Abstract

The ideal restoration of endodontically treated teeth (ETT) has been widely and controversially discussed in the literature. Prevention of healthy dental structure is essential to help mechanical stabilization of tooth-restoration integrity, increase the amount of suitable surfaces for adhesion and thus positively affect the long-term success. ETT are affected by a higher risk of biomechanical failure than vital teeth. With the development of adhesive systems, the need for post-core restorations is also reduced. Especially for restoration of excessively damaged ETT, endocrowns have been used as an alternative to the conventional post-core and fixed partial dentures. Compared to conventional methods, good aesthetics, better mechanical performance, and less cost and clinic time are the advantages of endocrowns.
