Abstract
Across diverse cultures, the practice of restoring lost tooth structure has endured through generations. It is widely understood that merely undergoing quality endodontic therapy is not sufficient to fully restore a severely weakened tooth with pulpal disease. Equally crucial is ensuring post-endodontic restoration followed by quality prosthetic rehabilitation. In instances where a tooth is extensively damaged, utilizing a post becomes the preferred course of action post endodontic treatment to preserve the core. The gold standard for the treatment of a severely compromised tooth is recognized as a cast post and core. In this case study, a previously treated maxillary first molar, which had a dislodged fiber post and core along with a porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) crown, underwent retreatment with a split cast metal post and core followed by a PFM crown.
