Apicoectomy
Minor surgery removing the root tip to clear stubborn infection at the base.
Overview
An apicoectomy is a minor surgical procedure that removes the tip of a tooth's root and surrounding infected tissue when a standard root canal has not resolved the problem. It preserves the tooth and clears persistent infection near the root end.
What to expect
- A consultation and assessment to confirm apicoectomy is right for you.
- The procedure typically takes 1 visit.
- Most people need around 3–7 days to recover.
- Your dentist will explain aftercare and any follow-up visits.
