To post or not to post? Endodontic treatment and then what?
19 Nov 2024
About the event
Restoring endodontically treated teeth is challenging due to significant structure loss and altered dentin properties; increasing their fracture risk. Restoration is essential; yet treatment options can be unclear. Key considerations include the remaining tooth structure; position; function; and esthetics. Though posts enhance restoration retention; they don’t reinforce the tooth or reduce fracture risk. A personalized approach; focusing on preserving healthy tissue and adhering to biomechanical principles; is recommended. The seminar will cover criteria; options; protocols; and materials for effective restoration tailored to each case.
