Utilization of biological posts to reconstruct weakened roots

Abstract

Adequate reconstruction of endodontically treated teeth with severe loss of dentine tissue is one of the challenges of Restorative Dentistry. None of the commercially available pre-fabricated intraradicular posts meets all ideal biological and mechanical properties. Recently, a technique for the reconstruction of pulpless teeth with weakened roots has been indicated – the use of dental posts obtained from natural teeth. This article presents, through a clinical case, important details for the execution of the technique
