What is a Root Canal Surgery (Apicoectomy)?
A root canal surgery, or apicoectomy, is a surgical procedure that is performed when a traditional root canal treatment fails. The procedure involves removing the tip of the root and the infected tissue surrounding it. The end of the root is then sealed to prevent any further infection. Root canal surgery is typically recommended when a tooth has a fracture, a blocked canal, or a damaged root tip.
