Abstract

Endodontic surgery is the method to treat apical periodontitis in previous root canal treatment failure that do not respond to non-surgical root canal retreatment. The author reported a case of 61 year-old woman with chronic apical abscess of right central maxillary incisor tooth after root canal treatment and post crown restoration. The radiograph showed a large periapical lesion. Endodontic surgery was obtained by apicoectomy and retrograde filling
with mineral trioxide aggregate. Two years postoperative follow-up found complete radiographic and clinical healing.
