Cost-effectiveness of Different Post-retained Restorations

Dentists can choose between metal and fiber  post systems to provide post-retained restorations. The risk of tooth loss and other complications differs between different post systems, as do the initial treatment costs. We aimed to assess the cost-effectiveness of (1) cast metal (MC), (2) preformed metal (MP), (3) glass fiber (GF), and (4) ca rbon fiber (CF) post-retained restorations.
