Hemisection is sectioning of multi-rooted teeth with its crown portion, with the loss of periodontal attachment and is performed to retain the original tooth structure and attain the fixed orthodontics prosthesis. We describe midsection of a mandibular molar tooth followed by adequate restoration in a young patient.
