Dr. Sonal Joshi, Dr. Sunita Shivanand

Abstract :

Dentists are challenged to save teeth that in another era would have been extracted without question. Hemisection refers to removal or separation of root with its accompanying crown portion of two-rooted teeth most likely mandibular molars. Hemi-section of the affected tooth helps preserve the tooth structure, alveolar bone and promote cost savings over other treatment options. This case report describes a simple procedure for hemisection in mandibular molar and its restoration.
