Post and Core

A procedure performed on a tooth that has had a Root Canal but is too damaged to hold a crown on its own.

Why It Matters

Think of it like a foundation for a house. If a tooth is broken off at the gumline, the Crown has nothing to grip. The Post & Core creates a "stump" for the crown to sit on.
