After an apicoectomy, it's important to follow your dentist's instructions exactly. You may experience some mild swelling and discomfort after the procedure, but you can promote the healing process by using an ice pack and taking over-the-counter pain medication. Avoid chewing on the side of the treated area until it fully heals. You can still brush and floss as normal, but be gentle on the side that underwent the apicoectomy.
