Frequently Asked Questions about Endodontics (Dr. Sofía Bóveda)
👩⚕️ About Dr. Sofía Bóveda Alasia
She is a certified dental surgeon with exclusive clinical practice in Microscopic Endodontics and Conservative Dentistry, registered with the Official College of Dentists of Catalonia (COEC No. 9409). Trained with the rigorous 3-year European Master's Degree in Endodontics at UIC Barcelona, she possesses extensive experience in saving natural teeth through advanced canal disinfection.

🦷 Root Canal Treatment & Pain Management
Root canal therapy involves removing inflamed, infected, or necrotic pulp tissue from inside the tooth, followed by thorough microscopic disinfection and a hermetic 3D seal. It is essential for treating severe tooth decay, irreversible pulpitis, cracked teeth, or periapical abscesses to preserve your natural smile and prevent tooth extraction.
No, modern endodontic treatment is completely pain-free thanks to advanced local anesthetic formulas (such as Articaine with epinephrine). For nervous patients or those experiencing dental phobia, Turó Park Dental Clinic also provides conscious sedation with Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas) to ensure total relaxation throughout the appointment.
🔬 Endodontic Retreatment & Bioceramic Technology
Retreatment is required when a previously treated tooth fails to heal or develops new bacterial infection due to narrow hidden canals, coronal leakage, or delayed restoration. Dr. Bóveda removes the previous filling material, thoroughly decontaminates the root system under magnification, and seals it anew to save the tooth.
Bioceramics and MTA (Mineral Trioxide Aggregate) are advanced biocompatible materials that form a chemical bond with dentin, offering exceptional antibacterial properties and promoting periapical bone regeneration in root perforations, open apices, and complex retreatments.
