When to Refer to Specialist Endodontics
Dr. Nathani accepts referrals for the full spectrum of endodontic needs, with particular expertise in highly complex cases (Complexity Codes 2 and 3).
Primary Referral Indications:
Endodontic Retreatment:
- Failed previous root canal treatment
- Persistent infection after primary treatment
- Separated instrument retrieval
- Complex canal negotiation
- Previous missed canals requiring location and treatment
Anatomical Complexity:
- Severely calcified root canals
- Complex root morphology (C-shaped canals, variant anatomy)
- Difficult access requiring 3D navigation
- Dilacerated or severely curved roots
- Cases requiring NaviDent Dynamic Navigation technology
Pathology and Trauma:
- Internal and external root resorption
- External cervical resorption (ECR)
- Complex dental trauma
- Root fractures requiring specialized assessment
- Cemental tears
Restorative Complexity – The DME Advantage:
- Deep sub-gingival margins (below gumline)
- Cases requiring Deep Margin Elevation (DME)
- Teeth with deep decay or fractures previously deemed “unrestorable”
- Alternative to crown lengthening surgery
- Complex isolation requirements for bonded restorations
