The Serio Dental Endodontic Surgery – Apicectomy

While most root canal treatments are successful, there are instances where infection might persist, especially in complex root structures. Reasons can include:

1. Blocked or inaccessible root canals.
2. Small branches at the side of the main canal that may remain infected.
3. Failed prior root canal treatment.

The procedure involves:

1. Administering a local anesthetic.
2. Making a small incision in the gum to expose the root.
3. Removing the infected tissue and the root tip.
4. Sealing the end of the root canal.
5. Stitching the gum tissue back in place.

At Serio Dental, our priority is your comfort. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring that you remain pain-free during the surgery. Post-surgical discomfort is minimal and can usually be managed with over-the-counter painkillers.

With expert hands and state-of-the-art equipment, apicectomies performed at Serio Dental have a high success rate, providing patients with relief and preserving the natural tooth structure.

Post-operative instructions include:

1. Avoiding rigorous rinsing for the first 24 hours.
2. Consuming soft foods and avoiding chewing on the treated side.
3. Following any prescribed medication regimen.
4. Reporting any unusual symptoms or prolonged pain to our clinic.
