Endodontic Surgery - Causes and Risk Factors

If the affected root or tooth is deemed to be beyond surgical repair or treatment, it may be extracted during the same surgery.
If the affected tooth and area is in close proximity to important anatomical structures, there may be a minor risk for complications such as sinus floor perforations or nerve damage.
Other risks include potential infection, side effects to the medications used or the general/local anaesthetic used.
