Abstract

Background. Restoration of endodontically treated tooth may bring more risks of fracture than a vital tooth. The decision making should be taken based on clinical appearance and consideration. This case report informed crown restoration with fiber post and Smart Dentin Replacement after root canal treatment for anterior upper maxilla teeth. Case report. A 24-year-old female visits the dental hospital complaining of pain in the anterior upper teeth. The pain arose spontaneously and got worse when chewing something ever since three days ago. Clinical examination showed central right incisor, temporary bridge central left and missing left lateral incisor. The patient felt pain during the percussion and vitality test. Radiograph examination revealed diffuse lesion 4 mm around apical upper right incisor a upper left incisor. Pulpectomy had been made on the first visit to reduce the pain. After that, root canal treatment had made by multiple visits. The biomechanical preparation was conducted with a stepback technique followed by the root canal medication was scheduled in the next visit. Obturation after the root canal had been sterilized. Root canal restoration planned to be achieved using fiber post and porcelain fused to metal crown. Conclusion, endodontic treated teeth in the anterior region should consider being restored with esthetics materials. Fiber post could be used to restore endodontically tooth followed by porcelain fused to the metal crown to improve the function of mastication as well as esthetics. One month of evaluation revealed good condition without any complaints, pain, and clinical abnormalities.
