## TL;DR

This case report explores a new method for safely removing fiber posts in teeth using guided endodontic techniques.

## Contribution

The paper introduces guided endodontic static guides as a novel, precise method for fiber post removal.

## Key findings

- Guided techniques reduced the risk of root fractures and deviations during fiber post removal.
- The method proved effective for both long and short fiber posts.
- Clinical application of the technique was demonstrated in a real case.

## Abstract

Fiber posts are commonly used in restorative dentistry. However, their removal poses significant challenges, including the risk of root fractures, deviations, or perforations. Recently, guided endodontic techniques have emerged as a conservative and precise approach for fiber post removal, though clinical applications remain underexplored.
