Esthetic Rehabilitation of Mutilated Anterior Teeth with Custom Cast Post and Core Porcelain-Fused-to-Metal Crowns

Abstract

ABSTRACT An endodontically treated anterior tooth requires extracoronal restoration when the tooth structure is weakened or lost due to caries, endodontic treatment, placement of previous restorations and/or is discolored. The reduced tooth structure makes retention of extracoronal restoration difficult. The purpose of post is to provide retention for the core restoration, which replaces lost coronal structure. This article describes restoration of mutilated maxillary central incisors by using cast post and core, followed with porcelain fused to metal restorations.
