Recent evidence-based trends in restoring endo-treated teeth, place “post /core and crown” option as the last choice among best treatment modalities. Sadly, dental practitioners used to choose this treatment option based on what they are used-to-do rather than what is really evidence- based in success and longevity. Utilizing more recent, easier, cheaper and more efficient trends in addressing endo-treated teeth. Endo crowns, nayyar cores, anatomic posts and even the old Richmond crowns may present a more efficient choice! Partial or complete coverage? PEEK, ceramic or titanium? Deep marginal elevation versus crown lengthening or ortho extrusion. All addressed and more in coach-style presentation!
