A permanent tooth, most often a canine, can stay trapped beneath the gum or bone, crowding neighbors or damaging roots. Learn how an oral surgeon approaches an impacted tooth.
When infection at the root tip returns after a root canal, a minor surgical procedure called an apicoectomy, or root-end surgery, can often save the tooth.
