The surgical microscope helps visualize and magnify structures up to 25 times their actual size. This allows for observation and treatment of problems which cannot be seen with the naked eye. Dr. Siju Jacob is among a select group of clinicians who have been practicing microscopic endodontics since 2004. The main advantage of this procedure – unparalleled precision!
1) Minimally invasive. Removes less tooth structure.
2) Allows clinician to see and treat root canal anatomy that is not visible to the naked eye.
3) Increased precision and predictability of procedure.
4) Photographs of each step of the root canal treatment can be taken and e-mailed to the patient.

Our dental clinic is also equipped with an in-house cone beam CT machine. This additional 3-dimensional imaging tool can detect hidden anatomy and findings not visible in conventional x-rays. This further enhances the precision of your root canal treatment.
As a state-of-the-art dental clinic, we use digital dental radiography which minimizes x-ray radiation by 80%. Your radiographs (x-rays) are captured in a digital format and can be conveniently stored in your e-mail account. That’s right, no more carrying your x-ray films around.
Photographs of the procedure are e-mailed to the patient. Overseas patients can forward the work done to their family dentist back home. This ensures total transparency in the treatment done.
For our endodontic center, we follow CDC guidelines recommended by the American Dental Association. In addition, we have a single-use policy on all files, burs and needles used during the root canal procedure. When you walk into our clinic, you can leave sterilization worries outside.
We have all the devices necessary to deliver world-class endodontic services. More importantly, we also have the clinical skill to utilize technology effectively for the benefit of our patients.
Our goal is to make your experience as comfortable as possible. This includes providing you with a wide variety of music to choose from while you’re having your treatment done. If there’s anything in particular you’d like to listen to, just let us know in advance and we would be happy to play it for you. Our dental clinic also provides orthopedic pillows to support your neck and head.
