Advances in Root Canal Treatment: An Interview with Dr. Nadia Liss

Introduction

Root canal therapy has come a long way in recent years, transforming from a procedure many patients feared into one that is efficient, comfortable, and long-lasting. On The Wonder Tooth Podcast, Dr. Radwa Saad, Princeton cosmetic dentist, sat down with Dr. Nadia Liss, endodontist and founder of Hamilton Endodontics, to discuss the exciting advances in root canal treatment that are changing patient care.

The Role of Digital Dentistry and 3D Imaging

“Digital dentistry has completely changed how we diagnose and plan root canals,” explains Dr. Liss. “With 3D imaging, we can see every detail of the tooth, allowing us to treat infection with precision and accuracy.”

This technology reduces guesswork and ensures patients at Dent Blanche Dental receive the highest standard of dental care.

Rotary Instruments vs. Traditional Hand Files

Traditional hand files were once the standard, but rotary instruments now provide faster and more accurate results.

“Rotary instruments shorten treatment time and make the procedure smoother for both patients and dentists,” says Dr. Liss.

This means less time in the dental office and a more comfortable experience for patients.

Microscopes and Ultrasonic Tools for Thorough Cleaning

Modern Princeton dentistry also relies on dental microscopes and ultrasonic tools.

“Microscopes allow us to see even the tiniest canals, while ultrasonic instruments ensure thorough cleaning,” Dr. Liss notes.

These tools significantly improve the success rate of root canal therapy.

Same-Day Crowns with CAD/CAM Technology

“One of the biggest advances for patients is same-day crowns,” explains Dr. Saad. “With CAD/CAM technology, we can restore the tooth immediately after the root canal, eliminating the need for multiple visits.”

This approach not only saves time but also strengthens and protects the treated tooth right away.

Improved Materials for Long-Lasting Results

Root canals now last longer thanks to improved materials.

“We use biocompatible filling materials and advanced bonding techniques that provide durability and comfort,” Dr. Liss shares.

With proper dental care, a root canal can last a lifetime.

Reducing Anxiety and Improving Healing

Many patients still fear root canals, but modern dentistry has made the process far less intimidating.

“Patient anxiety drops dramatically once they realize how quick and painless the procedure is today,” Dr. Liss emphasizes.

Faster healing, minimal discomfort, and predictable results help patients feel confident about their dental care.
