When is endodontic surgery necessary, and what does it involve?

Endodontic surgery is needed when a root canal doesn’t heal properly or an infection remains. It involves accessing the root tip through the gum to remove infected tissue and save the tooth.

What is apexification, and when would my tooth need this procedure?

Apexification is a procedure for teeth with an open root, usually in young patients. It helps the tooth heal and develop a proper root when there’s infection or underdevelopment.

How can I determine if I need a root canal treatment or retreatment?

If you have persistent pain, sensitivity, or swelling, you may need a root canal. If you’ve had one before and experience new pain, you might need retreatment.

How long does it take to recover after a root canal treatment?

Recovery is usually quick, with mild discomfort for a few days. Most patients return to normal activities the next day.

What is conscious oral sedation, and how does it help with my anxiety during procedures?

Conscious oral sedation uses a pill to relax you during the procedure. You stay awake but feel calm and less anxious.

How do apicoectomies help save a damaged tooth?

Apicoectomies remove infected tissue at the tip of the root, saving the tooth if a root canal isn’t enough to fix the problem.
