Journal Title: International Journal of Medical and Health Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Advances in dentistry, as well as the increased desire of patients to maintain their dentition, have lead to treatment of teeth that once would have been removed. In order to carry out this present day mandate, extensive tooth structure loss of lingual and mesial surface(46) associated with involvement of furcation area of the tooth may well be retained by removal of one root. This case report describes a simple procedure for hemisection in mandibular molar and its subsequent restoration.
