Fiber Posts & Crowns
Fiber Posts & Crowns
Sometimes after root canal treatment, there is not enough sound tooth structure left to hold a crown. The main function of a post is to engage the prepared and clean canal walls, and to provide additional support and stability for core material and a future crown. At Deluxe Dentistry, we use fiber posts that have multiple advantages over conventional metal and engaging metal posts to help ensure a successful, lasting tooth utilizing the finest materials while utilizing the latest techniques.
Benefits of our Deluxe fiber posts:
- Minimally invasive post space preparation
- Can be glued/bonded to the roots and the tooth very effectively
- Flexible like teeth instead of rigid like metal posts
- Retrievable
- Precise fit
- Far fewer chances of root fracture
After root canal treatment, teeth become more brittle and susceptible to a fracture; therefore, it is recommended to get a final restoration, usually a crown, within the first month after the root canal has been completed. Crowns protect and restore teeth to their full function. After having a crown placed at Deluxe Dentistry, the tooth continues to function and blend in well with your smile.
