Technology used
These product images are used where relevant, so patients can connect the technology to the actual service workflow.
SWEEPS is a Fotona laser-assisted irrigation approach used during selected root canal treatments. It creates photoacoustic streaming in the irrigating solution, helping fluid move through canal anatomy that can be difficult to reach with instruments alone.
The goal is to support the cleaning and disinfection phase of endodontic treatment while preserving tooth structure through careful diagnosis, conservative shaping, and final sealing.
Patients often arrive with toothache, swelling, biting pain, cracked teeth, trauma, deep cavities, or prior root canal concerns. Modern endodontics focuses on finding canal anatomy, disinfecting thoroughly, and protecting the tooth afterward.
Technology is selected only when it improves diagnosis, planning, precision, patient education, or comfort.
The exact cost depends on diagnosis, materials, number of visits, and whether related treatment is needed. Dental Arts can review insurance benefits, membership options, and financing before care starts.
SWEEPS is a Fotona laser-assisted irrigation concept used during endodontic care. It helps activate irrigating solutions inside the canal system so cleaning can reach complex anatomy more effectively.
No. It supports the modern root canal workflow. The dentist still diagnoses the tooth, isolates it, cleans and shapes the canals, irrigates, fills the canal space, and plans final protection.
Root canals can have curves, branches, and microscopic spaces. Better irrigation and disinfection support the goal of reducing bacteria before the canal is sealed.
Many back teeth need a crown or protective restoration after root canal therapy because the tooth may be weakened by decay, cracks, or large fillings.
