We recommend confirming your coverage so you can make informed decisions about your care.
You may need endodontic surgery if you have ongoing tooth pain, swelling, or an infection that persists after root canal treatment. In some cases, surgery may also help identify hidden fractures or address problems around the root of a tooth. If you're experiencing these symptoms, visiting Tend Dental in NYC for an evaluation can help you better understand what's causing your discomfort and what treatment options may be available.
Endodontic surgery is typically performed using local anesthesia to numb the treatment area and help keep you comfortable. You may experience mild soreness or swelling afterward, but these symptoms are generally manageable with appropriate aftercare. At Tend Dental in New York City, your comfort is a priority, and your dental team will explain what to expect before and after your procedure.
An endodontist specializes in diagnosing tooth pain and treating problems involving the soft tissue inside your teeth, known as the pulp. At Tend Dental in New York City, endodontic care focuses on helping preserve your natural teeth whenever possible. Depending on your needs, treatment may involve root canal therapy, retreatment, or endodontic surgery to address persistent infections or damage around a tooth's roots.
An apicoectomy is a type of endodontic surgery designed to help preserve a natural tooth when an infection or inflammation remains near the root tip. During the procedure, an endodontist removes the affected root tip and surrounding damaged tissue, then seals the root as needed. This treatment may help you avoid tooth extraction, although the outcome depends on your individual dental health.
A root canal treats infection or inflammation inside your tooth by removing damaged tissue, cleaning the canals, and sealing them. Endodontic surgery addresses problems that may not be resolved through conventional root canal treatment alone. For example, an apicoectomy involves removing the tip of a tooth's root and surrounding infected tissue. Your Tend dental team can help explain which treatment options may be appropriate based on your evaluation.
