Endocrown: A Minimally Invasive Alternative to Conventional Fixed Prosthesis

Endodontically treated teeth with compromised coronal tooth structure often require core build-ups with the support of radicular posts. In certain cases, the traditional post and core approach may not be possible due to various anatomical and clinical contraindications. Such cases require more meticulous planning and alternative treatment approaches for successful outcomes. The endocrown technique offers a conservative and minimally invasive approach, providing functional and aesthetic rehabilitation while preserving tooth structure. In this clinical case report, we discuss an endocrown-type restoration made from lithium disilicate ceramic in a maxillary first molar with extensive coronal destruction.
