Restoration of severely worn anterior tooth with cast post: A case report

Jyotsna Sharma

Endodontically treated teeth have significantly different physical and mechanical properties compared to vital teeth. It is assumed that endodontically treated teeth are weaker and more prone to fracture because of desiccation or premature loss of moisture supplied by a vital pulp. Posts have been advocated to strengthen weakened endodontically treated teeth against intraoral forces by distributing torquing forces within the radicular dentin to supporting tissue along their roots. The following case reports depict the interdisciplinary approach to restore function and aesthetic of severely damaged treated teeth by means of full veneer crowns after custom cast post. Coordinated by prosthetic, endodontic treatments with careful consideration of patient’s expectations and requirements were critical for a successful outcome & patient satisfaction.
