Post And Core Procedure in Dentistry A healthy smile is essential for confidence and overall well-being. However, when a tooth is severely damaged due to decay, trauma, or root canal treatment, it may require additional support before placing a crown. This is where the post and core procedure comes into play. At Prime Dental Center, we specialize in advanced restorative treatments, including post and core procedures, to strengthen and preserve your natural teeth. What is a Post and Core? A post and core is a dental restoration used when a tooth has been significantly weakened and lacks sufficient structure to support a crown. This procedure involves two main components: Post: A small metal or fiber-reinforced rod inserted into the tooth's root canal to provide stability. Core: A filling material that rebuilds the missing tooth structure, creating a solid foundation for a dental crown. This method ensures the tooth remains functional while preventing further damage or fracture. When is a Post and Core Procedure Necessary? The post and core procedure is typically recommended in the following cases: When a tooth has undergone root canal treatment and lacks enough natural structure to hold a crown. If a tooth has been severely fractured or broken and requires reinforcement before crowning. When a tooth has extensive decay and cannot support a restoration on its own.
