To rehabilitate the coronal portion of the anterior teeth, which had been fractured, is one of the major issues faced by endodontists. This leads to various problems, including the functional, psychological, and aesthetic appearance of the patient, and it is also a serious challenge for the placement of a permanent prosthesis over the concerned region.
Post and core come out to be a tremendous option considering the tooth which is badly broken down, and it also facilitates the deployment of a crown over it. There are different categories of post systems available in modern dentistry.
The post is typically made from metal or other durable materials, and the core is shaped to form the foundation for a final crown.
Cast post and core is a promising approach when dealing with a weakened tooth that lost its strength due to either extensive caries or traumatic injuries.
