Healing After Endodontic Microsurgery Using a Rotary Bur Versus Piezoelectric Unit for Osteotomy and Root Resection
Sponsor: National and Kapodistrian University of Athens
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare bone healing after using apical tooth microsurgery to remove root end infection, either by use of rotary burs for cutting bone and root end, or by use of piezoelectric surgery for the same procedures. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is there a difference in bone healing and reformation between the two surgical procedures ? * Is there a difference in bone healing between cutting the bone with a rotary bur and cutting the bone with the 'bone window' technique that uses piezoelectric unit ?
Official title: Prospective Healing Assessment After Application of Endodontic Microsurgery for Elimination of Apical Pathology By Use of Either a Rotary Bur for Osteotomy and Apical Root Resection, or Piezoelectric Unit for the Same Clinical Procedures
