A Progressive Treatment for the over-flared, over-prepared endodontically treated tooth

The accessory post technique creates a custom-fitted, well-bonded, integral post and core at a fraction of he cost of providing a cast post. The fiber post and accessory post combination technique with a compatible bonding and resin cement system which minimized the amount of residual composite in the canal has been shown to positively reinforce the remaining tooth structure. At the same time, this technique minimizes the risk for catastrophic root failure as seen with cast posts. It was done in a single appointment using a combination of techniques that are well-documented and known to the profession.
