Key
Clinical Message:
This case report demonstrates the effective use of short fiber-reinforced composite and glass fiber post for reconstructing the foundation of a compromised maxillary right first incisor. A conservative approach involving root canal treatment and restoration with zirconia crown showed stability over a six-month follow-up without adverse events.
Abstract:
This case report describes the use of short fiber-reinforced composite and fiber post to construct a tooth foundation in a patient with a severely compromised tooth structure. The patient, a 31-year-old female, presented with a large carious lesion on his maxillary right first premolar. After careful evaluation and root canal treatment, a conservative approach was chosen, and the constructing tooth foundation was treated with a fiber post and short fiber-reinforced composite. After abutment construction, the restoration was performed with zirconia crown. The patient was followed up for six months, and no adverse events were noted. The use of short fiber-reinforced composite and fiber post appears to be a viable treatment option for restoring a compromised tooth structure with minimal invasiveness.
