Super delicate endodontist decision to make first.

Is the root (pulp) still alive? They'd be obliged to try and save it, if it had even a chance. I'll never forget my first dentist, great old guy! He didn't know, but I was watching him very closely and listening. He had a bitter disdain for cosmetic dentistry. It was overtaking the importance of healthful* dentistry. They don't call a dentist , doctor for nothing right? If they were just going to drill and fill a dead tooth sure. A top of tooth down Gentle Wave procedure would make sense you're absolutely right.

But let's say it's a woman terribly conscious of her teeth. To keep her happy they're going to have to be able to save the root thereby saving a living tooth... and then they need to do as little damage to that tooth cap as possible! So that a cap or a filling would not be easily seen. Interesting thanks for making me think! 😉

What they might do is drill a hole big enough on each side of the top of the tooth to irrigate with Gentle Wave completely. But* not destroy all the Dentin on the top of the tooth. Gentle wave is a very interesting transition in that it enables the endodontist to perform stellar cleaning of the cavity but at the same time gives him better opportunity to save the Dentin more easily. So Gentle Wave combines both cosmetic and healthful dentistry better than any endodontist could before. ( Read more revenue for the dentist, greater> satisfaction for the patient.) 😎😘👍
