Is GentleWave Better Than A Traditional Root Canal?

When it comes to saving natural teeth, endodontists are always on the lookout for new technology and techniques to make procedures less painful, more efficient, and more likely to provide long-term successful treatment. The Phoenix Endodontic Group has recently added the new GentleWave G4 system for root canals.

GentleWave takes a substantially different approach to root canal treatment, using multisonic vibration and fluid dynamics to cleanse and reshape even the most unusual and complex tooth root systems. We are excited to be one of only two practices in Arizona to be employing this technology.

Here’s a quick overview of how GentleWave differs from a traditional root canal and why these differences add up to a better overall experience.

GentleWave® G4 System

Advantages Of The GentleWave System During Root Canal Treatment 

  1. GentleWave is minimally invasive. The most impactful difference is the GentleWave system requires endodontists take far less time using files to clean and reshape canals.  
  2. GentleWave uses fluid dynamics to clean away infection. The irrigating fluid used in the GentleWave system passes through a narrow opening on the instrument used by the endodontist, creating a cascade of tiny imploding vapor bubbles. These mini-explosions create shockwaves that separate bacteria, biofilm, and debris from the tooth.  
  3.  GentleWave’s reliance on fluid movement allows it to clean even challenging root canals. The system leverages the power of the irrigating fluid’s journey through the tooth to remove more than 98 percent of bio-film and organic tissue, even in canals the endodontist has not previously been able to detect!  
  4. GentleWave procedures result in less post-procedure discomfort. More than 96 percent of patients treated with GentleWave report little or no pain 48 hours after the procedure.
  5. The GentleWave system can reduce treatment time for patients. Many patients treated with GentleWave can be done with their root canal treatment in a single session.

“GentleWave, in my experience and that of other endodontists, is proving to be a game-changer in terms of saving natural teeth,” says Dr. Jacqueline S. Allen of the Phoenix Endodontic Group. “Our staff is happy to explain how GentleWave works and discuss whether it is an option for your specific treatment.”

Introducing the GentleWave® System Root Canal Treatment Now Available in Phoenix Office

Through Innovative Technology, Phoenix Endodontic Group to Provide Patients with a Simpler and Less Invasive Option for Root Canal Therapy

Phoenix Endodontic Group, a leading endodontic practice in Phoenix, AZ., announced today its partnership with Sonendo, Inc., a leading dental technology company, to offer the revolutionary GentleWave® System with CleanFlow™ Technology, a less invasive and less painful alternative to traditional root canal therapy.

The GentleWave Procedure has redefined standard root canal treatment with a minimally invasive process that preserves tooth structure and promotes early healing. With a goal to save patients’ natural teeth, the system is designed to treat tooth decay by cleaning and disinfecting the microscopic spaces within teeth without the need to remove tooth structure. And with the addition of the CleanFlow procedure instrument, the GentleWave System now offers an even better patient experience and simpler workflow. According to an ongoing clinical trial sponsored by Sonendo, 99.5% of patients had no pain during a root canal procedure utilizing the GentleWave System with the addition of CleanFlow Technology.

“We are thrilled to introduce the GentleWave System with CleanFlow Technology into our practice and are confident that this marks an important milestone in the transformation of traditional root canal treatment,” said Dr. Jacqueline Allen. “We wholeheartedly support this trusted technology, which allows our patients to experience less pain and heightened comfort.”

The GentleWave System uses advanced fluid dynamics, broad-spectrum acoustic energy and accelerated chemistry to deliver an alternative to conventional root canal therapy – a procedure that is traditionally performed with a series of files used to scrape the inside of the tooth, often causing post-operative pain and discomfort for patients and requiring multiple visits to the doctor. With the GentleWave System, patients experience significantly less pain overall and more than 90% of procedures can be completed in a single visit.

“Our goal is to revolutionize the standard of care for root canal therapy. As more doctors use the GentleWave System, more patients can experience less invasive treatment,” said Joanne Lindberg, Vice President of Sales with Sonendo. “We are thrilled to see Phoenix Endodontic Group remaining at the forefront of embracing innovative technology, thereby enabling an enhanced patient experience and streamlined workflow.”
