Advanced Endodontic Surgery for Healthy Smiles

At Dr. Vamani’s Dental Clinic, we provide specialized Apicoectomy treatment in Hyderabad for patients who continue to experience infection or discomfort even after root canal therapy. This minor surgical procedure targets the tip of the tooth root (apex) to remove infected tissue and promote long-term healing, ensuring you keep your natural tooth rather than resorting to extraction.

What is an Apicoectomy?

An apicoectomy, also known as root-end surgery, is a microsurgical endodontic treatment performed when traditional root canal therapy alone is not sufficient. During the procedure, the dentist removes the inflamed or infected tissue along with the root tip and seals the end of the root canal to prevent reinfection.

When is an Apicoectomy Needed?

An apicoectomy may be recommended if you:

  • Have persistent infection or pain after root canal treatment

  • Experience cysts or lesions at the root tip

  • Have hidden root canal branches that could not be treated earlier

  • Wish to save a tooth that would otherwise require extraction

Benefits of Apicoectomy at Dr. Vamani’s Dental Clinic

  • Preserves your natural tooth structure

  • Eliminates infection and promotes long-term healing

  • Prevents the need for extraction and replacement options like implants

  • Relieves chronic pain or swelling

  • Restores normal chewing function and oral health

The Apicoectomy Procedure

  1. Local anesthesia is given to ensure a pain-free experience.

  2. A small incision is made near the affected tooth.

  3. Infected tissue and the root tip are carefully removed.

  4. The root end is sealed with a biocompatible material.

  5. The area is sutured and healing begins.

The procedure is minimally invasive, and most patients recover quickly with proper aftercare.

Aftercare & Recovery Tips

  • Apply cold compresses to reduce swelling in the first 24 hours.

  • Follow prescribed medications and antibiotics.

  • Avoid chewing hard foods near the treated tooth until fully healed.

  • Maintain good oral hygiene with gentle brushing and rinsing.
