Sakamoto column – Monoblock – Post cementation and core build up in one step on endodontically treated tooth

Vol. 10 – Number 37 – 2020 Sakamoto column Page 10-19 Monoblock – Post cementation and core build up in one step on endodontically treated tooth Patrícia Ferronato Araújo¹ Ana Carolina Portes Pasmadjian² Antonio Setsuo Sakamoto Junior³ Abstract The literature reports several materials for the restoration of endodontically treated teeth, with coronal destruction that requires an intra-root fiber post to stabilize the prosthetic part. The intra-radicular post of composite resin reinforced with fiberglass can be used as retainers in rehabilitating endodontically treated teeth due to their adhesiveness, pleasing aesthetics, and elasticity module close to the dentin less wear on the remaining structure. This clinical case reports the step-by-step application of dual resin cement (Rebilda DC Dentine – Voco) used as the cementation material of the post and material for the filling core in a single step, in an upper right lateral incisor. Moreover, it describes the advantages and indications of the post-and-core technique, also called “monobloc” which can be used in both anterior and posterior teeth. This protocol minimizes the adhesive interfaces, the chair time, and the steps of the clinical procedure.
