Bearing in mind that retrograde obturation material depth is a recommended 3 mm, that would leave us with a final 8 mm root length for post placement, thus apex sectioning would compromise the endo-post length, decreasing force distribution and retention, as well as tooth stability within the alveolus.
Por tal motivo, el realizar el corte del ápice compromete tanto la longitud del endoposte, disminuyendo la distribución de fuerzas y su retención, como la estabilidad del diente dentro del alvéolo.
