What is a root canal treatment?

What is a root canal treatment?

Root canal treatment (endodontics) can save teeth whose nerve or Dental pulp inflamed or even already dead.

To save the affected tooth, the nerve is first removed from the root canal. The canal is then cleaned and filled with a special filling material to prevent foreign bodies from entering. Finally, a crown is usually placed on the tooth.

This treatment thereby saves the affected tooth and restores dental health.

Thanks to modern methods and technologies, we are able to offer you a careful yet gentle root canal treatment in our practice in 1020 Vienna.

Who needs root canal treatment?

Who needs root canal treatment?

The aim of endodontics is always to preserve a tooth for as long as possible.

Is the nerve in the tooth inflamed or even dead (non-vital tooth/necrosis), but the functionality of the tooth itself is still intact, a root canal treatment is necessary.

However, endodontic treatment may also become necessary if the the pulp is inflamed or so-called necrosis – meaning the death of the dental pulp – is already present.

Through a detailed, individual diagnosis we check whether root canal treatment is necessary in your case or if there are alternatives. You will receive all important information regarding the procedure, duration and costs from our practice.

How do I know if I have an inflammation in my tooth?

How do I know if I have an inflammation in my tooth?

An inflammation of the dental nerve manifests as the most typical sign of dental problems: toothache.

These toothaches occur mainly upon contact with certain foods (sweet, cold, warm).

If the inflammation has progressed further, your teeth will become sensitive to tapping and pressure. Many patients describe the pain that now occurs as throbbing. 

In the final stage, when the dental pulp has died, bite pain, inflammation of the gum/dentin or swelling occur.

Do you suspect your tooth is infected? Then don't hesitate, To get in touch and make an appointment at our clinic to make out. We will take a close look at your teeth and discuss the individual treatment with you.

Procedure for root canal treatment in Vienna

Procedure for root canal treatment in Vienna

1) DIAGNOSIS & TREATMENT PLANNING

We will examine your teeth and the painful area closely in order to plan the endodontic treatment in detail. You will receive detailed information on the procedure.

Dental dam

We isolate the affected tooth. This creates a dry and contamination-free environment for the treatment. Salivary bacteria are also kept away in this manner.

This increases the success rate of the root canal treatment.

3) Removal of the caries

If the inflammation of the nerve is caused by caries (the most common cause), we will remove it.

For this we use special drills, with the help of which we also create access to the dental nerve. This access is a hole on the tooth surface.

4) Tissue removal & cleaning

Now we are beginning the actual root canal treatment. For this, bacteria, germs and the inflamed tissue (nerve and blood vessels) inside the tooth are removed. This is therefore a thorough cleaning of the root canals or of the entire root canal system.

5) Obturation of the root canals

Once inflammation, bacteria and – if this was the cause – tooth decay have been removed, we seal the canals with a root filling. For this, we use exclusively biocompatible materials. This root filling prevents the renewed ingress of bacteria or tooth decay.

6) Fitting a crown

In most cases, a crown must be fitted following root canal treatment. This step is also carried out directly in our practice by our experienced dentists.

This is what matters to us in endodontics in Vienna

Permanent pain relief

We want you to get rid of your toothache quickly and permanently. Our root canal treatment in Vienna is a safe and permanent method for achieving this.

Gentle procedure

Thanks to the local anaesthetic, the procedure itself is also pain-free. We are happy to inform you beforehand about how exactly we will proceed.

Care

Lasting results can only be achieved through careful treatment. We therefore take particular care to ensure that all affected root canals are thoroughly cleaned.

Treatment under rubber dam

By using dental dam isolation, we create a dry and contamination-free environment. This increases the success rate of the root canal treatment.

We work precisely, tooth-conservatively & with minimal pain

We work precisely, tooth-conservatively & with minimal pain

Root canal treatment requires great care. Because only if the inflamed root canals are thoroughly cleaned and tightly sealed can the tooth be preserved in the long term.

In our dental practice, we rely on precise diagnosis, calm working methods and proven treatment steps for endodontic treatment. 

The affected tooth is isolated by the dentist using dental dam. This creates a dry and clean working area. Subsequently, inflamed tissue, bacteria and germs are removed from the root canals.

Through the sterile preparation of the root canal system, the risk of bacteria re-entering is reduced.

Modern endodontics in Vienna helps to carefully treat even fine structures within the tooth. The goal is always to preserve the natural tooth and provide lasting relief from discomfort.

Where does a dental inflammation come from?

Where does a dental inflammation come from?

Tooth decay – that's the tooth imp that was probably painted on the wall for everyone when they ate too many sweets as a child.

And unfortunately it is also the most common cause of inflammation of the dental nerve.

At first, the endodontium encapsulates itself. This consists of the dental pulp and dentine. Through this process, the tooth attempts to build a kind of additional barrier between itself and the decay.

Unfortunately, this barrier does not help in the long run. If left untreated, decay penetrates through the various layers of the tooth over time until it reaches the dental pulp and the root apex.

This is where the dental pulp and dental nerve become inflamed.

Aside from tooth decay, there are also other possible causes of an inflamed tooth root – including dental trauma (injuries) or the loss of hard tooth substance.

Benefits of root canal treatment

Benefits of root canal treatment

Root canal treatment is often a source of great dread. Yet it brings several benefits:

  • Saving your own tooth
  • Restoration of tooth aesthetics
  • Restoration of functionality
  • Promotion of oral health
  • Reduction of the infection risk

As a dentist, we have already performed many root canal treatments in Vienna and, thanks to the most modern methods, can offer an almost completely pain-free treatment.

Please feel free to get in touch with us – we are here for you and your tooth!

Tooth preservation instead of extraction

Tooth preservation instead of extraction

The aim of every endodontic treatment is to preserve the natural tooth for as long as possible. Because your own tooth is usually the best solution for function, stability and aesthetics.

Thanks to modern endodontic techniques, teeth that previously often had to be extracted can now be treated. Through thorough cleaning of the root canal system and the bacteria-tight sealing of the canals, inflammation can often be treated on a permanent basis.

I haven't seen a dentist for years because something always didn't suit me. Then I got really severe toothache and my search began anew. I came across Dr Bobb on Docnet and, because of my pain, managed to get an appointment for the very next day. What can I say? Everything was just right from start to finish. The reception by the ladies at the desk was very friendly and Dr Bobb's calm manner took away a lot of my fear. The procedure itself wasn't entirely straightforward, but everything went extremely well and there were no nasty surprises afterwards either. Definitely an absolute recommendation from me.

Friendly, objective, precise, every movement deliberate and skilful. Seemed very modern in terms of materials and methods too, as far as I can judge. I have rarely experienced such a good dentist. The practice is ultra-modern and well run, billing via the ÖGK works too. Prices are also OK for the quality. Also entirely OK for children.

I wanted to have a CT scan report looked at by a dentist before the weekend, and even though I'm with the ÖGK, Dr Arnold was kind enough to take the time and explained the reports to me in detail so I was able to get a clear picture. Very friendly and competent!

My daughter is an anxious patient through and through. Dr and the entire team were so empathetic that my daughter can hardly wait for her next dental appointment. Every question was answered with care and chosen words, which I thought was particularly great. My daughter was afraid of the X-ray, they took their time and explained every step to her. I was also there for a check-up and I felt in very good hands! Thank you 🫶🏼

We recently switched to the Zahnärzte am Campus because my daughter needed a special treatment.

Right from the first appointment, it was clear to me that we were in the right place.
Dr Salamon specialises in children, and you notice that immediately; she is professional, calm, very empathetic and has a wealth of experience that inspires confidence. She really takes her time and explains precisely what is going on and what the next steps are.
What I particularly liked is the transparency. The costs, especially for private or SVS services, are explained openly and comprehensibly, and no unnecessary additional treatments are suggested, with no hidden surprises.

Compared to our previous experiences, my daughter's treatment here was carefully planned right from the start. The consultation was honest and easy to understand; it was clearly stated what makes sense and is safe at this age, without any detours or expensive extra services. The cooperation with the anaesthesia team was also very pleasant, empathetic, professional and completely straightforward.
The surgery itself is modern, clean and really pleasant. Because of my daughter's good experiences, I eventually stayed for my own check-up and treatment, and the work there was also very thorough and professional.
Additionally, clinic assistant Alina impresses with her extremely friendly manner and professional demeanour. Vivienne was also very accommodating and carried out an excellent dental hygiene treatment.
The location has good transport links; it is best to travel by public transport as there is hardly any parking in the surrounding area, and it is about a five-minute walk from Praterstern.

Recently, my children and I visited the new practice of Zahnärzte am Campus, and we were all impressed. The practice is modern, very well-maintained, and has a play/drawing corner with a bookshelf for children. While my little daughter was busy playing, Dr. Salamon treated my five-year-old daughter's teeth. She was incredibly competent, empathetic, and patient with us. Dr. Salamon and her assistant explained every step to us and worked in such a way that they took away my daughter's fear of dental appointments. The practice team is also very friendly and helpful. Overall, highly recommended!

I went there this lunchtime because a tooth sometimes hurts slightly when chewing. Dr. Bobb was super nice and explained everything to me in detail. Everyone at reception was also very nice and it's a really beautiful practice. Highly recommended!

I was already a patient of Dr Agnes Salamon before she opened her own practice. Today was my first time in her own, new practice. Ground floor access, nice reception area, friendly greeting at reception, comfortable waiting area, modern and technically top-equipped. A piece of my amalgam filling had broken off. Professional amalgam restoration with a rubber dam was performed. Afterwards, a new filling was made. Dr Agnes Salamon has already performed several root canal treatments and fitted 2 crowns on me. I was genuinely scared of root canal treatments. However, she was always very attentive and always worked gently in my mouth. I trust her knowledge and manual skills.
Hello, I was at this dental practice today and had an absolutely fantastic experience! The dentists not only proved their professional competence, but also provided incredibly empathetic and friendly care. They took the time to answer my questions very clearly and explain the treatment in an understandable way. The practice itself looks truly first-class! It is extremely well-maintained and modernly decorated, which creates a very pleasant atmosphere.

I would like to thank the entire practice team from the bottom of my heart once again for the excellent care! I am always happy to visit this surgery! 😊
With lots of love, Elen

Root canal treatment FAQ (endodontics)

Root canal treatment is generally spread across several appointments. How long each appointment takes depends on how many root canals are inflamed, but it is usually between one and three hours. Following the diagnosis, our dentists will inform you precisely how much time will be needed in your individual case.

Thanks to state-of-the-art technology and methods, endodontics is nowadays largely pain-free. It is performed under local anaesthesia. Due to the irritation of the tooth, the root canals and the tissue, mild pain may occur after the anaesthesia wears off. Please feel free to speak to us – we will provide you with detailed information on the best way to manage this pain.

It is best to fit a crown after root canal treatment to protect the tooth. Everyday oral hygiene remains unchanged: toothbrush, interdental brushes or dental floss for the spaces between the teeth, and professional dental hygiene once a year.

No, unfortunately not every tooth can be saved with root canal treatment. If the tooth is already too decaygateau, yes inflammation of the dental nerve or the pulp too far advanced or if necrosis is present, another solution may need to be found.

As a dentist, we advise you precisely on which treatment makes sense in your case and what alternatives there might be to root canal treatment in Vienna.

The cost depends on which tooth is affected, how many root canals need to be treated, and how complex the treatment is. Subsequent restoration, for example with a crown, also affects the total cost. In our private practice, you will receive all the information and a transparent estimate of the expected costs before treatment.
With private dentists like us, you pay the fee note yourself first and can then submit it for reimbursement if applicable. We have contracts with the KFA and SVS. These can cover a portion of the treatment costs.
If a tooth can still be saved, root canal treatment is usually the better solution. The natural tooth remains in the mouth and can continue to be used. However, if the tooth is severely damaged, loose or the inflammation has progressed too far, extraction may be necessary. Which solution makes sense will be determined after a thorough examination.
The chances of success for a carefully performed root canal treatment are high, but also depend on good oral hygiene and patient cooperation during aftercare. Furthermore, crucial factors are the condition of the tooth, the number of root canals, the tightness of the filling, and the subsequent restoration with a filling or crown.
