Planning for the future when restoring a hemisected molar: a clinical report

J Indiana Dent Assoc. 1998 Summer;77(2):31-7.

Abstract

An intracoronal attachment was incorporated into the distal surface of a surveyed complete crown of a tooth anterior to a hemisected molar. This is a recommended procedure when the distal section of a fixed partial denture is supported by a questionable long-term abutment and may require eventual replacement by a removable partial denture when an implant supported prosthesis is not indicated.
