At Aura Care Clinic, we offer advanced post and core dental treatment in SDA Market, Hauz Khas, South Delhi to restore severely damaged or root canal-treated teeth. If your tooth structure is weak and cannot support a crown, our expert dentists rebuild it using a strong post and core foundation.

What is Post and Core Treatment?

Post and core is a restorative dental procedure performed after a root canal treatment when there is insufficient natural tooth structure remaining.

  • A post is placed inside the root canal to provide support
  • A core is built around it to reconstruct the tooth
  • This structure then supports a dental crown
