Obviously, it's a sin to do a full coverage crown. Jaz's Introduction:And post are out of the equation. And if you have to use a post, you're going to use a fiber post, not a cast post. Well, this sounds very familiar, right? This sounds like the way that we've been heading, but Pasquale Venuti offers some different and alternative points of view that I think are very much worth listening.

Now, I talk about this a bit more towards the end of the episode, but Pasquale will do this all justice. Now, the Protrusive Dental Pearl I have for you before we join the main episode is something that I've ...
