Root canal treatment at the highest level
Our root canal treatment: microscopic precision work down to the smallest detail.
The root canals of the teeth are a complex system with many branches and every tooth is different. That is why we work with a so-called surgical microscope in our practice in Frankfurt city center. This enables us to better locate, expand, fill and seal the extremely fine and often widely branched canals in the tooth. These are the most important conditions for the long-term success of your treatment.

The surgical microscope – we take a close look.
With the surgical microscope, we have an optimal view of your teeth and root canals, which enables us to work with particular precision. Of course, our dentists are specially trained for this treatment method in addition to their knowledge of endodontics and root canal treatment.
It is also possible to treat previous root canal treatments that have become leaky very well with the surgical microscope. That’s why we always take a very close look at your case. In other words, the better we can see your teeth, the higher the success rate of your root canal treatment.

Questions and answers on the subject of root canal treatment
Why do you need root canal treatment?
Root canal treatment is necessary if the inside of the tooth (pulp) is inflamed or infected, usually due to:
- Deep caries
- a crack or fracture in the tooth
- Repeated dental treatments
The treatment saves the tooth instead of extracting it.

In our dental practice in Frankfurt, we offer high-quality root canal treatment with the aid of a microscope. As this requires a great deal of time, an additional payment is required for patients with statutory health insurance.

How long does a root canal treated tooth last?
With good care, it can last for many years or even a lifetime.

Why does the dentist take a DVT (3D X-ray) before root canal treatment?
At our practice in Frankfurt, we plan root canal treatment using a three-dimensional X-ray. This allows us to see the number and course of the root canals in advance, thus reducing risks and complications such as file breakage.
