At My Local Dentist, we provide specialised restorative and periodontal dental treatments designed to remove a damaged or infected tooth root while preserving the healthy portion of the tooth. Root amputation is a conservative dental procedure commonly used to save multi-rooted teeth affected by severe infection, bone loss, or structural damage.
Our experienced dental team focuses on personalised treatment planning and modern dental techniques to help restore oral function and maintain long-term dental health.
What Is Root Amputation?
Root amputation is a dental procedure involving the removal of one damaged root from a multi-rooted tooth, usually a molar, while preserving the remaining healthy tooth structure. The treatment is often recommended when infection, fracture, or bone loss affects only part of the tooth.
Root amputation may help treat:
Advanced periodontal disease
Root fractures
Severe root infection
Bone loss around a tooth root
Furcation involvement
Failed root canal treatment affecting one root
Preserving strategic teeth
The goal of treatment is to maintain the healthy portion of the tooth and avoid complete tooth extraction whenever possible.
