title: A modified indirect cast post and core technique.
abstract: An indirect post and core technique in which the core is waxed and invested with the die has been described. The post and core are cast directly into the invested die, which has the advantage of an accurate casting of the post preparation obtained with less laboratory time and without the disadvantages of retrieving an intact wax pattern. This technique is particularly suited for long, narrow post preparations; short preparations where precise fit is necessary for retention; and multiple adjacent post preparations.
