Post Endodontic Restorations

Bys: B, Vedavathi, Das, Aathira, M, Deepthi

Post-endodontic restorations are essential procedures carried out after root canal treatment to restore the tooth's strength, function, and esthetics. Following endodontic therapy, the tooth becomes more brittle and prone to fracture due to loss of moisture and structural integrity. The type of restoration chosen depends on the amount of remaining tooth structure, tooth position, and functional demands. When minimal tooth structure is lost, direct restorations such as composite or amalgam fillings may suffice. However, teeth with significant coronal destruction often require a post and core system to provide retention and support for the final crown. A critical factor for long-term success is maintaining an adequate ferrule helps resist fracture and enhance stability. Proper case selection, preservation of tooth structure, and precise restorative techniques are key to achieving durable and functional post-endodontic restorations.
