Best Endodontist in Seoul - Root Canal 

When Is Root Canal Treatment Needed?

Root canal treatment is necessary when the pulp inside the tooth becomes infected or inflamed. This can happen due to:

  1. Deep cavities
  2. Cracked or broken teeth
  3. Repeated dental procedures on the same tooth
  4. Trauma or injury

Symptoms that may indicate the need for a root canal include severe tooth pain, lingering sensitivity, swelling, or darkening of the tooth.


Why Is Root Canal Treatment More Affordable in Korea?

  1. Clinics in Korea use in-house digital imaging and CT scans, reducing diagnostic costs.
  2. Efficient scheduling and high patient volume allow for lower per-patient fees.
  3. Many dentists in Korea are trained in microsurgical techniques using state-of-the-art endodontic tools.
  4. Clinics use automated rotary instruments and apex locators to reduce treatment time and cost.
  5. Transparent flat-rate pricing is common, especially for international patients.
