Introduction: The continuous evolution of dental materials and techniques with a tendency towards more conservative procedures, makes it necessary to reevaluate the literature on the restorative management of endodontic teeth.

Objective: To analyze the different approaches and techniques to rehabilitate endodontic teeth such as the current need for the splint effect, the use of endocrowns, adhesive partial restorations and fiber-reinforced composites.

Methodology: Literature articles were searched in the virtual databases PubMed, Google Academic and EBSCO. The following terms were used as keywords in the search: "restoration of root filled teeth "adhesive dentistry", "endodontic teeth restoration" and "ferrule effect".

Results: The need for dental posts and the ferrule effect should not be standardized in each case at day. Indirect techniques such as endocrowns and adhesive partial restorations promote a less invasive approach with predictable results when well indicated and the use of fiber-reinforced resins open the outlook for the use of direct techniques to rehabilitate endodontically treated teeth.

Conclusion: Current dentistry, through the correct use of dental materials, promotes the use of new techniques that allow different scenarios to be addressed in different ways, without having to compromise dental structure.
