Yes. Our Mount Dora office can redo a root canal that failed, for people from Tavares, Eustis, and Leesburg. 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 Mount Dora choose this office
When a previously treated tooth flares up again, our Mount Dora specialists use 3D CBCT imaging to find what the first treatment missed. This matters for patients in Tavares, Lady Lake, and the wider Lake 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 Mount Dora office
We are located on US Highway 441 in Mount Dora, Suite 104, in the same building as Massage Envy, directly across from the Lowe's and Publix Shopping Center at Loch Leven Landing. The building is highly visible from US-441.

Patient stories
What patients say about our Mount Dora office
Great experience! Not used to saying that after visiting the dentist but it's the truth. Latest technology root canal experience was quick and reasonably easy!!
Bill C. Mount Dora · via Google
I went in to see if there was any hope of a root canal on a fractured tooth. The Dr was very up front with me and the likely hood of a 50/50 chance of it not working. I appreciated the honest approach.
Tim G. Mount Dora · via Google
Samantha was super sweet at the front desk. Getting a root canal is not something anyone looks forward but everyone including the doctor was super nice at the first visit and understanding.

Other services at our Mount Dora 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
