Journal Title: Journal of Advanced Medical and Dental Sciences Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Introduction: Restoration of primary incisors, which have been severely damaged by extensive caries or trauma, is a difficult task for the Pediatric dentist. Primary teeth dictate the physical appearance, and their structural affects leads to loss of esthetics compromised mastication, poor phonetics, development of aberrant habits, neuromuscular imbalance, and difficulty in socio- psychological adjustment of the child. Case description: This Case Report discusses the restoration of severely decayed primary maxillary incisors using composite resin restoration reinforced with Glass impregnated post in anterior teeth in a 4 years old male patient. Discussion: The use of intracanal posts in endodontically treated teeth improves the retention of a eventual restoration. The use of impregnated fiber glass post together with flowable composite offers an alternative where all components are bonded together to form a firmly attached restoration. Conclusion: The technique of using glass impregnated composite resin as post and core has shown promising results and has presented Pediatric dentists with an additional treatment option.
