Endocrown for an Endodontically Treated First Molar in a Child with Malocclusion: A Case Report.

Providing endodontically treated young permanent first molars in children with esthetic full coverage crowns may be a challenge especially if these crowns will be used later for bonding of orthodontic tubes or brackets. Yes, there is ready made zirconia crowns but still the bonding with zirconia may be an issue of controversy. This case reported using lithium disilicate endocrown as an esthetic full coverage permanent crown in an endodontically treated young permanent molar in child with posterior cross bite that need orthodontic correction. With this type of crowns the patient is provided with an esthetic crown without reducing the axial tooth surfaces and in the same time leaving the buccal surface free for bonding of orthodontic tubes. More ever the lithium disilicate material itself is an etchable material to which the tubes can be bonded too. © 2020. All Rights Reserved.
