why did cement not adhere to molar?
existing decay beneath
sectioning and extracting molar and making partial
nesbit or single distal extension
remove and say – at risk for aspirtion / choking on this with a medically comprimised patient

short post
force of occlusion can force out
percision attachment partial? fail why
intra coronal retention on tooth with no abutment - cantilever / pontic – will rock out of mouth every time
