Root Canal Treatment (Endodontics)
When bacteria reach the center of the tooth, root canal therapy preserves the natural tooth instead of extraction.
At Aurora Clinic Istanbul, we use rotary endodontics, digital apex locators, and dental microscopes to clean infected canals thoroughly and protect structural integrity.
Our clinical goal is to eliminate infection, relieve pain, and restore full function while maintaining the original tooth.
This is followed by a composite filling or a protective ceramic crown to reinforce the structure.
