GentleWave® Procedure
Most patients who experience the GentleWave® Procedure—especially those who have undergone standard root canal treatment in the past—are often surprised at how comfortable they are during and after the procedure. And the time they save with a single-visit treatment and fast recovery is surely something to smile about
For well over a century, root canal treatment has depended primarily on files to manually remove infected tissue and tooth structure from inside the tooth. Files, however, have limited reach inside complex root canal anatomy and may leave behind infected tissue and bacteria, leaving the tooth susceptible to reinfection.
The minimally invasive approach of the GentleWave® Procedure minimizes manual instrumentation and instead utilizes a powerful vortex of procedure fluids and acoustic energy that cleans the deepest, most complex portions of the root canal system.
