What is Apexogenesis?

Apexogenesis is a procedure that addresses the shortcomings involved with capping the inflamed dental pulp of an incompletely developed tooth. The goal of apexogenesis is the preservation of vital pulp tissue so that continued root development may occur and to minimize any further damage.

Do I Need Apexogenesis Performed?

If, during a comprehensive exam, your dentist finds incompletely developed teeth that require endodontic intervention (sometimes due to extensive cavities or traumatic injury), they'll perform an assessment of the pulp (the part in the center of a tooth made up of living connective tissue and cells). Then, the degree of tooth development will be determined to develop a treatment plan for long-term tooth retention.
