Abstract

This paper highlights the fact that many anterior teeth requiring restoration are severely weakened, having wide flared canal spaces and thin dentinal walls, and are at a high risk of getting fractured. An 20 year old female patient reported with the complaint of unesthetic smile due to fracture and discolored tooth. She gave a history of trauma around 4-5 years back. This case was managed by the customization of fiber reinforced posts which has made a great impact on esthetics and redistribution of stresses along the radicular space and dentin tissue conservation. Thus modern techniques reflect a change from what was once considered prosthodontic procedure to one which marries endodontic principles with sound understanding of mechanical objectives.
