Abstract

Hemisection is an invasive procedure of conservative dentistry, dealing with the disengagement of a molar tooth at the furcation area leading to the simultaneous removal of diseased root and crown portion. The assured predictability and higher success rates make it one of the common procedures carried out in preservation of sound structure of a molar with healthy periodontium.
