“…1,9 Two systematic reviews available in the literature show that there is no evidence to support the "best way" to restore endodontically treated teeth. 20,21 A recent study comparing the use of glass fiber posts versus cast metal posts, in teeth with no remaining coronal wall, showed that no difference was found between the groups using these two types of posts, after up to 3 years of follow-up. 5 However, several factors must be borne in mind when choosing the post to be used in restoring ETT, including remaining coronal structure, presence of ferrule and post material.…”

The aim of this study was to evaluate if clinical experience, whether in relation to length of practice time and/or level of specialization influences the dentist's preference for using posts to restore endodontically treated teeth. A cross sectional study was carried out using a questionnaire with dentists (n = 276) in Pelotas, southern Brazil. Data were collected regarding clinical experience, post-graduate training, and variables related to restorations (posts/cements and use of rubber dam) for endodontically treated teeth. The data were submitted to a descriptive analysis and associations were tested. The response rate was 68%. Cast metal posts (24.53%), glass fiber posts (20.75%) and resin cement (66.67%) were the most commonly selected materials. In relation to rubber dams, 93.05% of the dentists were found not use them to lute posts. There was a significant association between the level of training of post-graduate dentists and the type of post used (p = 0.027), in that dentists without post-graduate training used cast metal posts more frequently, whereas dentists with post-graduate training reported glass fiber posts as their first choice. The results of the study showed that dentists preferred cast metal posts, glass fiber posts and resin cement. Continuing education influenced the decision of the dentists on their choice of dental posts.

“…In clinical studies comparing the survival of root filled treated teeth restored with different techniques, attempts have been made to standardize the loss of tooth structure before the start of the restorative treatment (Bolla et al 2007). In one recent randomized clinical trial the loss of tooth structure was classified on the basis of the number of dental walls left (Ferrari et al 2007), other studies have limited their investigation to Class 2 cavities (Mannocci et al 2002).…”

Micro‐computed tomography of tooth tissue volume changes following endodontic procedures and post space preparation

Access cavity and post space preparation are the procedures during root canal treatment which result in the largest loss of hard tooth tissue structure. Cast post space preparation causes a larger loss of tooth structure than fibre post space preparation. This should be taken into account when planning root canal treatment and restoration of root filled teeth that are to be restored with cuspal coverage restorations.

“…Published reviews on the clinical performance of fiber posts highlighted the need of prospective clinical trials to assess the influence of the remaining tooth structure and the type of post on the treatment outcome (23)(24)(25). Recently, 2-year and 3-year survival rates of endodontically treated premolars restored with and without post retention have been reported (9,26).…”
