Saving Teeth with Apicoectomy
Have you ever encountered dental problems that required surgical intervention? This is where root resection of teeth or apicoectomy comes into play.
Root resection of teeth, also known as apicoectomy, is a surgical procedure that aims to treat periapical processes that form around the root tip of a tooth due to chronic inflammatory processes. The primary purpose of apicoectomy is to remove the focus of inflammation, such as a cyst or granuloma, from the root tip of the tooth.
When is Root Resection of Teeth Necessary?
Root resection of teeth may be required when conventional root canal treatment fails to completely cure the infection. If a cyst or granuloma forms around the root tip, an apicoectomy may be required to remove the inflammatory focus and prevent it from spreading.
Apical surgery procedure: Step-by-step
preparation: Before the procedure, the dentist will perform a thorough examination and x-rays to accurately determine the location of the inflammation.
Local Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is applied to the patient so that he/she does not feel any pain during the procedure.
Access to the Root Tip: The dentist reaches the root tip of the tooth by making a small incision in the gum.
Removing Infected Tissue: Using microscopic instruments, the dentist removes the infected tissue and cleans the root canal.
Closure and Stitching: After the root canal is cleaned, the gums are stitched and the healing process begins.
Advantages of Tooth Root Resection
Allows Preservation of the Tooth: Previously, such problems could lead to tooth extraction, but now the tooth can be preserved with root resection.
Minimally Invasive Procedure: Thanks to the use of a microscope and precision instruments, the procedure causes minimal damage to the tissues.
Preventing Complications: Removing infected tissue helps prevent the spread of infection.
