Yes. Our Lake Nona office can redo a root canal that failed, for people from Narcoossee, Medical City, and St. Cloud. We reopen the tooth, take out the old filling, clean the canals, and seal them again. In one study of over 4,700 redone teeth, 9 in 10 were still in place after five years (Salehrabi and Rotstein, 2010).

What happens during root canal retreatment
Root canal retreatment is the second look a tooth gets when an earlier treatment did not fully settle it. Your endodontist works under a surgical microscope with 3D CBCT imaging, looking for the cause: an extra canal, a hidden crack, or a seal that broke down. Your natural tooth stays in place.
Why patients near Lake Nona choose this office
When a previously treated tooth flares up again, our Lake Nona specialists use 3D CBCT imaging to find what the first treatment missed. This matters for patients in Narcoossee, St. Cloud, and the wider Orange County area who want to keep a natural tooth rather than replace it. We share findings directly with your referring dentist so the follow-up restoration stays on track.
Getting to our Lake Nona office
We are located on Wellness Way in Lake Nona's medical and wellness corridor, near the UCF Lake Nona Hospital and the Lake Nona Performance Club. This is the heart of Lake Nona Medical City: easy access from SR-417 and SR-528, and under 10 minutes from Orlando International Airport.

Other services at our Lake Nona office
Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy is how a tooth with an infected nerve is saved instead of pulled. Your endodontist treats it under a surgical microscope with 3D CBCT imaging and rubber dam isolation, seeing every canal clearly. Your dentist can refer you, or you can call any of our offices directly. Learn more →
Emergency Root Canal Treatment
Emergency root canal treatment means being seen today rather than waiting days for an appointment. Call your nearest office, and an endodontic specialist will numb the tooth, find the source of the ache, and treat it in one visit. Most patients feel steady relief within 24 to 48 hours. Learn more →
Apicoectomy (Periapical Surgery)
An apicoectomy is the option that keeps a treated tooth in place when infection at the root has not cleared. Your endodontist plans it from a 3D CBCT scan and works under a surgical microscope. You feel pressure but no pain under local anesthesia, and you are home resting within a couple of hours. Learn more →
Dental Trauma Treatment
Same-day care for knocked-out teeth, root fractures, and dental injuries. We work fast because every minute matters, especially for avulsed teeth. Learn more →
3D CBCT Imaging in Endodontics
3D CBCT imaging happens during your appointment, without a separate visit and with no preparation on your part. You are positioned in the scanner, and it spins around your head. There is no tunnel, and the scan is done in seconds. Your endodontist then reviews the images with you before treatment begins. Learn more →Root Canal Retreatment at other MFE locations

Common questions
Do you offer root canal retreatment in Lake Nona?
Yes. Our Lake Nona specialists handle retreatment when a previously treated tooth becomes painful or infected again. We use 3D CBCT imaging to find the cause and reseal the tooth, helping patients across Orange County keep their natural tooth.
Will retreatment at the Lake Nona office take more than one visit?
Retreatment takes one or two visits. Some teeth need medicine placed between visits so the infection can calm down. We open at 7:45 in the morning on weekdays, which can make it easier to plan both visits.
What should I bring to my retreatment appointment?
Bring your insurance card and a list of the medicines you take. If you have records or X-rays from your first root canal, bring those too. They help our Lake Nona team see what was done before your retreatment.
