ABSTRACT
The apical resection in
endodontic surgery is often associated with adverse
events. Different surgical techniques have been used
for this kind of surgery.
Endodontic therapy includes: primary, secondary
treatment, and periradicular surgery, which is usually
used when teeth can be saved.
Periapical surgery is considered the treatment of
choice to save a tooth with apical pathology that
cannot be managed with conventional, nonsurgical
endodontics.
In our study, we are aimed . to present an overview
of the surgical management of recurrent periapical
pathologies associated with a non-vital tooth with
piezosurgery and to investigate the operative and
postoperative outcome differences in patients
undergoing piezosurgery and conventional rotary
techniques.
