Abstract :

Advances in dentistry, as well as the increased desire of patients to maintain the longevity of their dentition, have lead to treatment of teeth that once would have been removed. This article describes about the successful management of hemisection of a mandibular molar and its subsequent restoration.It is a conservative approach aiming to retain as much original tooth structure as possible against the option of extraction of the natural tooth.In addition, this case report sheds little light on the significance of mini implants in orthodontic anchorage in interdisciplinary cases.
