The success of restoration depends on several factors such as remaining tooth structure, tooth location, functional and esthetic demands, and occlusal loading.Various restorative approaches range from direct composite restorations and onlays to full-coverage crowns, with or without the use of posts and cores. The primary objectives are to achieve a coronal seal to prevent reinfection, reinforce the tooth to resist fracture, and restore proper form, function, and esthetics.Advancements in adhesive dentistry, minimally invasive techniques, fiber-reinforced posts, and biomimetic materials have significantly improved the long-term prognosis of endodontically treated teeth. Therefore, careful case selection and appropriate restorative planning are essential for predictable outcomes in post-endodontic rehabilitation.…
