Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Surgical Endodontics
  • Microsurgery

Background:

  • The surgical operating microscope has revealed limitations in traditional endodontic surgery techniques.
  • Advancements in microsurgical instruments and biocompatible root-end filling materials have emerged.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the components, key concepts, and procedural steps of endodontic microsurgery.
  • To discuss the prognosis and predictability of modern root-end filling procedures.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current literature on endodontic microsurgery.
  • Analysis of minimally invasive techniques in surgical endodontics.

Main Results:

  • Endodontic microsurgery is a minimally invasive technique.
  • It leads to reduced postoperative pain, edema, and accelerated wound healing.
  • Microsurgery demonstrates a significantly higher success rate compared to traditional apical surgery.

Conclusions:

  • Endodontic microsurgery represents a significant advancement in the field.
  • This approach offers improved patient outcomes and higher predictability in root-end procedures.
