupes, eyeglasses or normal eye vision. Locating root canals with instruments tactile sensation without confirming direct vision of canal systems, often lead to tooth perforation and resulting in 10% of root canal treatment failures.
Root Canal Treatment
