Background Periapical endodontic surgery (PES) for root amputation and tooth replacement by immediate implant placement are two possible treatment options for bone lesions in the root apex of a tooth that has previously undergone endodontic treatment. Treatment methods are performed when the effectiveness of orthograde canal revision is questionable or when such treatment cannot be performed. The effectiveness of these methods varies from study to study. Objective clinical evaluation of the efficacy of periapical endodontic surgery for root amputation and immediate implant placement with simultaneous tooth extraction in the proximate and long-term treatment. Materials and methods The study included 183 patients between the ages of 24 and 63. Patients were divided into 2 groups; group Ⅰ - endodontic surgery was performed to resect the apex of the tooth root (108 patients) and group Ⅱ - an operation to install an implant with simultaneous tooth extraction (75 patients). In group Ⅰ, in 36 cases, PES was performed in the area of the first molars and premolars, and 72 cases in the area of incisors and canines. In group Ⅱ, 75 patients received 231 implants. Results In all 108 patients of group Ⅰ in the postoperative period and within 1 month, the wounds healed without complications. In none of the 36 operated premolars and molars, there was no definitive elimination of the radiographic bone loss (Rude grade 2 and 3) after 12 months. In the area of incisors and canines, complete healing was observed only in 37.5% of cases (Ⅰ class according to Rud). In group Ⅱ, out of 184 implants installed immediately after tooth extraction, one was removed one month after implantation. In other cases, all implants were successfully integrated with the subsequent fabrication of prosthetic construction. Conclusion The complex "implant (installed in the socket of the tooth immediately after its removal) - bone - soft tissues - prosthetic construction" is stable over time in terms of functional and aesthetic parameters, preservation of bone tissue, and mucous membrane.
