Abstract:

Grossly decayed teeth are a frequent occurrence in young patients and are mainly associated with excessive intake of sweets. A grossly decayed posterior molar poses problems in restoring like multiple and bifurcated roots, access and visibility and at times inadequate crown height. We present a case of a young adult female patient who wished to have a fixed partial denture for her mandibular kennedy class 3 partial edentulous situation. Gross destruction of molar contraindicated its use to act as a supporting abutment for a fixed partial denture. A uniquely designed foundation restoration in the form of a split cast post core was fabricated to save the tooth and fulfill its role as an abutment for a four unit fixed partial denture. The post core was designed to accommodate a hole within it, through which a pin would run to engage a differently inclined root canal. The entire fixed partial denture was fabricated using porcelain fused to metal restorations. The patient was highly satisfied with the treatment outcome.
