A member asked:
Can you tell me about apicectomy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Endodontist: You will need an Endodontist to explain the procedure. It needs to be done after root canal hasn't resolved problem. The procedure should be explained to you by your dentist or doctor and all of the expected risks and benefits. Bring a loved one with you to write down what you want to discuss and the options.
