The apex of a tooth refers to the tip of the tooth's root, where the root canal opens into the surrounding bone. It is a crucial area for the tooth's blood supply and nerve connections, allowing for the nourishment and sensation of the tooth. In dental procedures, the apex may be a focus for treatments related to root canal therapy or apicoectomy when dealing with infections or other issues.
The apex of a tooth is the tip of the root where nerve and blood supply enter the tooth through the root canal. It is located at the bottom of the tooth, in the area where the tooth meets the jawbone.
