In many cases, a telescopic crown (TC) can only be refitted after post and core (PC) treatment due to an insufficient retention surface. Furthermore, if the root canal has an elliptic cross-sectional area or the coronal defect is severe, customized cast post and cores (CPCs) are still the therapy of choice. Nevertheless, the disadvantage of CPCs is longer chair time due to the need for a second appointment for insertion. In addition, the mechanical properties of the alloy do not match with dentin, leading to a higher risk of root fracture. In such cases, CAD/CAM PCs fabricated in a fully digital chairside workflow can accelerate the treatment and decrease the risk of root fractures by using materials with matching mechanical properties.</p><p><strong>Materials and methods: </strong>The case series presented in this article includes 12 patients who were treated with TCDs and experienced abutment tooth fracture that required PC treatment to refit TCs.
