3D Models of Apical Periodontitis
Apical Periodontitis is an inflammation of the periapical tissues located at the apex of a tooth’s root, often caused by bacterial infection from deep caries or trauma. This condition leads to symptoms like pain, tenderness when biting, and sensitivity to percussion. If left untreated, it can cause bone resorption around the root, eventually forming abscesses or cysts. Treatment typically involves root canal therapy to eliminate the infection and save the tooth.
