ABSTRACT:
The invention herein comprises methods and products for attaching a crown replacement on an endodontically treated tooth. The superior surface of the tooth is shaped to receive the base of the crown replacement and an interior space is machined into the root canal to accept placement of a post. The instrumented area is then flushed with a chelating agent followed by an organic solvent. A cementing medium having great compressive strength is placed around a post fitted into the cavity. After the cement has set, a quantity of filler material is placed around the remaining exposed part of the post. This post forms the support for the crown replacement. If desired, a preformed crown replacement may be placed over the cemented structure until a permanent crown can be made.
