Summary
Ideal coronal reconstruction of endodontically treated tooth is still a challenge for restorative dentistry. This case report addresses the esthetic and functional restoration of a fractured, endodontically treated maxillary left central incisor in a young patient, through the preparation and adhesive cementation of a ―Biological Post‖ made from a freshly extracted, intact human canine. A proper coronary reconstruction that produces satisfactory esthetic and functional conditions for endodontically treated and extensively damaged teeth is still a challenge for restorative dentistry, considering that, to achieve these conditions, the making of an intracanal retention, aimed at a better retention and stability of the dental fragments, becomes imperative.
