Clinically enhancing the connection between endodontic and restorative treatment for better case prognosis.
This article focuses on the endodontic-restorative interface. The reduction of bacterial contamination via chemical-mechanical debridement during conventional endodontic treatment, in conjunction with canal obturation and timely restorative treatment using a rubber dam to prevent the microbial recontamination of the canal system, will significantly improve the clinical outcome.
