Treatment of "non-restorable" teeth. A case report.
The purpose of this article is to present a case report of the dental care for permanent teeth that were originally considered "non-restorable". The temporary placement of stainless steel crowns was completed, followed by traditional endodontic therapy. The crowns were used as build-up matrices, access being prepared in the occlusal of the crown. Glass ionomer silver was then placed, followed by marginal finishing. Although this report is an isolated case, and is considered as temporary treatment, there may be indications to consider this technique for clinical care, on an individual basis.
