Abstract

A successful endodontic treatment has to be complemented with an adequate postendodontic restoration to make the pulpless tooth function indefinitely as an integral part of the oral masticatory apparatus. Careful postendodontic restoration is required, as the cumulative loss of tooth structure due to caries, trauma, and endodontic procedures combined with the loss of structural integrity contributes to the fracture of the tooth.
