Post endo restoration with AF Fiber Post
The use intraradicular posts in root filled teeth has been an area of much discussion and controversy. It is imperative to acknowledge that the purpose of a post is to facilitate core retention; it does not increase the strength of the root or compensate for the absence of a ferrule effect. With the evolution of […]
Post-Endo conservative fiber post build up
Core build up using adhesive materials has become very popular due to many advantages of this technique. Better aesthetics in the front region and better mechanical force distribution compared to metal posts are some of the advantages. Another enhancement would be the conservative preparation or even no post preparation for root canal treated teeth, where […]
Root To Crown With Dentoclic Fiber Post Build Up Chapter 2: Premolar Case
Failing primary endodontic treatment on the Upper Right second premolar with large lesion. Root canal retreatment was conducted with intracanal medication with calcium hydroxide for 1 week after the cleaning and shaping.
Upper molar, how to prepare the post space: from A to Z
Post space preparation is a critical step to achieve clean dentinal surfaces for adhesion of the cementing material. Therefore, complete removal of the root filing materials is essential to enhance the adhesive bond to the dentine and increase post retention. Furthermore, the presence of residual gutta-percha and deficient dentine hybridisation may result in poor sealing of […]
Lower canine with 2 roots and a small Medial canal on the floor chamber
Before starting any Endodontic Root Canal treatment, it is necessary to know the anatomy and morphology of the tooth as best as possible. The anatomy of root canal morphology plays a decisive role in determining the conditions under which Endodontic treatment can be performed effectively.
Endo Resto With Dentoclic Fiber Post Build Up
In the following clinical case, a maxillary first premolar was presented with invading decay reaching the pulp chamber. The tooth was diagnosed with irreversible pulpitis needing root canal treatment. The pre-operative X-ray revealed a 3 rooted premolar, a special configuration that can be found in 5% of the cases as cited by Vertucci. Knowing that […]
Treatment of an extensive radicular fracture: RCT and restoration of a structurally compromised tooth. Part. 2
Trauma related fractures are one of the most common types of dental injury in the permanent dentition. The purpose of this case report is to present a multidisciplinary management of a sub-gingival crown- root fracture in a patient. Management of traumatic dental injuries (TDI) should involve a multidisciplinary approach with the aim of optimizing the […]
Itena Glass Fiber Post Restoration Step by Step
Clinicians often face dilemmas regarding the most appropriate way to restore a tooth following root canal treatment. Whilst there is established consensus on the importance of the ferrule effect on the predictable restoration of root filled teeth, other factors, such as residual tooth volume, tooth location, number of proximal contacts, timing of the definitive restoration […]
Use of Itena Dentoclic Glass Fiber Post in the Restoration of endodontically treated tooth
Endodontically treated teeth (ETT) are more susceptible to biomechanics failures compared to vital teeth, mostly due to the amount of internal tooth structure that is removed during endodontic treatment and the loss of coronal hard tissue. The prognosis of ETT is based not only on the quality of the endodontic treatment, but also on the […]
