Abstract

Fracture of an endodontically treated tooth,restored with a crown and an underlying post occurs frequently. This augments toa complex clinical situation that requires immediate attention. In this technique the existing crown was used after removing the fractured cast post. Fibre post was placed and the intaglio surface of the crown was duplicated using core build up material with aluminium foil acting as a separating medium between the crown and the core build up material. By this technique the same crown was recemented. This resulted in an optimal retention of the existing crown, thereby maintaining the existing esthetics and occlusal relationship. This is a simple chair side and immediate treatment option which can be used as a long term treatment option or a temporary one.

Key words: Post and Core, Chair Side Repair, Post Fracture, Core Build Up, Fibre Post
