Objective: To evaluate the distance from the root to the bone tables and nasal floor of maxillary anterior teeth with indication for apical microsurgery. Material and methods: The sample consisted of 44 cone beam computed tomographic images prior to the apical microsurgery procedure; in addition, 31 images were selected for comparison with contralateral teeth without indication for apical microsurgery. The distance from the root to the bone tables and nasal floor was measured. Results: The distance from the root surface to the vestibular and palatal bone tables 3 mm from the apex was 0.98 ± 0.67 mm and 4.26 ± 2.97 mm for the central incisor; 0.77 ± 0.50 mm and 2.12 ± 1.22 mm for the lateral incisor; and 0.52 ± 0.63 mm and 5.31 ± 1.38 mm for the canine, respectively. The shortest distance from the apex to the nasal floor was 9.56 ± 2.88 mm for the central incisor, 10.33 ± 2....
