Visitor asks:

Please also tell me what it means that there is a suspicion of an apical process at tooth 11. Thank you and kind regards.

Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:

Dear Sir/Madam!

Without a suspicion of an apical process, an apicoectomy or root canal treatment would not be necessary at all. The term itself means that bacteria have caused inflammation of the periodontal ligament at the root apex and the formation of granulation tissue at that site.

Have a nice day!
