Strategic management of chronic pulpitis with post and core restoration: A clinical approach to anterior tooth rehabilitation.

Abstract Chronic pulpitis is a prevalent condition that often results in significant tooth structure loss, necessitating restorative treatments. For teeth with extensive damage, post and core restorations are essential to restore both functionality and aesthetics. These procedures are particularly important in providing structural support for crowns (Sorensen & Martinoff, 1984). The use of fiber-reinforced posts has gained popularity due to their excellent biocompatibility, high adhesive strength, and superior stress distribution, making them ideal for endodontically treated teeth (Schmidlin et al., 2008). This case report details the stepwise management of chronic pulpitis through post and core restoration. Keywords: Chronic pulpitis, post and core, fiber post, composite core buildup, full veneer crown
