Hello Sir
Yes this is possible.
Hemisection represents a form of conservative procedure, which aims at retaining as much of the original tooth structure as possible.
It may be a suitable alternative to extraction.
Hemisection of the affected tooth allows the preservation of tooth structure, and bone.
The keys to long term success appear to be thorough diagnosis followed by interdisciplinary approach with endodontic, surgical and prosthetic procedures.
Preservation of a hopeless tooth is possible by selecting patients with good oral hygiene, and careful surgical and restorative management.
Next Steps
xrays
