Management of fractured central incisor with richmond crown

Background: Endodontically treated teeth are more prone to fractures than the vital teeth. Fracture occurrence is more in posterior teeth than anterior teeth as the masticatory forces are higher and teeth are weaker. In the late 19th century, the “Richmond crown,” a single-piece post-retained crown with porcelain facing, was introduced to function as a bridge retainer, it incorporated a threaded tube in the canal with a screw retained crown. Objective: Prosthetic rehabilitation of fractured central incisor following endodontics treatment. Method: Endodontic treatment of the fractured tooth followed by post space preparation and finally rehabilitating with Richmond Crown to make it esthetically pleasing. Conclusion: Wherever remaining crown structure is insufficient to retain full coverage crown then post and core is necessary means to increase retention and resistance form of tooth.
