Abstract

Endodontic failure caused by transportation, drilling, overfilling and failure to repair an injury apical sometimes lead to surgical therapy. With periapical surgery consisting of exposure of the apex, root resection and preparation of a cavity that is hermetically sealed, we will correct the defects earlier. The combination of this surgical technique with retrograde obturation gives excellent results with little chance of recurrence. There are several widely used retrofilling materials, such as: Diaket, gutta-percha, Super EBA, biocem, glass ionomer cements, mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), among which is the Super EBA cement retrofilling benefits provided by the seal in such preparations. A case of a patient with recurrent apical lesion and overfilling root system, describes the surgical technique of apicectomy and retrograde filling with bone graft as a better alternative for bone regeneration.
