Root canal retreatment is a second attempt to save a tooth after a failed root canal. It removes infection, re-seals the canal, and preserves the natural tooth structure.
If a previous root canal becomes infected again, we remove the old filling material, disinfect the canals, and reseal the tooth to preserve its function and prevent further damage.
