Digital, Conventional, And Biomimetic Approaches for Restoring Endodontically Treated Teeth

Endocrowns are preferred over the post-retained crown, especially at a young age for many reasons; they allow better gingival health and care due to placement of the supragingival margin, have greater fracture resistance limiting the risk for root fracture, thus improving the long-term prognosis of ETMs and has a superior ability to restore ETMs with short crowns, calcified root canals, and thin roots. Furthermore, using CAD/CAM technology facilitates Endocrowns preparation making it simpler with less invasive techniques that can be prepared, fabricated, and cemented in a single visit. The high demand for permanent, esthetic, and conservative restorations has directed clinicians to restore permanent ETMs at a young age with Endo crowns as final coronal restorations. In addition, Biomimetic dentistry leverages modern materials to replicate the biological and mechanical functions of natur
