Root canal retreatment doesn’t have to be a mystery—and it definitely doesn’t have to mean extraction 🦷❌.
In this episode, we deep dive into cutting-edge research that shows how modern, non-surgical endodontic retreatment is achieving success rates of up to 85–87% 📊✨.
We unpack what really influences healing—from lesion size and apical filling length to the power of long-term follow-up 🔍.
With today’s tech like CBCT, microscopes, and advanced instruments, saving a previously treated tooth is more possible than ever 🛠️🧠.
If you’ve ever wondered when retreatment works, why it fails, or how clinicians make evidence-based decisions, this one’s for you 💡.
No fluff, just science—translated into real-world dentistry 🦷📚.
Let’s rethink failure, redefine success, and talk about how saving teeth is evolving 🚀😄.
