Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The null-hypothesis was that there is no difference regarding survival rate between glass-fiber and titanium post restored endodontically treated abutment teeth with two or less remaining cavity walls.

Study Groups

glass fiber
prefabricated glass fiber reinforced composite post
posts: diameter of 1.4 mm; length of 13 mm adhesively luted within the root canal using self-adhesive resin cement and direct composite cores using an etch-and-rinse adhesive were built up crown preparation was performed, while the finishing line for the final restoration was set at least 2 mm apical the composite build-up in dentin to ensure a proper dentin ferrule design
titanium
prefabricated titanium post
posts: diameter of 1.4 mm; length of 13 mm adhesively luted within the root canal using self-adhesive resin cement and direct composite cores using an etch-and-rinse adhesive were built up crown preparation was performed, while the finishing line for the final restoration was set at least 2 mm apical the composite build-up in dentin to ensure a proper dentin ferrule design
