Restoration of Endodontically Treated Molars Using All Ceramic Endocrowns

Abstract EN

Clinical success of endodontically treated posterior teeth is determined by the postendodontic restoration.

Several options have been proposed to restore endodontically treated teeth.

Endocrowns represent a conservative and esthetic restorative alternative to full coverage crowns.

The preparation consists of a circular equigingival butt-joint margin and central retention cavity into the entire pulp chamber constructing both the crown and the core as a single unit.

The case reports discussed here are moderately damaged endodontically treated molars restored using all ceramic endocrowns fabricated using two different systems, namely, CAD/CAM and pressed ceramic.
