Posts, cores and patient care.
Custom cast posts and cores are quite acceptable, with proven usefulness. However, prefabricated posts and bonded composite or silver amalgam cores are replacing them rapidly. These posts and cores are faster and easier to construct than custom cast posts and cores, and they provide acceptable strength and serviceability at a relatively low cost to patients.
