Split Post and Core:A Systematic Approach to Restore Grossly Decayed Teeth

A grossly decayed tooth sometime poses difficulty in fabrication of FDP, The post core is often required to gain support from the remaining tooth structure, In a multiischolar_mained tooth where more then one ischolar_main were used as support the path of insertion of post is difficult, in those cases a custom split post and core has to be fabricated. This case report describes a simple and scientific multidisciplinary approach towards management of grossly decayed tooth. The technique seems to be effective for extensively damaged teeth that lack sufficient tooth structure to create an adequate ferrule of 1.5 to 2 mm for the final crown.
