A Simplified Technique for Retrofitting a Post and Core Foundation to a Preexisting Crown: A Case Report
Journal Title: Open Access Journal of Dental Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Esthetic and functionally restoration of endodontically treated tooth is commonly performed by a post and core .Many causes of failure can lead to fracture of abutment such as composite debonding, trauma and recurrent caries .This paper describes a simplified technique for fabrication of a casted post and core by retrofitting an old metal ceramic crown using duralay resin as model without the original die or its replica in a simple and time-saving way.
