INTRARADICULAR REHABILITATION OF ENDODONTICALLY TREATED TEETH - Priya Mishra - Bog

The number of endodontic procedures has increased steadily in the past decade with highly predictable results. Therefore, restoration of teeth after endodontic treatment is becoming an integral part of the restorative practice in dentistry. Proper restoration of ET teeth begins with a good understanding of their physical and biomechanical properties, anatomy, and a sound knowledge of the endodontic, periodontal, restorative, and occlusal principles. The primary function of the endodontic posts is to provide retention for the core and enable full sealing of the coronal portion of the root canal. Since much attention is given to esthetics, using esthetic posts with composite/ceramic cores has become very common in restorative dentistry.
