Abstract

Crown fractures of permanent anterior teeth due to trauma is the most frequent type of injury encountered. Anterior crown fractures lead to discomfort and serious psychological esthetic functional effects on the patients. Endodontic management of such teeth may require a post and core to reinforce the coronal restorations. A wide range of post systems are available today. Custom cast post and core has been the standard for many years. This case series explains about the management of mutilated anterior teeth by means of custom cast post and core followed by full coverage crowns.nbsp
