Tooth root resection : saving teeth with apicectomy
Have you ever encountered dental problems that require surgery? This is where root resection, or apicectomy, comes to the rescue.
What is a tooth resection?
Tooth resection, also known as apicectomy, is a surgical procedure aimed at treating periapical processes that form around the tip of the tooth root due to a chronic inflammatory process. The main goal of an apicectomy is to remove a focus of inflammation, such as a cyst or granuloma, through the tip of the tooth root.
When is resection required?
Root resection may be required in cases where traditional root canal treatment does not lead to a complete cure of the infection. If a cyst or granuloma forms around the tip of the root, an apicectomy may be necessary to remove this focus of inflammation and prevent its spread.
The process of apicectomy: Step by step
Preparation: Before the procedure, the doctor conducts a comprehensive examination and X-ray to accurately determine the location of the inflammation.
Local anesthesia: The patient is given local anesthesia to eliminate pain during the procedure.
Access to the tip of the root: The doctor makes a small incision in the gum to gain access to the tip of the root.
Removal of infected tissue: Using microscopic instruments, the doctor removes the infected tissue and cleanses the root canal.
Closure and suture: After cleansing the root canal, the gum is sewn, and the healing process begins.
Advantages of resection
Allows you to save the tooth: Previously, such problems could lead to removal, but now resection of the root allows you to save it.
Low-trauma procedure: Due to the use of microscopes and thin instruments, the procedure is not traumatic to the tissues.
Prevention of complications: Removal of infected tissue helps to avoid further spread of infection.
