Final answer:

The bottom surface of the root of a tooth is called the apical foramen.

Step-by-step explanation:

The bottom surface of the root of a tooth is called the apical foramen. This is the opening through which nerves and blood vessels enter and exit the pulp chamber of the tooth. It is located at the tip of the root and allows for communication between the pulp cavity and the surrounding tissues.
