Second Chance for a Painful Tooth with Microscopic Precision
We always give a second chance to a painful tooth treated elsewhere. Microscopic retreatment of failed root canal treatment in Varanasi ensures precision, pain relief, and long-term tooth preservation.
Failed Root Canal Treatment? We Can Save Your Tooth
A failed root canal treatment can cause persistent pain, swelling, infection, or sensitivity, even months or years after the initial procedure. At Big Smile Microscopic-Dentistry & Implant Center, Varanasi, we specialize in retreating failed RCTs using advanced dental microscopes, giving your natural tooth a second chance—without rushing to extraction.
Unlike conventional retreatment, microscopic root canal retreatment allows us to identify hidden canals, missed infections, broken instruments, and micro-cracks that are often invisible to the naked eye.
What Is Root Canal Retreatment?
Root canal retreatment is a specialized endodontic procedure performed when a previously treated tooth fails to heal properly or becomes reinfected.
During retreatment:
- Old filling material is carefully removed
- Hidden or missed canals are located
- Infection is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected
- The canals are sealed again with precision
- The tooth is restored for long-term strength
Our microscope-guided approach significantly increases success rates compared to traditional retreatment methods.
Why Root Canal Treatments Fail
A root canal may fail due to several reasons, including:
- Missed or extra root canals
- Incomplete cleaning during earlier treatment
- Poor-quality filling or crown leakage
- Delayed crown placement
- Fractured instruments inside the canal
- New decay allowing bacteria to re-enter
- Micro-cracks or fractures in the tooth
Using high-magnification dental microscopes, we can accurately diagnose and correct these issues.
Why Microscope Is the First Step in Retreatment
At Big Smile Varanasi, microscope-assisted dentistry is not optional—it’s essential.
Benefits of Microscopic Root Canal Retreatment:
- Up to 20x magnification for unmatched precision
- Identification of hidden canals missed earlier
- Safe removal of broken instruments
- Better cleaning of infected areas
- Reduced chances of re-infection
- Higher success rate and tooth longevity
This technology allows us to save teeth that would otherwise be extracted.
Signs You May Need Root Canal Retreatment
If you experience any of the following, consult a specialist immediately:
- Persistent tooth pain after RCT
- Swelling or pus near the treated tooth
- Pain while chewing or biting
- Sensitivity to hot or cold
- Discoloration of the tooth
- Gum boils or recurring infection
Early retreatment prevents bone loss, abscess formation, and systemic complications.

Retreatment vs Tooth Extraction – Which Is Better?
| Retreatment | Extraction |
|---|---|
| Saves natural tooth | Permanent tooth loss |
| Maintains chewing efficiency | Requires implant/bridge |
| Prevents bone loss | Bone resorption over time |
| Cost-effective long term | Higher replacement cost |
Whenever possible, retreatment is always the preferred option.
Who Should Perform Root Canal Retreatment?
Failed RCT retreatment should always be performed by a microscope-trained endodontist. General retreatment without magnification may miss critical details, leading to repeated failure.
