this patient was reffered to me, due to the composite infiltration, for this reason the patient was scheduled for a retreatment, probably infiltrated.

The retreatment was done in one visit; the picture shows the details of the pulp chamber floor prior to fill the canals with guttapercha

Conclusions

The indirect restaurations are part of the endodontical treatments. In many cases they are very complex, therefore they have to be well prepared right at the begining of the endodontical treatment. 

The indirect restauration has a special importance because the prognosis of the whole tooth depends on it.
