Answered by Dr. Suhrab Singh

Root canal treatment and apicoectomy in some cases if lesion is big in size and cannot be resolved via non surgical method such as root canal treatment. Following root canal treatment usually finished in 2 visits in such cases, crown is placed after 4 to 5 days post completion of the second visit. 
Antiniotics may or may not be given depending upon your symptoms and assessment by the treating doctor

Answered by Dr. Gayathri Murugan

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

Answered by Dr. Soham Datta

Three treatments are available.
 1st one,  Nonsurgical root canal treatment.
pros: can save the tooth.
cons: mutiple time visit to clinic  at 7-10 days interval / 1-2 months interval (depending which kind of medication is given to resolve the infection by the dentist).so needs a lots of patience to save the tooth. 
If responding and infection start healing via radiograph then congratulations. if not responding after giving medication also (can happened) then Apicoectomy ( cutting the apical root part along with cleaning of the infection) is the option.
pros: can able to save the tooth still.
cons: cant able to done in all tooth specailly posterior due to accessibility issue. so the third option is Extraction and replacement.

I’m 32 years old male and have tooth gap in the front two teeth since years. Looking for the quick treatment without any harmful effects in longevity.

Male | 32

Hi
if you want a quick treatment you can go for tooth colored composite fillings or pircrksin veneer .
But bothe these treatments have to be redone after few years 
Long term treatment would be braces but more permanent.

If he is experiencing blurred vision, it could be due to several factors, including swelling, infection, or simply a reaction to the surgery. It's important to monitor any accompanying symptoms such as redness or increased pain. For now, ensure he keeps the area clean and follows any care instructions provided by your healthcare team. I recommend consulting a doctor to get a proper assessment and guidance, especially if symptoms persist. They can offer the best advice personalized for his situation.

why did a blister appear and a fat lip when i bit my lip?

Female | 21

As a result of the tissue injury when you bite your lip, blisters can develop. Besides, the region might even swell up to develop a fat lip. If after several days, the blister or swelling does not subside, and you have sustained consistent pain then it is advisable to see a dental specialist for diagnosis and treatment.
