Post and Core treatment is an advanced dental technique used to rebuild teeth that have been damaged, most especially when the remnants of the tooth cannot support the crown. This procedure is mainly done after root canal treatment to restore the tooth’s structural integrity to support a crown or a bridge. At Dr Trupti’s Dental Destination, our speciality is dental procedures to maintain the strength and cosmetics of dental prosthetic works. Our duly acknowledged specialist, Dr. Trupti Sathe, uses only updated materials and methods while working to ensure the actual outcome while making it as natural as possible.
What is Post & Core Treatment?
Post and Core treatment is the two-part restoration procedure usually used when a tooth has hardly any bulk to support a crown. The components include:
Post – A fine member inserted into the root canal to provide support.
Core – A repair material used on the post to support the dental crown.
It strengthens the tooth’s structure, reducing the chances of it breaking or deteriorating.
When is Post & Core Treatment Required?
Post and Core treatment might be necessary in the following circumstances:
- You have one or more teeth that are either decayed, damaged by an accident or a crack.
- Far more of the tooth may be absent in the mouth than could offer adequate support for a crown.
- You have been previously treated for RCT, and you are required to strengthen the existing tooth.
- You need a dental crown or bridge, but the tooth body remains insufficient.
Types of Post & Core Procedure
- Prefabricated Post & Core
These posts are manufactured and ready for use, made of steel, alloy, titanium, or fibre resin. They embed the post directly into the root canal, permitting a faster procedure, and the crown could be put immediately. This technique is ideal for cases where the tooth roots have sufficient room for expansion.
- Cast Post & Core
This type of dental restoration is prepared for a specific situation using dental casting materials. Use it when prefabricated posts are impossible because of the root structure involved. They are mainly made for multi-rooted teeth, such as the molars, providing more strength and sturdiness to the crown.
At Dr Trupti’s Dental Destination, we shall evaluate your tooth’s state and working life expectations when advising on the best Post and Core plan.
Post & Core Treatment Procedure
The following strategies are followed to ensure that the patient receives a comfortable and successful treatment:
- Evaluation & X-ray Examination – Assessing the condition of the root canal and the available tooth structure.
- Local Anesthesia – Ensuring a pain-free procedure.
- Root Canal Preparation – Recounting and structuring the inner surface of the root canal to place the post.
- Post Placement – Immediately placing a stock or a specially built post.
- Core Build-Up – The reconstructing tooth structure from the remaining tooth tissue or a dental composite material.

This rigorous process helps make the tooth strong and durable for many years.
