Such teeth are usually given a poor prognosis and indicated for extraction. But in conditions where the tooth is periodontally sound, various resective procedures are attempted at saving the tooth and retaining it. Bicuspidization is one such procedure which essentially bisects the tooth into 2 parts. In the present case, a molar with a vertical fracture line involving the furcation was managed by bicuspidization and subsequently rehabilitated. 04 25 2022 9 11 1 10.31254/BIOMED-CROSSMARK-POLICY www.biomedresearch.org false 10.31254/dentistry.2022.7103 http://www.dentistryscience.com/IJDR_202271_03.pdf
