Integrated approach to endodontics and adhesive restoration of lower molar
Keywords:
endodontics, adhesive restoration, lower molar, conservative treatment, clinical evidenceAbstract
Comprehensive treatment of lower molars with pulpal involvement requires evidence-based planning and clinical precision. The objective of this research is to present a case of endodontic therapy and adhesive restoration in a lower molar affected by deep caries, emphasizing early diagnosis, operative field control and an appropriate biomaterial selection. A literature review is included, focusing on rotary instrumentation techniques, active irrigation, three-dimensional obturation and current adhesive protocols. The analysis underlines the importance of preserving residual tooth structure and ensuring long-term functional and aesthetic success. The combination of theory and clinical practice provides a minimally invasive, predictable and scientifically based intervention.
