Restorative Post & Core Treatment in Bandra West, Mumbai
Our post and core procedure is a specialized restorative dental treatment designed to rebuild a tooth that has undergone root canal therapy or suffered significant structure loss due to decay or fracture. When a tooth is heavily damaged, there isn't enough remaining natural structure to support a crown. Dr. Devanand G. Shetty (BDS, MDS) performs precise post and core procedures to restore the tooth's structural integrity, creating a strong and stable foundation.
At YouFirst Dental Clinic in Bandra, Mumbai, we use premium biocompatible materials for both posts (like fiber-reinforced composite posts) and core build-ups to ensure the longevity, function, and aesthetics of your restored tooth.
Why Choose Post & Core?
Post and core treatment provides crucial internal support for weakened teeth, preventing extraction and allowing for a successful final crown restoration.
Structural Stability
Reinforces the root canal-treated tooth, distributing biting forces evenly to prevent future fractures.
Saves Natural Teeth
Allows heavily decayed or broken teeth to be saved and restored rather than extracted.
Crown Foundation
Creates the necessary shape and strength to securely fit and support a dental crown or bridge.
Post & Core Procedure Details
We provide customized post and core treatments using advanced techniques to suit your specific restorative goals:
Fiber Post Placement
A lightweight, highly aesthetic fiber post is placed inside the prepared root canal space to provide internal reinforcement without compromising natural tooth shade.
Composite Core Buildup
A durable, tooth-colored composite material is built and bonded around the post to rebuild the crown portion of the tooth.
Final Crown Preparation
The built-up core is shaped to receive a custom dental crown, restoring full function and a natural, seamless look.
