Overview of Mandibulectomy in Dogs. Mandibulectomy is a surgical procedure in which a portion of the lower jaw is removed. This can involve both sides of the jaw or just one side. Up to three-quarters of the entire lower jaw can be removed. Mandibulectomy is most commonly undertaken for the treatment of benign or malignant tumors affecting the lower jaw.
Dear John, If your dentist is recommending an apicoectomy, it means that your tooth cannot be successfully treated with conventional root canal treatment (which will be described below). An apicoectomy is a minor surgical procedure in which the very tip of the toothâs root is removed (âapicoâ â apex or end; âectomyâ â removal) and sealed. It is usually performed by an endodontist (âendoâ â inside; âdontâ â tooth), a dentist who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of tooth pain from root canal disease.
