Objective: The tooth weakens due to removal of hard tissue during an endodontic procedure. Many dentists find it difficult to choose between different coronal restorations after root canal treatment (RCT). Studies show that the coronal restoration may affect the endodontic prognosis. This student-based study had three aims. (1) Examine the choice of coronal restoration of endodontically treated teeth at a Scandinavian dental school, (2) examine the survival of these restorations and (3) evaluate the influence of the coronal restoration on the outcome of the RCT. Material and methods: Radiographic and clinical examination was performed on 127 posterior teeth. The quality of the root canal treatment and the periapical status (PAI-index) were evaluated. Results: 43.8% of the teeth were restored with an indirect coronal restoration and 47.2% with a direct coronal restoration. The period from finished root canal treatment until placement of a permanent coronal restoration was significantly longer for an indirect restoration than a direct restoration. The teeth treated with a PAI score of 1 and 2 following pulpectomy, necrotic pulp treatment and endodontic retreatment was 93.8%, 82.6% and 69.4%, respectively.Conclusion: There was no significant association between choice of coronal restoration and PAI-score.
