Apicoectomy at Santa Ana Dental Specialists

Advanced Surgical Precision for Endodontic Health. Apicoectomy, also known as root-end surgery, is a specialized endodontic procedure offered at Santa Ana Dental Specialists. This surgical treatment is typically recommended when conventional root canal therapy cannot fully resolve an infection in the tooth's root.

Apicoectomy is aimed at removing the infection and preserving the natural tooth, particularly in cases where root canal retreatment is not viable or has been unsuccessful.

Targeting Root Infections with Surgical Expertise

A Focused Approach to Endodontic Challenges
During an apicoectomy, our skilled endodontists surgically access the tip of the tooth's root to remove any infected tissue along with the last few millimeters of the root itself. This procedure is essential for eliminating persistent infections that are harboring at the root end and are inaccessible through traditional root canal treatment. By precisely targeting and removing the source of infection, an apicoectomy can effectively salvage a tooth that might otherwise need to be extracted.

Utilizing Advanced Techniques for Optimal Outcomes
At Santa Ana Dental Specialists, we employ the latest surgical techniques and technologies to perform apicoectomies. This includes using microsurgical methods and advanced imaging for enhanced precision and minimal invasiveness. Our approach ensures a high success rate for the procedure, with reduced postoperative discomfort and a quicker healing process compared to traditional methods.
