Improving Aesthetic Results in Endodontic Surgery: Key Techniques from Flap Design to Suture

Endodontic surgery has seen remarkable improvements in clinical and radiographic outcomes thanks to the development of advanced microsurgical techniques and instruments. However, while these procedures effectively address apical lesions, they can sometimes lead to unintended soft tissue issues such as recession, papilla loss, and scarring. As aesthetics become increasingly important in patient care, achieving optimal hard tissue results is no longer enough; successful soft tissue management is equally critical to ensure a satisfying outcome.
In this presentation, Dr. Wohlgemuth, will guide you through pre-operative assessment and critical steps of endodontic surgery with a focus on enhancing aesthetic outcomes. The lecture will cover incision design, flap management, and the selection of suture size, type, and technique. Through a series of clinical cases, Dr. Wohlgemuth will illustrate how mastering these techniques can significantly improve the aesthetic results of your endodontic surgeries.
