RESUMO
Endodontic microsurgery in tandem with advanced radiographic techniques has led to the emergence of guided surgeries. Preservation of the cortical bone to enhance the healing and stabilization of tissues surrounding the tooth of concern can now be facilitated by bone cement used in the field of orthopedics. This case report details a guided endodontic surgery technique in 17 years old where a traumatic infliction leads to a phoenix abscess. The technique elaborated emphasizes on the three-dimensional printing of a surgical template with the help of cone-beam computed tomography, followed using a medical-grade bone cement in the most minimal manner to reposition the buccal cortical bone. A 12-month-old follow-up revealed the patient to be asymptomatic with a flawless periapical region radiographically. This case testifies that the optimum use of available biomedical material in surgical endodontics can assure a predictable prognosis.
