Restoration of endodontically treated teeth is a crucial step following a root canal procedure. After the pulp is removed and the tooth is cleaned and sealed, the tooth structure may become weakened. To restore the tooth's function and appearance, crowns or other restorations are placed on top of the treated tooth.
The process typically involves preparing the tooth by removing any remaining decayed material and shaping it to fit the crown. The crown is then placed over the tooth, providing strength and durability. In some cases, a post may be placed inside the tooth to support the crown.
Restoring endodontically treated teeth helps prevent future damage, restore function, and ensure the longevity of the tooth, allowing it to remain functional for many years.
