Root canal treatment under the microscope when the case needs it, and re-treatment when a tooth that had a root canal hurts or swells again.
The check-up is 800 EGP.
When decay or a crack has reached the nerve, and the tooth can still be saved.
The inflamed nerve is cleaned out of the canals, and the canals are sealed, so the pain can settle and you can keep the tooth. We work under the microscope when the tooth needs it, because it shows canals the naked eye cannot see. The price depends on the tooth and is set from the X-ray.
For a tooth that had a root canal before and hurts or swells again.

Often, yes. In a root canal re-treatment the old filling is removed from the canals, which are cleaned again under the microscope and sealed. The doctor tells you from the X-ray whether the tooth can be saved.
The doctor examines the tooth, takes an X-ray and tells you what it needs and what it costs before starting.
The check-up is 800 EGP, at any of our three branches.
