Sometimes mere RCT is not enough to save an otherwise salvagable tooth.
This visual breakdown showcases the precision of an Apicoectomy combined with a Post-Core restoration. Here’s the “Socket Science” behind the success: 1. Infection Eradication: The infected root tip is resected, and the periapical granuloma is thoroughly debrided. 2. Retrograde Sealing: We seal the apex to prevent any bacterial micro-leakage from the canal system into the bone. 3. Structural Reinforcement: Once the biological foundation is cleared, we use a fiber post to distribute functional loads vertically, preventing root fractures. 4. Aesthetic Integration: Final restoration isn’t just about looks; it’s about mimicking the natural tooth’s biomechanics. Biological stability meets mechanical engineering. This is how we save “hopeless” teeth and ensure long-term clinical success.
