Complicated isolation for post buildup

Subject: [roots] Complicated isolation for post build-up yesterday

Post/core build-ups are an extension of the endodontic treatment.
Aseptic isolation is important.  Here’s a fiber post build-up with the
Dycal-enhanced rubber dam isolation.   These are the types of cases I constantly
retreat if not isolated properly.   I feel confident I can win that argument
against  who disagree with me wanting to use a more convenient device.
I’m not sure I can win the argument that the fiberpost I placed is a better structural
build-up than a cast core like Khademi would have placed, but I can go there too.  - Terry
