Making endodontically/posted teeth go the distance
Goal: Patient had left front crown fractured off at gumline while overseas and required root canal treatment for future Post/Core. Patient returned to me for comprehensive treatment that included a custom cast post and core followed by splinted crowns.
Solution: A free standing endodontically treated front tooth often requires splinting to an adjacent tooth. In this case the adjacent tooth had been previously crowned and was vital (w/o root canal).
