Abstract
Introduction : Hemisection of a mandibular molar is a treatment modality when the decay is constrained to one root and the other root is healthy. In this, a mandibular molar is sectioned into two halves followed by removal of the diseased root along with its coronal portion. The retained root is endodontically treated and its furcation area is made self-cleansable by proper cleaning and debridement. Case report: This case report contains 3 cases with periodontally compromised mandibular molar which is not restorable by root canal treatment alone, which was managed by hemisection and with the various prosthetic treatment option. Result: The patients were followed for a period of 1 year .Adequate healing was seen with reduction of mobility. Conclusion: This treatment can produce predictable results as long as proper case selection is followed by an interdisciplinary approach with endodontic, surgical and prosthetic procedures.
