Endodontic Retreatment
in Highland Park, Illinois

TREATMENT DESIGNED TO ADDRESS PREVIOUS ROOT CANAL ISSUES AND PRESERVE YOUR NATURAL TOOTH.

In some cases, a tooth that has already undergone root canal treatment may not heal as expected or symptoms can return over time. Endodontic retreatment allows us to reassess the tooth, identify the cause of the issue, and restore its health.

Led by Endodontist Dr. William Nudera, Root Canal Care Center provides precise, specialist retreatment using advanced imaging and modern techniques. The procedure involves carefully reopening the tooth, removing the previous treatment, cleaning and disinfecting the canals and resealing the tooth.

Our focus is always on preserving your natural tooth wherever possible. With accurate diagnosis and a conservative approach, retreatment can often relieve discomfort and restore long-term function without the need for extraction.

Your Endodontic Retreatment
Questions Answered

how do you know the tooth is infected or damaged?

what do i do if i don’t have any pain – do i still need treatment?

can the infection come back?

HOW DO YOU KNOW IF A TOOTH IS INFECTED OR DAMAGED?

To diagnose an infected tooth, we don’t rely on symptoms alone. We use X-rays, 3D imaging, and gentle diagnostic tests to evaluate the health of the nerve. This allows us to determine whether the tooth is healthy, inflamed, or infected and guide you toward the right treatment.

Do I Still Need Treatment if I Don’t Have Pain?

We don’t rely on symptoms alone. Using imaging, clinical examination and diagnostic testing, we carefully evaluate the health of your tooth and determine whether the nerve is healthy, inflamed or infected so we can recommend the right next step.

CAN INFECTION COME BACK AFTER TREATMENT?

While uncommon, reinfection can happen. If it does, there are further treatment options available to help preserve the tooth.

will the pain get worse if i delay the treatment?

How long will the tooth last?

how long can i wait before there’s a problem?

WILL THE PAIN GET WORSE IF I DELAY TREATMENT?

If a tooth is already damaged or infected, symptoms often become more frequent or more severe over time. Even if pain comes and goes, the underlying problem can continue to progress without treatment.

HOW LONG WILL THE TOOTH LAST?

With the right care, a treated tooth can last for many years. Long-term success depends on factors like restoration and oral hygiene.

HOW LONG CAN I WAIT BEFORE THERE’S A PROBLEM?

Every situation is different, but delaying treatment can allow the condition to worsen over time. Even without symptoms, issues can progress unexpectedly, which is why early evaluation is recommended whenever possible.

See What Our Patients have to say…

I was referred to this Endodontic Group through my primary dentist and I give this group a 5 star. They are very up front on their fees and they check with your dental insurance and they have no hidden fees. If you need a root canal make an appointment with them for a consultation and you will be glad you did because they are very reasonable and very nice. Thank you Dr Nudera and Dr Kim.
5* Review Michael C

When I asked my primary dentist who the most gentle and knowledgeable endodontist was, he immediately recommended Dr. Nudera and he was absolutely right. Dr. Nudera is incredibly talented and performed every procedure with precision and care, explaining each step along the way. He takes the time to listen, discuss options, and truly focuses on preserving your natural teeth. The staff is equally amazing, welcoming, helpful, and attentive throughout the entire experience. I would highly recommend Dr. Nudera to anyone, even if you have to travel—it’s worth it.
5* Review Alesya P

The dentists here are top notch!! I would not hesitant to have any of my family or friends to be treated by them. They are experts in the field and teach other dentists how to excel at doing root canals. They treat every patient like they are family and deliver outstanding care. Consider yourself lucky if you have to get a root canal by Dr. Nudera
