The development of chairside CAD\/CAM (Computer Aided Design and Manufacturing) technology has made it possible to carry out indirect restoration of endodontically treated teeth in a single session. This study aimed to evaluate the long-term outcome of a full pulpotomy with Biodentine\u2122 immediately covered with a chairside CAD\/CAM endocrown on teeth affected by pulpitis and deep carious lesions. The investigation involved a cohort of 30 molars that were treated by pulpotomy and CAD\/CAM endocrown. Clinical and radiological examinations were scheduled at 1, 6, and 12 months postoperatively. Overall, all treatments were effective at any time during the follow-up. The results of this study need to be confirmed with a longer-term follow-up to allow for comparison with the literature. This original combination of endodontic and restorative treatments provides an Endo-prosthetic continuum in a single session, with the objective of long-term success in terms of tooth health.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph17176340","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,31]],"date-time":"2020-08-31T08:11:19Z","timestamp":1598861479000},"page":"6340","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["A Combination of Full Pulpotomy and Chairside CAD\/CAM Endocrown to Treat Teeth with Deep Carious Lesions and Pulpitis in a Single Session: A Preliminary Study"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Marie-Laure","family":"Munoz-Sanchez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre de Recherche en Odontologie Clinique (CROC), Universit\u00e9 Clermont Auvergne, F-63000 Clermont-Ferrand, France"},{"name":"CHU Clermont-Ferrand, Service d\u2019Odontologie, F-63003 Clermont-Ferrand, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Natacha","family":"Linas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre de Recherche en Odontologie Clinique (CROC), Universit\u00e9 Clermont Auvergne, F-63000 Clermont-Ferrand, France"},{"name":"CHU Clermont-Ferrand, Service d\u2019Odontologie, F-63003 Clermont-Ferrand, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4050-6308","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nicolas","family":"Decerle","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre de Recherche en Odontologie Clinique (CROC), Universit\u00e9 Clermont Auvergne, F-63000 Clermont-Ferrand, France"},{"name":"CHU Clermont-Ferrand, Service d\u2019Odontologie, F-63003 Clermont-Ferrand, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7022-469X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Emmanuel","family":"Nicolas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre de Recherche en Odontologie Clinique (CROC), Universit\u00e9 Clermont Auvergne, F-63000 Clermont-Ferrand, France"},{"name":"CHU Clermont-Ferrand, Service d\u2019Odontologie, F-63003 Clermont-Ferrand, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8173-2606","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Martine","family":"Hennequin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre de Recherche en Odontologie Clinique (CROC), Universit\u00e9 Clermont Auvergne, F-63000 Clermont-Ferrand, France"},{"name":"CHU Clermont-Ferrand, Service d\u2019Odontologie, F-63003 Clermont-Ferrand, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pierre-Yves","family":"Cousson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre de Recherche en Odontologie Clinique (CROC), Universit\u00e9 Clermont Auvergne, F-63000 Clermont-Ferrand, France"},{"name":"CHU Clermont-Ferrand, Service d\u2019Odontologie, F-63003 Clermont-Ferrand, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"58","DOI":"10.1177\/0022034516639271","article-title":"Managing carious lesions: Consensus recommendations on carious tissue removal","volume":"28","author":"Schwendicke","year":"2016","journal-title":"Adv.
