Endodontic Surgery

In some cases, it may be necessary to remove the infected tooth root tips, damaged root surfaces, or apex and the nearby tissue. This surgical procedure is known as an apical surgery or an apicoectomy is performed to save damaged teeth. During this endodontic surgery, the area around the apex of the tooth that is infected is cleaned, and the tip of the root is resected and sealed. Sutures are placed and an ice pack is applied. Pain medication is prescribed to help alleviate any pain or discomfort following the endodontic treatment, and it is best to plan to rest for the remainder of the day. Most patients will have some minor swelling and occasional bruising with some numbness.
