What is the success rate for apicectomy? It seems to be a dicy treatment..

success rate depends on the amount of bone destruction around the apex and also on how best the roots are sealed

If the treatment is performed uner excellent isolation, with surgical precision and mainly the sealant at the root end is a material like mta or calcium hyroxide the prognosis is good
however periodic recall should be done

Now a days..the scenario of surgical endodontics has drastically
changed due to use of dental operating microscope and newer and better materials..

With the use of microsurgical instuments, ultrasonics and magnification, the
bone removal is minimum, retrograde cavity prepartion is better and thus
the prognosis is also improved.

Many case reports have been published in favour of MTA as retrograde filling material.
I have also used it in 4 cases and results are really satisfactory..
