Apicoectomy · single root

Understanding your treatment

Root-end surgery may be considered for persistent problems around the tip of a previously treated root.

When is this evaluated? (सामान्य लक्षण)

These symptoms can have different causes and do not confirm that this treatment is needed. A dentist must examine the tooth and your oral health.

• Pain or swelling that continues after root canal treatment
• A recurring problem around a previously treated tooth
• A finding around the root on dental imaging

Is it right for you?

An examination and relevant imaging help determine whether surgery, retreatment or another option is appropriate.
