What is a root canal procedure?

Root canal procedures, or endodontics, is a treatment for the inner pulp of the tooth. They are performed to save teeth from extraction. The dentist or endodontist, a root canal specialist, cleans out the decayed or damaged pulp without breaking the exterior of the tooth root. The cleaned root canal is filled with a bio-compatible rubber-like material called gutta-percha. They are also performed for patients with damaged teeth caused by accidents or fractures. The procedure takes one to two hours to complete.

What are the types of root canal procedures?

Primary root canal treatments are performed using stainless steel files. Stainless steel files could remove only a small amount of infection and could easily break. The more advanced and flexible nickel titanium files do not break easily and are able to clean the entire infected area easily. Rotary instruments used to clean the root canal are quicker than manual instruments. Other advanced root canal procedures make use of ultrasound or laser to effectively clean the root canal.

Is a root canal procedure painful?

Root canal procedures are performed under local anaesthetic. Patients will not feel pain during the procedure.

What is the recovery time after having a root canal procedures?

Patients take about three days to recover after a root canal procedure. Some patients require a week to recover from a root canal procedure.

When can I travel by air after a root canal procedure?

It is safe to travel by air one day after a root canal procedure. Patients should check with their dentist before embarking on their journey. If they feel pain or discomfort, they should postpone their journey until it abates.

What care is required after a root canal procedure?

Patients should take all prescribed medications correctly. They should not eat until the anaesthetic wears off. They should not eat or drink very hot or very cold food for at least a week. They should avoid eating hard food or sticky food. If swelling occurs they should sleep with their head raised for a few days to bring it down.

What are the alternatives to root canal procedures?

Alternatives to root canal procedures include extractions and pulp capping procedures.

I won't go any place else now that I've received this excellent careGerald, US, 12 04 23

Vivianne was great, communicated very patiently and went way beyond the usual service. Two implants and a new upper denture were all very well done and she made sure I was completely satisfied before she let me leave, taking the extra time to do some final adjustments so they all fit perfectly. I won't go any place else now that I've received this excellent care.

My husband and I had a lot of dental work done recently, and we are very pleased with the outcome. The dentists are very skilled, and up to date with all modern technology. They are ahead of a lot of clinics here in the US. Dr Kevin and Dr Daniela are excellent. Had very little discomfort with procedures done. Would highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for dental care. Laura at reception is most helpful in making appointments and scheduling around travel.

I greatly appreciated the sensitivity and understanding shown by all of the TeamJulie, US, 17 11 24

I was blown away by the professional and caring treatment I received from the Team. The level of English was way beyond what I expected, and as someone who has lived through some serious Dental trauma when young - I greatly appreciated the sensitivity and understanding shown by all of the Team. They listened to me, and we worked together to make it a super comfortable pain-free experience. I came to Peru to experience the Country. I did not expect to find a truly compassionate and understanding Team, that let me smile with confidence again! I know where to come the next time I need any dental work. Thank you again.

At the end of the process, my teeth were perfectRyan, Colombia, 13 02 24

I am a digital nomad from the United States, living and working in Latin America for two years. My friends had received braces from Esthetic Dent, and I went in for a consultation. I decided to get braces. For 2 years I flew to Bogota every month for an update. At the end of the process, my teeth were perfect. The total cost was around $2,000 not including traveling expenses. Olga the owner speaks English which makes the process perfect for Americans. A lot of the customers are American. The office is impeccable, the service and the results are either on-par or better than what you can get in the United States, at 500% cheaper in my case. Bogota is a very easy city to fly to from the United States, and many neighbourhoods are extremely safe. Stay around Parque 93 which is an upscale neighborhood but is cheap compared to USA living prices. And you can easily walk to the Esthetic Dent office. Download Google Translate and become good at using it. That’s all you need. If you’ve ever heard of medical tourism, it’s an extremely common and highly reputable service if you know quality companies and Esthetic Dent is one of them.

Nice and very affordablePatrick, Argentina, 13 11 21

Excellent free first consultation. He has a 3D X-ray machine-rare. I had dental implants. Dr Pelcman was so fast inserting the base I didn’t even know he was finished. Important to note: he is not only a dentist but also a periodontist. There is an orthodontist in his office. Free consultation. He owns a studio apartment nearby the office. Nice and very affordable.

Toothless spaces in the jawbone in order to replace missing dental pieces. They consist in the placement of titanium screws in the treatment with dental implants. The surgery is conducted under local anesthesia and is absolutely painless. This technique allows to replace a single dental piece or the complete dental arcade, as well as to retain mobile prostheses by means of dental implants. These prostheses can be placed immediately or in a second time procedure depending on the case and the type of implant used.

Dr. Kim takes the time to explain and show what is needed and how he would like to do each procedure. Would I recommend Dr. Kim. Yes, no problem. My mouth feels good. His hours are good and he is a smart person. Interesting to hear a person from Korea go from speaking to his assistants then switching to English speaking to me with a Korean accent. Would I go back? Yes without a question.
