Abstract

Restorative dentistry is essential to provide mechanical sealing and to avoid the recontamination of the root canal system. The procedure should also restore form, function, and esthetics. A wide variety of restorative materials (direct and/or indirect) and protocols are available to restore endodontically treated teeth. For a successful and predictable restorative treatment outcome, it is imperative that the selected restorative material present properties (mechanical, physical, chemical, and biological) that are similar to enamel and/or dentin.
