Post & Core: An Essential and Time-Proven Procedure
What Is a Post and Core?
If a large enough portion of a tooth is missing, whether because of a cavity, the loss of a filling, or the access cavity from root canal work, a restorative dentist can’t simply place a crown on the tooth, because it won’t be stable enough. This is where a core comes in, replacing the missing tooth structure and providing support for the new crown. Sometimes the core is enough. If not, a post may be added to anchor the core to the tooth.
