Why is it necessary to utilize lasers for root canal therapy?
The root canal system can be highly complex with a maze of large and little canals with extensions and connections. Studies have shown the traditional way of root canal treatment cannot reach every space inside the tooth. That is why highly infected teeth have a lower rate of success.
