Endodontically
Treated Teeth
Post and Core System
Characteristics of endodontically treated teeth
1. Tooth structure loss by:
i. Caries, trauma, erosion, abrasion, attrition.
i. Periodontal
condition:
iii. Restorative evaluation:
a. Strategic importance:
• does the final restoration depends on this tooth ? Are the
adjacent teeth reliable? What about an implant ?
iv. Anatomic position of the tooth:
Anterior teeth:
• They receive mainly angular forces reinforcement
effect of posts is doubtful.
• If the tooth is intact except for the endodontic access opening
etched resin in the access is sufficient.

Advantages: Disadvantages:
High retention Stresses generated in
canal may lead to
fracture
Recommended Use: Does not conserve
Only when maximum coronal and radicular
retention is essential

CORES
Indications
Principles
Types of core build up
Procedure
INDICATIONS
Core restorations are indicated if any of the
following clinical conditions exist:
The replacement of missing coronal tooth
structure is necessary.
When the enhanced retention and resistance
to displacement of the final restoration is
necessary.
Fracture resistance of five pinretained core buildup materials on teeth with and
without extracoronal preparation.

This study showed that the tensile and
flexural strengths of composite are
significantly higher than that of amalgam
and glass ionomer.
