Abstract

A clinical case is presented in which the prosthetic restoration of two anterior teeth, esthetically compromised was required. Quartz fiber posts were used in wide non rounded root canals. A relining technique with composite resin was used to accomplish a better adaptation of the tooth posts to the internal walls of the tooth, thus reducing the required quantity of adhesive resin cement and achieve a best friction to favor fixation. In this research it is emphasized the importance of communication, teamwork and integration of prosthetic as well as endodontic concepts to confront the challenge of a better adaptation of the posts to non rounded root canals.

Keywords: Anatomic fiber quartz posts; Endodontically treated teeth; Integration of prosthetics and endodontics concepts
