Q

What is another consideration when treatment planning a post?

A

Retrievability during RETX. Ceramic and Zirconium are difficult to retrieve, while metals are easier

17
Q

What is the post design for a thin rooted tooth with delicate morphology?

A

Tapered post

18
Q

Why are custom cast post and cores not as favorable beyond the 2 appointments and lab fee?

A

Temporization does not prevent contamination

19
Q

Why are resin cements preferred for luting the post in the canal?

A
  1. Increase retention
  2. Leak less
  3. Short term strengthening
20
Q

What is the purpose of the core?

A

Retain the crown

21
Q

What are the principles for clinical success of endo treated teeth?

A
  1. Avoid bacterial contamination of root canal system
  2. Provide cuspal coverage for posterior teeth
  3. Preserve radicular and coronal tooth structure
  4. Use posts with adequate strength in thin diameter
  5. Provide adequate post length for retention
  6. Maximize resistance form including an adequate ferrule
  7. Use posts that are retrievable
22
Q

What type of post should you not use because of inadequate strength and difficult to retrieve?

A

Titanium

23
Q

What posts are unretrievable or difficult to retrieve?

A
  1. Titanium alloys
  2. Active threaded posts
  3. Ceramic and Zirconium
24
Q

The current trend in clinical practice is what type of post?

A

Fiber

25
Q

Which are easier to remove: carbon fiber or ceramic posts?

A

Carbon fiber

26
Q

Are carbon fiber posts radiolucent or radiopaque?

A

Radiolucent

27
Q

Which types of posts are difficult to retrieve?

A

Ceramic and Zirconium

28
Q

Which posts cannot be etched?

A

Zirconium

29
Q

Which are stronger: ceramic or metal posts?

A

Metal

30
Q

Which types of posts have a modulus similar to that of dentin?

A

Carbon fiber

31
Q

Are carbon fiber posts radiopaque or radiolucent?

A

Radioluceny

32
Q

Are the physical and mechanical properties of dentin the same after root canal therapy as they were before?

A

Yes. No change.

33
Q

What is true of micro leakage?

A
  1. Bacterial coronal leakage can reach the apex in a matter of days
  2. Endotoxins can reach the apex sooner than bacterial leakage
34
Q

True or False: The quality of restorative dentistry performed after root canal therapy impacts the long term prognosis of the tooth.

A

True

35
Q

True or False: if there is a delay in placing a definitive restoration, an intra-coronal barrier should be placed using davit or IRM?

A

True (I guess?)

36
Q

Does increasing the post diameter lead to excessive removal of radicular dentin?

A

Yes

37
Q

Which are more retentive: parallel posts or tapered posts?

A

Parallel

38
Q

Which are more retentive: active or passive?

A

Active

39
Q

True or False: The clinician who performs the endodontic treatment should prepare the post space?

A

True
