Abstract
Current literature suggests that tooth fracture post endodontic treatment is a more common complication than an endodontic reinfection. The best way to treat such complication is rehabilitation with complete coverage restoration with or without a foundation restoration. Critical analysis of several in vitro studies suggest that a posterior glass fiber reinforced composite restoration, particularly with glass fiber posts placed horizontally in a bucco-lingual direction improves the fracture resistance significantly. These case reports describe in detail the method of placement of posts horizontally rather than the conventional vertical placement in endodontically treated teeth to strengthen the remaining coronal tooth structure.
