What are the treatments available for chronic apical periodontitis?
Answered on 23rd May '24
Chronic apical periodontitis is a condition in which the apical portion of a tooth's root is chronically inflamed. The term chronic means the problem must have been present for a long period of time
Treatment options are root canal treatment either in a single visit or in two visits.
If the infection persist we can go in for apicoectomy
