A Modern, Minimally Invasive Alternative

Unlike conventional root canals that rely primarily on mechanical files, the GentleWave® Procedure uses a combination of advanced fluid dynamics and sound waves to deeply cleanse the root canal system. This allows it to reach into even the tiniest crevices and complex anatomy within the tooth that traditional tools often miss. The GentleWave® Procedure offers a comfortable, minimally invasive experience with long-lasting results. At Endodontic Associates of Palo Alto, our team is fully trained and certified to provide this advanced treatment.

How It Works

GentleWave® uses a combination of fluid dynamics and sound waves to generate a vortex of disinfecting solution to clean the root canal system more thoroughly than traditional methods. This technology reaches deep into microscopic spaces that files can’t access—removing bacteria, infected tissue and debris in areas that files cannot reach. This allows for greater disinfection while preserving more of your natural tooth structure.

Key Benefits

Minimally Invasive: Preserves more of your tooth

Enhanced Cleaning: Reaches complex canal anatomy that traditional tools cannot

Less Discomfort: Patients typically report lower pain levels post-procedure

Is GentleWave® Right for You?

While the GentleWave® Procedure is suitable for many patients, it may not be appropriate in every case. Some individuals with complex or unusual tooth anatomy might not be candidates. A consultation with a certified GentleWave® provider at Endodontic Associates of Palo Alto is the best way to determine if the procedure is right for you.
