Abstract
Uspjeh endodontskog liječenja postiže se uklanjanjem ili značajnim smanjenjem broja bakterija, prevencijom ponovne bakterijske kontaminacije, zatvaranjem korijenskih kanala te kvalitetnom postendodontskom rekonstrukcijom zubne krune. Protokol kojim liječimo zub uključuje čišćenje i širenje korijenskih kanala zbog čega je narušena stabilnost samog zuba te su izmijenjena njegova mehanička i fizikalna svojstva. Upravo kako bi očuvali zubnu strukturu i osigurali joj dugotrajnost unutar stomatognatnog sustava koji je pod konstantnim opterećenjem vanjskih sila, bitno je provesti adekvatnu rekonstrukciju krune tog zuba. Uz
temeljito provedenu dijagnostiku koja uključuje uzimanje anamnestičkih podataka pacijenta, detaljnu analizu radioloških snimki i provođenje intraoralnog i ekstraoralnog pregleda te određenih testova pristupamo kreiranju plana terapije. Ovisno o stanju preostalog zubnog tkiva, parodonta, smještaju zuba te ostalih zuba u ustima, suvremena stomatologija nam nudi brojne materijale kojima možemo opskrbiti krunu zuba. Također, bitan aspekt nam čine i pacijentove želje i mogućnosti koje svakako ne smijemo ignorirati. Kao postendodontsku opskrbu nude nam se izravne i neizravne restauracije te protetski nadomjesci. Od materijala možemo birati između kompozita, staklenoionomernog cementa, cirkona, keramike te drugih rjeđe zastupljenih u praksi. Nerijetko kod liječenih zubi je potrebno napraviti i nadogradnju radi povećavanja kliničke krune zuba koja može biti individualna ili konfekcijska. Postendodontska rekonstrukcija zubne krune predstavlja spektar brojnih postupaka i mogućnosti koje nam stoje na raspolaganju kako bi zubu vratili njegovu formu, funkciju, estetska svojstva te u konačnici i ulogu u stomatognatnom sustavu.The success rate of endodontic treatment is achived by removing or significantly reducing the number of bacteria, preventing repeated bacterial contamination, filling root canals, and highquality post-endodontic reconstruction of dental crowns. Protocol used to treat the tooth includes cleaning and enlargement of root canals, due to whichstability of the tooh itself is impaired and its mechanical and physical properties are changed. To preserve dental structure and ensure its longevity within the stomatognathic system, whichis under constant load from external forces, it is essential to carry out an adequate reconstruction of the crown of that tooth. Through thoroughly performed diagnosis, which includes obtaining the patient's anamnestic data, detailed evaluation of radiological images, and conducting intra- and extraoral examination as well as particulat tests, one approaches the creation of a therapy plan. Depending on the condition of the remaining dental tissue, periodontium, position of the tooth, and other teeth in the mouth, modern dentistry offers numerouos materials that can suppy the crown of the tooth. Moreover, the patient's wishes and possibilities are an imperative aspect that cannot be ignored. Direct and indirect restorations and prosthetic restorations are offered as post-endodontic care. One can choose from composite or glass ionomer resins, zirconia, ceramics, and others that are not common practice. Often in treated
teeth, it is necessary to make the post-and-core system to increase the clinical crown of the tooth, which can be individual or ready-made. Post-endodontic reconstruction of the crown of the tooth represents a spectrum of numerous procedures and possibilities available to restore the tooth to its form, function, aesthetic properties, and, ultimately, its role in the
stomatognathic system
