Cleaning the most profound, intricate areas of the root canal system requires advanced techniques, which we are happy to provide with the GentleWave Procedure at Prime Endodontics.

The GentleWave Procedure is a cutting-edge alternative to traditional root canal therapy. The GentleWave Procedure's ultra-cleaning technique is an innovative blend of fluid dynamics and a wide range of sound waves that penetrate tiny spaces and remove bacteria, debris, and tissue. The GentleWave Procedure cleans and disinfects the root canal system so thoroughly that there is a reduced possibility of failure over time.

The GentleWave Procedure accesses the affected root canal system using a minimally invasive approach, which means it preserves more of the original tooth and helps keep its structure strong. 

What Distinguishes GentleWave from Traditional Root Canal Treatment?

The GentleWave Procedure has the following advantages over traditional root canal therapy:

• The protocol is as minimally intrusive as possible
• The procedure fluids permeate the entire root canal system
• Removes bacteria, debris, and infected tissue with ease
• The tooth's original structure and integrity are preserved
• Typically, just one appointment is required

The Benefits of GentleWave Procedure

Minimally Invasive

The GentleWave Procedure replaces much of the manual instrumentation in RCT with tailored procedure fluids, preventing excess tooth structure removal for maintaining natural functionality and structural integrity.

Advanced Cleaning Efficiency

The high-tech fluid distribution device used in the GentleWave Procedure delivers fluids throughout your root canal system, eradicating infection while conserving vital tooth tissue.

One-Time Procedure

A GentleWave Procedure can be completed in only one appointment. And, because GentleWave Technology is so effective at cleaning the root canal system, there is a reduced possibility of root canal retreatment being required later.

How Does the GentleWave Root Canal Work?

GentleWave root canal therapy employs sound waves and fluids to reach deep into a tooth's canals efficiently. This system can clean out germs, diseased debris, and inflamed pulp that other methods cannot get by going into the smallest crevices of the tooth.

The GentleWave method creates a vortex of treatment fluids that swirl around the inside of the tooth to provide deeper cleaning and disinfection of the root canals. These fast-moving fluids can clean and debride regions that regular files cannot reach, such as additional canals or small apertures. GentleWaves' patented technology is not used by any other cleaning system, making it unique among root canal treatment choices in the endodontic sector.
