Abstract

Bicuspidization of molars is a less commonly used technique of endodontic surgery. The increased desire of patients to maintain their dentition has forced conservative dentistry to conserve the teeth in the mouth which are planned to be removed. In the light of this finding it is known that periodontally compromised teeth with severe bone loss at the furcation area may well be retained of their roots. In this case report bicuspidization of the left mandibular first molar with a simple procedure and subsequent prosthetic treatments are presented.

Biküspidizasyon: Bir Olgu Sunusu

Abstract

 

Molar dişlerin biküspidizasyonu endodontik cerrahide daha az sıklılta kullanılan bir tekniktir. Hastaların dişlerinin idamesine olan arzuları koruyucu diş hekimliğinde çıkarılması planlanan dişlerin korunmasını zorlamaktadır. Bu bulguların ışığında, bilinir ki, periodontal olarak furkasyon bölgesinde ciddi kemik kaybı ile tehlikeye düşen dişler kökleri ile iyi bir şekilde korunabilir. Bu olgu sunumunda sol alt birinci molar dişin basit bir işlem olan biküspidizasyonu ve sonraki protez tedavileri sunulmuştur.

Keywords

Biküspidizasyon, Hemiseksiyon, Furkasyon tutulumu, Mandibular molar.
