Information About the Post and Core Procedure

Endodontic therapy -- more commonly known as the root canal procedure -- is a proven treatment for saving and restoring infected teeth. The treatment typically consists of disinfecting the tooth and installing a cap or crown on the remaining part of the tooth to restore and protect it. When a tooth is damaged badly enough, a treatment known as post and core restoration is required to ensure the long-term health of the tooth. This procedure involves the insertion of a rod into the root of the tooth to serve as an anchor for the crown, effectively restoring the strength, function, and appearance of the tooth.
