An apicoectomy is a treatment sometimes referred to as “root end” or “root tip” treatment. If patients experience a failed root canal, we are often able to save the tooth by removing one of the root tips and extracting the decayed tissue.

Dental implants are an excellent tooth replacement option for many patients because they replace both the roots and crowns of lost teeth. Schedule an implant consultation to find out if this replacement option is right for you.
