A comprehensive manual on surgical endodontics, specifically focusing on the procedure of apicectomy, which involves surgical intervention at the tooth's root apex. The content systematically covers the principles, indications, and operative techniques for apical surgery, emphasizing the need for a sound apical seal using methods like orthograde, retrograde, or combined sealing. Detailed chapters are dedicated to the practical aspects of the surgery, including anaesthesia, flap design (mid-level and envelope flaps), root-tip identification and resection, and wound management. Furthermore, the text addresses postoperative care, assessment of success or failure (often based on radiographic evidence), management of complications like fractured posts and perforations, and the critical periodontal considerations involved in preserving supporting tissues.
