Apecectomy is carried out to save the tooth in cases where root filling is unsuccessful or impossible. Initially an Xray is taken to view the infected apex.

1. Scalpal - initial incision into the gum

2. Periosteal elevator - to raise the flap of the gum

3. Straight handpiece and bur - cut into the bone to expose the infected apex

Now the apex is cut off

4. Mitchells Trimmer - to scrap out the infected tissue

Now the Root Canal Filling is checked and if necessary additional filling material is inserted usually GIC or ZOE (Retrograde Root Filling)

5. Suture Needle and Silk

6. Needle Holder or Spenser Wells Forceps

What information can you provide about a drum setup diagram?

A drum setup diagram is a visual representation of how drums and cymbals are arranged for a particular drummer's setup. It typically shows the placement of each drum, cymbal, and other percussion instruments in relation to the drummer's seating position. This diagram helps drummers remember their setup and can be useful for sharing information with other musicians or sound engineers.
