The modern approach to the restoration of non-vital tooth
The adhesive revolution completely changed the restorative dentistry, which is now mainly based on bonded direct and indirect rehabilitations over remaining tooth structures. Even within the endodontically treated tooth, which is weakened and structurally altered, the bonded approach is today considered the gold standard thanks to the reduced amount of hard tissue removal. The improved knowledge on adhesive systems stability, on composite resins and ceramic materials push the clinician towards less invasive treatments based on direct and indirect adhesive partial restorations. Based on these consideration, today the problem is to define clear clinical indications for the proper rehabilitation of the endodontically treated tooth, either in anterior either in posterior regions. Based on research findings and clinical experience, the lecture will try to clarify the best adhesive approach in the post-endo rehabilitation, looking to the next future improvements: the digital adhesive dentistry.
