Surgical resection of the root tip: A Apicoectomy at Munich dentist may be considered for persistent inflammation around the root tip after root canal treatment when the tooth is otherwise restorable
This is approximately what a resected root tip looks like. If a root filling alone cannot resolve the problem at the root tip , for example because the terminal anatomy root contains numerous small lateral canals resembling a river delta that instruments cannot always reach, an apicoectomy may be considered. The procedure involves surgical access to the apical region, removal of inflamed tissue and a small part of the root tip, followed by suturing. Root anatomy varies greatly and small accessory canals may not be visible on two-dimensional radiographs.
In recent decades endodontics, the treatment of root canals, has improved considerably. Irrigation, interim medication, flexible instruments, electronic length measurement and magnification can help reduce bacterial load in the root-canal system and promote healing without surgery . Complex cases may require several visits and success cannot be guaranteed. Modern treatment may involve nickel-titanium instruments, electronic apex locators, torque-controlled motors, magnification or an operating microscope. Historical fees quoted by the former Munich practice are no longer a current offer and depended on the case and insurance system. historical cost per root canal (a molar may have three or more canals; front teeth and premolars have variable anatomy).
Fees for specialist endodontic treatment can vary considerably. Historical figures quoted on this page went up to per root canal. Even with advanced techniques, a tooth sometimes cannot be saved and must be extracted. Some people who have already undergone a lengthy Root canal treatment root canal treatment Immediate implantmay prefer, if the tooth is not restorable, extraction followed by replacement with a prosthesis or implant. The decision should balance prognosis, remaining tooth structure, periodontal condition, costs and patient preferences. A properly root-treated tooth with resolved infection is not in itself a threat to joints or heart valves; active dental infections, however, should be diagnosed and treated. Active dental infections can be relevant to general health , but not every root-treated tooth automatically represents an infectious focus.
