Maxillary molar root amputation: Case report with a 14-year follow-up and updated mini reviewKey Clinical Message : Root resection is performed to create a maintainable furcation area in teeth with advanced periodontitis. However, the long-term feasibility of this treatment remains controversial. We present a case in which distal root resection in a maxillary molar successfully preserved the form and function of the dentition for approximately 14 years.Keywords : Periodontitis, Furcation defect; long-term; Prognosis, Molar teeth
