INTRODUCTION: Although long-term functional survival rates can be high for initial
endodontically treated permanent teeth, they are generally more susceptible to fracture than …

Most endodontically treated teeth require a post-and-core build-up for restoring the teeth to
optimum health and function. Selection of an appropriate post-and-core system from the …

Endodontics is the prevention, diagnosis and management of diseases of the tooth pulp and
the tissues surrounding the root of a tooth. This new edition brings trainees up to date with …

Posts were recommended more than 100 years ago to retain artificial crowns. Recent
studies suggest that posts can weaken teeth; therefore restorative procedures that help …

Endodontic therapy is used routinely in contemporary dentistry, but a satisfactory restorative
solution is necessary after the root canal has been treated. There are a variety of materials …

Vertical root fractures associated with endodontically treated teeth and less commonly in
vital teeth represent one of the most difficult clinical problems to diagnose and treat. In as …

Background It is very difficult and relatively unpredictable to preserve and restore severely
weakened pulpless roots. To provide much needed benefit basis for clinical practice, this …

In this study, the biomechanical perspective of fracture predilection in post‐core restored
teeth is investigated using computational, experimental, and fractographic analyses. The …

Statement of Problem: The main factor that determines the prognosis of restored pulpless
teeth is preservation of sound dentin. Purpose: This study evaluated the residual dentinal …

Statement of problem. Tapered posts allow for the preservation of tooth substance in the
fragile apical area and are advantageous in clinical situations where they conform to the root …
