Apicoectomy is also known as root-end
resection and is a typically performed surgical endodontic procedure after a
root canal procedure is failed. The infected tissue inside the tooth is treated
by the root canal by removing the pulp and filling the tooth with gutta-percha,
a biocompatible material. Although it is usually successful, infected waste may
remain in the tooth canals and sometimes lead to future infections. A patient
whose tooth is re-infected by a root canal may suffer from gums pain or
tenderness, but there can be no symptoms in others. An ultrasound test is
usually used to discover the infection. The root tip called apex as well as the
infected tissue is removed by an apicoectomy to make sure the infection is
completely removed and the tooth is restored in a healthy state. The tip of the
root is where the blood vessels and nerves enter the tooth before going to the
pulp chamber through the canals. The tissue at the source of the problem is
removed from the root tip, which means that no infected tooth remains in the
tooth. Before this procedure, a physician may conduct a second root canal.

Apicoectomy is a straightforward,
minor operation that can save risky teeth in children and adults and prevent serious
complications. It is also known as apical operation, referring to the tooth
"apex," or "end." It's probably because although your tooth
already has a root canal, there are residual inflammations or infections in
your jawbone near the root tip,.
Here’s a breakdown of the procedure
itself:
• A local anaesthetic is given to
addict the area around the affected tooth before any work is done.
• Your dentist or endodontic dentist
will cut down through your gum and push your gum tissue to the root. Normally
only a few millimetres of the root as any infected tissue around the root is
removed.
• The root channel inside the tooth
is cleaned and screened with a small filling after the root tip is removed to
prevent further infection. Your dentist or endodontic may use another radiation
to make sure your tooth and jaw look good and there is no room to hold a new
infection.
• Then the tissue is sutured, so that
your gum may be healed and restored. At the end of the root, your jawbone will
also ultimately heal.
It usually takes 30 to 90 minutes for
an apicoectomy. The position of the tooth and the complexity of the root
structure may affect the time required to finish the operation. When the anaesthetic
is abrupt, you may experience a little discomfort and swelling. But in the next
days and within a day or two this will gradually decrease; you should be able
to start normal activities again. Your doctor may prescribe antibiotics for the
control or prevention of postoperative infection. For pain, anti-inflammatory drugs
should be sufficient, such as ibuprofen. In general, stitches will be removed
in a week. When the stitches are in place, you must be careful to brush and
flow near the site of your operation.
You may be further infected or
nerve-damaged on rare occasions. These complications are unlikely — and many
different types of dental procedures, not just apicoectomy, can be present. A
patient is normally protected by an apicoectomy from future infections. Healing Touristry takes
