Treatment of interradicular defects of molar teeth (PART 1)

Before deciding the treatment of an interradicular defect of an upper or lower molar a dentist has to be very familiar with the anatomy of the tooth, both in the coronal and in the radicular area. It is so because the knowledge of the anatomy will be very helpful in the process of decision-making. Many different scenarios will be presented and evaluated in order to teach the students the correct decision for different clinical situations. The students will learn a protocol to perform root separation and/or resection which, if followed step by step, will help them in obtaining predictable and stable long-term results.
