< The Restoration of Endodontically Treated Teeth > An overview of the concepts through the eyes of an
endodontist and of a restorative dentist
Coure Description:
The principles of the restoration of the endodontically treated
teeth have evolved. It is well recognized today that a post does
not reinforce an endodontically treated tooth. When a tooth has
been suering from extensive caries or trauma, the post and
core serves as an anchorage to oer retention and resistance to
dislodgement for the future coronary restoration.
When the remaining coronary tooth structure is insucient, it
has to be restored with a prefabricated post and a coronary
reconstruction, or a cast post and core. During this presentation,
concepts surrounding the use of post and core will be
reviewed and illustrated with clinical cases.
