Discussion: Molar tooth plays a very important role in our day to day life, its loss can result in several undesirable sequelae including tilting of adjacent teeth, a collapse of the vertical dimension of occlusion, supraeruption of opposing dentition, loss of supporting alveolar bone and a decrease in chewing ability.[18] Conclusion: Hemisection is the alternative, effective and conservative treatment procedure.
