ABSTRACT
The acid-etch-composite resin technique is used to retain a provisional restoration during the course of endodontic treatment. As described, the use of a gutta percha cone during the buildup and bonding to adjacent teeth provides the following: (1) good esthetics during endodontic treatment, (2) good support for rubber dam placement, (3) good entry to the canal, (4) good coronal seal for medication within the canal, and (5) good function as required by the provisional crown.

Two methods have been described for dealing with fractured or underextended posts in endodontically treated teeth. They seem to be adequate in preserving teeth that might otherwise have been lost.

A simplified technique for creating an access to the root canal during the coronal buildup of badly broken-down teeth provides a retentive,functional, and esthetic seal without the complications of preparing the access cavity through the provisional restoration.
