conclusions the clinical success rates of endodontically treated premolars restored with fiber posts and direct composite restorations, direct composite restorations with cusp capping and simple direct composite restoration were perfect after one year of follow-up evaluation. background endodontically treated teeth need to be restored in a manner to provide protection for the remaining tooth st...

The prognosis of root-filled teeth depends not only on the success of the endodontic treatment but also on the amount of remaining dentine tissue, and the nature of final restoration. Fractures of restored endodontically treated teeth are a common occurrence in clinical practice. This article outlines the mechanisms and risk factors for fracture predilection in endodontically treated teeth. Dif...

Often there is the need of moving teeth endodontically treated or teeth still in endodontic treatment. In order to collaborate with the comprehension and substantiation of the following subjects we will discuss: 1) Orthodontic movement in endodontically treated teeth without periapical lesion, 2) Orthodontic movement in endodontically treated teeth with inflammatory periapical lesion, and 3) Or...

Background and Aim: Restoration of endodontically treated teeth is one of the most important and challenging topics in restorative dentistry. Longevity of such restorations is an essential factor in treatment planning. Amalgam build-up is a conservative method for restoration of endodontically treated teeth. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the longevity of this type of restoration in endo...

Direct restoration of severely damaged endodontically treated teeth (ETT) using available and conventional and current matrix systems is sometimes impractical and in some clinical cases is impossible. The aim of this paper is to introduce and describe a new matrix system based on Rigid Tray Technique (RTT) for dealing with such difficult clinical cases.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of different restorative procedures on the fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth submitted to intracoronal bleaching. Fifty upper central incisors were distributed into 5 groups: GI - healthy teeth; GII - endodontically treated teeth sealed with Coltosol; GIII - endodontically treated teeth bleached and sealed with Coltosol; GIV ...

A tooth that has been properly treated endodontically should have a good prognosis. It can resume full function and if necessary serve satisfactory as an abutment for fixed removable partial denture. However special techniques are needed to restore such tooth. Traditionally, pulpless received dowel or post “reinforce” it crown “protect” it. Until the introduction of ZnPO4 cement in last century...

Pulpal pain does not refer to an endodontically treated tooth. Nevertheless, such a potential may exist based on a learned phenomenon due to previous treatment experiences but is rarely reported. Further, it is seldom reported to occur with atypical features. This case report is on a patient who was presented with pain in endodontically treated lower first molar (36) and recommended to undergo ...
