Endodontic microsurgery.
The field of endodontics has seen vast improvements in technology and techniques over the past several years. Perhaps the one area of endodontics that has improved the most is the way in which surgery is performed. With the use of state-of-the-art instruments, new and improved materials, and a surgical operating microscope, the gap has narrowed between biological concepts and the ability to achieve consistently successful clinical results. The practice of these techniques is now referred to as endodontic microsurgery.
