An apicoectomy is a dental microsurgery that consists of removing the tip of a tooth's root (the apex) along with the infected tissue around it, while preserving the tooth.
When is it indicated? It is usually considered when an infection persists in the root despite a previous root canal treatment, as a last option to save the tooth before considering extraction.
What to expect? The gum is worked on to access the root, the end is sealed, and the area is closed; care and healing instructions are given afterward.
Which specialist performs it? It is performed by the maxillofacial surgeon or the dentist with training in endodontics. You should discuss with a dentist whether your case is a candidate for this procedure.

Before you book
- Every licensed doctor in Mexico holds a cédula profesional, a national licence number. It appears on our doctor profiles where we have it, and you can verify it yourself against the federal registry.
- Ask exactly what a quoted price covers. Consultation, imaging, anaesthesia, materials and follow-up visits are often quoted separately.
- Ask who handles follow-up once you are home, and what happens if something needs correcting. For treatment that spans several visits, agree the schedule before you travel.
El Doctor is a directory. We do not provide medical care, take bookings, or receive payment from the providers listed.
