Natural-Looking Tooth Restoration with Endo Post & Crown
Endo Post and Crown Build-Up is a specialized dental procedure designed to restore teeth that have undergone root canal treatment and have lost significant structure. This treatment strengthens the tooth internally with a post and rebuilds the visible portion with a crown, restoring both function and appearance.
At Aesthetic Dental Care in Costa Rica, we combine advanced materials, cutting-edge techniques, and expert dental specialists to ensure your restored tooth looks natural, functions perfectly, and lasts for many years. Ideal for both local and international patients, this treatment helps you regain confidence in your smile while preserving your natural teeth whenever possible.
What is Endo Post and Crown Build-Up?
Endo Post and Crown Build-Up is a two-part dental procedure:
✅ Endodontic Post:After a root canal, a tooth can become weak. A small, strong post is placed inside the root canal to provide support and stability. This helps the tooth handle biting and chewing, especially if much of its structure is lost.
✅ Crown Build-Up: Once the post is in place, the tooth is rebuilt using dental materials. A crown is then placed on top to restore the tooth’s shape, strength, and function. This protects the tooth and gives it a natural appearance.
This approach protects the tooth from fracture, improves chewing ability, and ensures long-term durability, while maintaining the natural alignment of your smile.
Types of Endo Post and Crown Build-Up
✅ Fiber Posts: Flexible, tooth-colored posts ideal for aesthetic areas; blend naturally with crowns and minimize stress on the tooth.
✅ Metal Posts: Extremely strong and durable; preferred for posterior teeth where bite forces are higher.
✅ Prefabricated Posts: Standardized posts available in various sizes; faster placement and effective support for most root-canal-treated teeth.
✅ Custom Cast Posts: Individually designed in a dental lab to perfectly fit complex root canals and provide maximum stability.
Each type is selected based on the tooth’s condition, location, and your aesthetic and functional needs.
Who is a Candidate?
You may be an ideal candidate for Endo Post and Crown Build-Up if:
✅ You have a tooth that has undergone root canal treatment and lost significant structure.
✅ Your tooth is cracked, fractured, or weakened but still has a healthy root.
✅ You want a long-lasting solution to restore chewing and biting function.
✅ You wish to protect your natural tooth while improving its appearance.
✅ You are in good overall oral and general health to undergo a restorative procedure.
Consultation and Preparation
A detailed exam and digital imaging assess your tooth. The tooth is cleaned, shaped, and prepared, and a temporary crown may be placed for comfort and appearance.
✅ A thorough oral examination and digital imaging (X-rays or 3D scans) are performed to assess the tooth and root structure.
✅ Material options for posts and crowns are discussed to match your bite, strength, and aesthetic preferences.
✅ The tooth is cleaned and prepared; any decay is removed, and the canal is shaped for post placement.
✅ A temporary crown may be placed while the permanent crown is fabricated for a precise fit and natural appearance.
Recovery and Aftercare
After getting a crown, it’s normal to feel some mild sensitivity for a few days. Maintaining good oral hygiene, avoiding hard foods, and attending follow-ups will help your tooth stay strong, functional, and long-lasting.
✅ Some mild sensitivity or tenderness may occur for a few days.
✅ Avoid biting or chewing on hard foods until the permanent crown is fully settled.
✅ Maintain excellent oral hygiene — brushing, flossing, and gentle rinsing as instructed.
✅ Attend follow-up appointments to check the crown’s fit and function.
✅ With proper care, your restored tooth can last many years while remaining strong and functional.
✅ Avoid using the crowned tooth to open packages or bite very hard objects.
✅ Watch for any signs of discomfort, swelling, or unusual changes and report them to your dentist.
✅ Consider using a night guard if you grind your teeth to protect the crown.
