Micro & Guided Endodontics
Micro-Endodontics
Treatment performed under high magnification, for detail that cannot be seen with the naked eye.
What is it?
Micro-endodontics is the use of high magnification and illumination throughout diagnosis and treatment. It supports the location of hidden or calcified canals, conservative access preparation and the removal of obstructions, all of which are central to complex endodontic cases.
What does it address?
- Calcified or hard-to-locate canals
- Unusual or complex root canal anatomy
- Conservative, tooth-preserving access
- Diagnosis of cracks and defects
Who may benefit?
Applied across specialist endodontic treatment, and particularly relevant in difficult or previously treated teeth.
What to expect
- 01
Consultation
Examination, symptom history and radiographic assessment of the tooth.
- 02
Diagnosis
The condition of the pulp and surrounding bone is explained to you clearly.
- 03
Treatment
Carried out under local anaesthesia with magnification and precision instruments.
- 04
Review
Healing is monitored and referral back to your dentist for the final restoration.
Results
Magnification supports precision and tooth preservation; it does not by itself guarantee an outcome.
Frequently asked questions
Why does magnification matter?+
Much of the relevant canal anatomy is smaller than the eye can resolve unaided.
Is it a separate treatment?+
No — it is the standard of care applied during specialist endodontic procedures.
