AFTER

Treatment
The root canal was cleaned to remove the old medication and bacteria, then filled with MTA cement. At the 3-month follow-up, the area of inflammation at the root tip (the dark shadow) had decreased, with signs of bone regeneration and healing. MTA cement provides a seal and has antibacterial properties because of its high alkalinity.
Duration & visits
About 1.5 to 2 months (about 4–5 visits). Follow-up: 3 to 6 months after treatment
Cost
From ¥29,700 (tax included) (breakdown: MTA cement ¥22,000 + root canal filling material ¥7,700). *A CT diagnostic fee (¥3,960) and the cost of a crown are an additional charge.
Risks & side effects
Temporary pain or swelling can occur during treatment or just after it. If the shape of the root canal is complex or the area of infection is too large, surgical treatment may become necessary, and there remains some risk that the tooth will not achieve complete healing and will need to be extracted.
