Traumatic Injuries
Traumatic Injuries
Preserving your natural tooth is always our top priority. Occasionally, however, a standard root canal isn’t enough to completely heal a damaged tooth. In those cases, a specialized type of endodontic surgery called an Apicoectomy may be the best option.
At Endodontics Limited in Miami, Dr. Gomez and Dr. Barros provide advanced apicoectomy procedures designed to save teeth that might otherwise require extraction, helping you keep your smile healthy and intact.
What is an Traumatic Injuries?
A root canal generally suffices to save a tooth with injured pulp. Sometimes, though, residual infection, hidden canals or micro‑fractures can persist after non‑surgical treatment. An apicoectomy—also known as a root‑end resection—targets these issues directly.
How an apicoectomy works
This minor surgical procedure allows us to save a tooth that hasn’t responded fully to a root canal, avoiding extraction and preserving your natural smile. If you’d like to learn more about apicoectomy or explore our full range of root canal therapy services, contact Dr. Gomez and Dr. Barros at Endodontics Limited. We’re here to help you maintain a healthy, complete smile.
- We make a small incision in the gum tissue near the affected tooth to expose the underlying bone.
- The inflamed or infected tissue is carefully removed, along with the very tip of the tooth’s root.
- A tiny filling material is placed to seal the end of the root and prevent future infection.
- The gum is sutured back in place; over the next few months, the bone naturally heals around the area.
