ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of IPSe. max press ceramic endocrowns being used in preserving endodontically treated molars. Methods Forty-five endodontically treated molars were selected from 45 patients in this study. All the molars had been endodontically treated and performed with ultrasonic scaling. After 1-2 weeks, the crowns and pulp chambers were prepared. The impressions and master casts were gained and IPSe. max press ceramic endocrowns were fabricated in the lab. The endocrowns were cemented with resin cement. The further consultations were offered to these molars after 6 months and 1 year. The difference of sulcus bleeding index among these endodontically treated molars and the same teeth in the opposite sides was compared. Results In these cases, 100 % of endocrowns were
