    Multirooted teeth with advanced disease can be saved using root separation or amputation techniques. Proper case selection and surgical criteria are crucial for successful outcomes in periodontal therapy.

    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Periodontology
    • Endodontics

    Context:

    • Advanced periodontal disease, carious lesions, or endodontic failure can compromise multirooted teeth.
    • Preserving a portion of a compromised tooth is sometimes necessary for prosthetic restoration.

    Purpose:

    • To outline the criteria for successful tooth hemisection, root separation, or root amputation.
    • To identify key factors influencing the viability of using a tooth segment as an abutment.

    Summary:

    • Successful hemisection, root separation, or amputation relies on careful patient selection using diagnostic tests.
    • Adequate supporting bone, the condition of remaining teeth, optimal occlusion, aseptic endodontics, prosthesis stabilization, and oral hygiene are critical for success.

    Impact:

    • This approach allows the utilization of compromised multirooted teeth as healthy abutments.
    • It offers a viable treatment option to avoid complete tooth loss and maintain dental function.
