Observational Study The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the clinical performance and patient satisfaction of endodontically treated teeth restored with endocrown and overlay restorations using feldspathic ceramic blocks over a 2 to 4-year period. The main questions this study aims to answer are: What are the survival rates of endocrown and overlay restorations in posterior teeth after 2 to 4 years? Are there differences in biological and mechanical failure rates between endocrown and overlay restorations? How do the cemented surface areas correlate with clinical outcomes? Participants who previously received endocrown or overlay restorations will undergo a clinical evaluation, including radiographic imaging, to assess secondary caries and restoration integrity. They will also rate their satisfaction with their restorations through a standardized survey. Retrospective STL file analysis will be used to measure cemented surface areas of the restorations.
