Abstract
Background The use of endodontic files multiple times can cause fatigue in them and can lead to their separation in the root canal. The purpose of this study was to achieve a reduction in cyclic fatigue stress in a newly introduced nickel-titanium (NiTi) rotary single-file system. The study aimed to determine whether cryotherapy could help reduce cyclic fatigue and stress on rotary files after multiple uses during root canal treatment. By utilizing finite element analysis (FEA), the study provided a comprehensive evaluation of how cryotherapy might enhance the performance and longevity of these instruments, ultimately benefiting patients undergoing root canal therapy. Methodology This in vitro comparative study used scanned plastic teeth with genuine root canal anatomy and FEA to investigate the mechanical response to cyclic fatigue and stress of NiTi rotary file system. The endodontic file (Procodile, Komet) was created through the complex root canal geometries, for which mandibular tooth models were scanned and created by a computer software (IDEAS11 NX; UGSiPlano, TX). The total sample size was 34, divided into two groups, with each group comprising 17 participants (n = 17). The results were analyzed by analysis of variance (ANOVA) test. Results The results revealed that the p-values were more than 0.525, indicating no significant reduction in cyclic fatigue when the NiTi rotary single-file system (Procodile, Komet) was treated with cryotherapy (eight cycles). However, stress reduction was observed in the NiTi rotary single-file system when it was treated with cryotherapy. Conclusion This in vitro comparative study concluded that cryotherapy helps to reduce the stress of NiTi rotary single-file system. Nonetheless, more research is needed to understand the clinical significance of the findings of the current in vitro study.

Abstract
To evaluate the effect of remaining pericervical dentin (PCD) on the biomechanical behavior of endocrown-restored molars with different materials, six three-dimensional finite element (FE) models were reconstructed with different thicknesses and heights of pulp-chamber lateral dentinal wall (PCLDW). IPS Empress 2, In-Ceram Zirconia, and Lava Ultimate were selected as the materials. Compared with the Lava Ultimate FE models, the maximum tensile stress in the FE models using ceramics was higher in the endocrown and lower in the PCD surrounding it, and the overall failure probabilities with different PCLDW thicknesses and heights were similar, ranging from 9.8% to 12.9% under the normal lateral masticatory force, which were lower than the FE models using Lava Ultimate (ranging from 13.4% to 15.1%). Considering the bonding properties of ceramics, endocrown-restored molars using etchable lithium disilicate-reinforced glass ceramic exhibit superior longevity due to the stress shielding effect, regardless of the thickness and height of PCLDW.

Abstract
Recent biomechanical studies have focused on studying the response of teeth before and after different treatments under functional and parafunctional loads. These studies often involve experimental and/or finite element analysis (FEA). Current loading and boundary conditions may not entirely represent the real condition of the tooth in clinical situations. The importance of homogenizing both sample characterization and boundary conditions definition for future dental biomechanical studies is highlighted. The mechanical properties of dental structural tissues are presented, along with the effect of functional and parafunctional loads and other environmental and biological parameters that may influence tooth survival. A range of values for Young's modulus, Poisson ratio, compressive strength, threshold stress intensity factor and fracture toughness are provided for enamel and dentin; as well as Young's modulus and Poisson ratio for the PDL, trabecular and cortical bone. Angles, loading magnitude and frequency are provided for functional and parafunctional loads. The environmental and physiological conditions (age, gender, tooth, humidity, etc.), that may influence tooth survival are also discussed. Oversimplifications of biomechanical models could end up in results that divert from the natural behavior of teeth. Experimental validation models with close-to-reality boundary conditions should be developed to compare the validity of simplified models.

Abstract
The aim is to evaluate the mechanical properties of the composite and ceramic based indirect restorative materials used in dental treatments with scanning nanoindentation test (NT). Finite element analysis (FEA) was applied to investigate the stress distribution. Four hybrid composite materials; Indirect resin composite (IRC), Resin nanoceramic (RNC), Polymer infiltrated ceramic (PIC) and Zirconia-reinforced lithium-di-silicate (ZRC) were divided into two subgroups for NT (n = 20) and fracture test (n = 40). Statistical analyses were performed with independent t-test, ANOVA and post-hoc Tukey tests (p ≤ 0.05). The highest hardness, elasticity and fracture toughness were observed in ZRC (p = 0.001). Frequency of vertical root fractures in RNC and IRC were statistically lower than ZRC (p = 0.032). Reinforced CAD-CAM ceramics revealed higher mechanical properties compared with IRC materials. The FEA model for fracture mechanism of RNC demonstrated lowest stress values and uniform stress distribution amongst all groups, while ZRC and PIC presented the highest fracture toughness.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The influence of different restorative materials, the divergence angle, and the preparation design of the pulp chamber floor in endocrowns on stress distribution is unclear. PURPOSE The purpose of this finite element analysis study was to evaluate the stress distribution and maximum von Mises stress values in endocrown restorations and remaining teeth. MATERIAL AND METHODS An endodontically treated first mandibular molar was prepared with 2-mm occlusal reduction, a butt-joint margin, and a mesial box with a 4-mm buccolingual extension to receive an endocrown restoration. The model was then scanned, and the exported standard tessellation language file was designed according to the anatomic references by using a computer-aided design software program. The reference model was duplicated, and 27 variations were formed: restorations made of IPS e.max, Vitablocs MarkII, and Vita Enamic, as well as different divergence angles of 6, 12, and 16 degrees prepared with 3 variations of pulp chamber floor designs, keeping the natural form, adding a 1-mm glass ionomer pulp chamber base, and adding a 2-mm extension into the distal canal. Stress distribution under axial loading and maximum von Mises stress values were analyzed and calculated by using the Ansys software program. RESULTS Endocrown restoration presented the lowest von Mises stress values when a 6-degree divergence angle was used with Vitablocs MarkII. However, in other layers such as enamel, resin cement, and pulpal floor, the lowest von Mises stress values were observed in IPS e.max restorative material when the divergence angle was increased to 16 degrees. No difference was found in the stress distribution pattern and maximum von Mises stress values in the alveolar bone or periodontal ligament. CONCLUSIONS Endocrowns fabricated with lithium disilicate ceramics without intraradicular extension exhibited lower stresses on tooth structure. An increase in the divergence angle improved the stress distribution on tooth structure; however, sound dental tissue should not be removed to achieve better stress distribution.

Abstract
The study aimed to evaluate the effects of fibers insertion and restorative material type on the stress distribution in endocrowns with finite element analysis. Five 3D models of first mandibular molars were created and restored as follows: (1) IN: intact tooth, (2) IPS-E: tooth restored with lithium disilicat ceramic endocrowns, (3) C-E: tooth restored with composite endocrowns, (4) IPS-E + F: lithium disilicate ceramic endocrowns + fiber, (5) C-E + F: composite endocrowns + fiber. Vertical masticatory load was imitated with finite element analysis. The equivalent stress of von Mises failure criterion (mvM) was calculated. The maximum mvM stress, enamel/crown, dentin and cement were compared among models and strength of the materials. Endocrowns presented a lower mvM stress level than intact tooth. In IPS-E, the mvM stress values in the crown and dentin were higher than C-E, while the mvM stress values in cement were higher in C-E group. Fibers insertion did not affect the stress level of IPS-E and C-E groups. In IPS model, fiber showed more stress absorption than C-E. The restorative material type changed the stress distribution of endocrown restorations. The fiber application did not affect the stress distribution in either endocrown group. But, more stress absorption was observed in fiber under IPS-E than C-E.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the effect of NaOCl (5%) and saline (control) irrigant delivery at different temperatures and durations on pre-load and cyclic-loading tooth-surface-strain (TSS) on anatomically different premolars. METHODOLOGY Single-rooted premolars (n = 36), root-canal-prepared in standard manner, were randomly allocated to six irrigation groups: (A1) NaOCl-21 °C; (A2) NaOCl-60 °C; (A3) saline-21 °C then NaOCl-21 °C; (A4) saline-60 °C then NaOCl-21 °C; (A5) saline-21 °C then NaOCl-60 °C; (A6) saline-60 °C then NaOCl-60 °C. A1-2 received nine 10-min irrigation periods (IP) with NaOCl; A3-6 received nine 10-min IP with saline, followed by 9 IP with NaOCl at different temperature combinations. Premolars (n = 56) with single, fused or double roots prepared by standard protocol, were stratified and randomly allocated to: (B1) saline-21 °C; (B2) saline-80 °C; (B3) NaOCl-21 °C; (B4) NaOCl-80 °C. TSS (μє) was recorded pre-irrigation, post-irrigation and pre-load for each IP and during cyclic loading 2 min after each IP, over 30-274 min, using strain-gauges. Generalised linear mixed models were used for analysis. RESULTS Baseline TSS in double-rooted premolars was significantly (p=0.001) lower than in single/fused-rooted-premolars; and affected by mesial-wall-thickness (p=0.005). There was significant increase in loading-TSS (μє) after NaOCl-21 °C irrigation (p=0.01) but decrease after NaOCl-60 °C irrigation (p=0.001). TSS also increased significantly (p = 0.005) after Saline-80 °C irrigation. Pre-load "strain-shift" was noted only upon first saline delivery but every-time with NaOCl. Strain-shift negatively influenced loading-TSS after saline or NaOCl irrigation (A3-6) but was only significant for saline-21 °C. CONCLUSIONS Tooth anatomy significantly affected its strain characteristics, exhibiting limits within which strain changes occurred. Intra-canal introduction of saline or NaOCl caused non-random strain shifts without loading. Irrigation with NaOCl-21 °C increased loading tooth strain, as did saline-80 °C or NaOCl-80 °C but NaOCl-60 °C decreased it. A "chain-link" model was proposed to explain the findings and tooth biomechanics.

Abstract
Material characteristics can change significantly with increasing chewing velocity. As these in-vitro examinations are very time-consuming and cost-intensive, the application of finite element analysis (FEA) offers a suitable alternative for predicting the material behavior of complex specimen geometries under clinically relevant loads. Although FEA is applied within numerous dental investigations, there are only few studies available in which a nonlinear FEA is validated with real experiments. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to predict the mechanical behavior of a clinically close three-unit temporary bridge composed of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) in the left upper jaw with nonlinear FEA and to verify the prediction through validation experiments. In conclusion, simplifying assumptions of linear elastic material properties for polymeric materials should be avoided in FEA studies, because rate dependencies, stress relaxation and plastic flow are not considered. Additionally, precise preliminary investigations for material characterization are necessary.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Computer modeling of lower mandible physiology remains challenging because prescribing realistic material characteristics and boundary conditions from medical scans requires advanced equipment and skill sets. The objective of this study is to provide a framework that could reduce simplifications made and inconsistency (in terms of geometry, materials, and boundary conditions) among further studies on the topic. METHODS The OpenMandible framework offers: 1) the first publicly available multiscale model of the mandible developed by combining cone beam computerized tomography (CBCT) and μCT imaging modalities, and 2) a C++ software tool for the generation of simulation-ready models (tet4 and hex8 elements). In addition to the application of conventional (Neumann and Dirichlet) boundary conditions, OpenMandible introduces a novel geodesic wave propagation - based approach for incorporating orthotropic micromechanical characteristics of cortical bone, and a unique algorithm for modeling muscles as uniformly directed vectors. The base intact model includes the mandible (spongy and compact bone), 14 teeth (comprising dentin, enamel, periodontal ligament, and pulp), simplified temporomandibular joints, and masticatory muscles (masseter, temporalis, medial, and lateral pterygoid). RESULTS The complete source code, executables, showcases, and sample data are freely available on the public repository: https://github.com/ArsoVukicevic/OpenMandible. It has been demonstrated that by slightly editing the baseline model, one can study different "virtual" treatments or diseases, including tooth restoration, placement of implants, mandible bone degradation, and others. SIGNIFICANCE OpenMandible eases the community to undertake a broad range of studies on the topic, while increasing their consistency and reproducibility. At the same time, the needs for dedicated equipment and skills for developing realistic simulation models are significantly reduced.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to investigate the effect of different occlusal relationships on skull structural and mechanical behaviors through simulation of chewing food. METHODS Finite element (FE) skull models of occlusion for Class I, end-on Class II, and full-cusp Class II were generated. End-on Class II and full-cusp Class II were chosen as mild and severe Class II occlusions, respectively. A simplified food bolus was introduced between the upper and lower dentition of the right molars. Chewing food was simulated in the skulls by moving the mandible. An experiment was conducted to measure strains at selective locations and compared them to the analytical results for validation. RESULTS In the early stages of mandibular movement, masticatory forces predicted from the skull models without food were lower than the skull models with food but increased drastically after occluding teeth full enough. As a result, the relationship between masticatory force and mandible movement shows that there is no significant difference between the skull models with food and without food in the range of human masticatory force, approximately 250 N. In all the cases of skulls including a food bolus, stress was similarly propagated from the mandible to the maxilla and concentrated in the same regions, including the mandibular notch and alveolar bone around the lower molars. CONCLUSION It is predicted that there is no significant difference of bite force-mandible movement relationships and stress distributions of skull and teeth, between end-on Class II and full-cusp Class II models. When simulating chewing activities on candy and carrot, it is also found that there is no difference of masticatory performance between Class II occlusions, from structural as well as mechanical perspectives.

Abstract
To study the effect of central retainer shape and abduction angle during tooth preparation on stress distribution in endocrown-restored molars via finite element (FE) analysis, we constructed five FE models with different central retainer shapes and abduction angles. Under an oblique load, the distributions of maximum tensile stress in cervical dentin around the endocrown and on the cement layer, as well as maximum shear stress on the cement layer, were more balanced in the FE model in which the central retainer shape was generated based on the anatomical form of the pulp chamber. Moreover, there were no differences in stress distributions among FE models with different abduction angles. Therefore, the shape of the central retainer should be designed on the basis of the anatomical form of the pulp chamber; abduction angle during tooth preparation does not influence the repair effect of endocrown-restored mandibular molars.

Abstract
Background Although biomimetic material has become increasingly popular in dental cosmetology nowadays, it remains unclear how it would affect the restored teeth during chewing. It is necessary to study the influence of biomimetic material on stress distribution in the restored teeth. Methods Eight three-dimensional finite element (FE) models were constructed and divided into two groups. Group 1 included the FE model of intact molar, and the FE models of inlay-restored molars fabricated from IPS e.max CAD, Lava Ultimate and biomimetic materials individually. Enamel was considered a homogeneous material. Group 2 included the FE models of intact molar and molars restored with inlays using IPS e.max CAD, Lava Ultimate and biomimetic materials individually, considering enamel as an inhomogeneous material. Results In Group 1, compared with that in the intact molar, the maximum tensile stress (MTS) in the occlusal grooves decreased in the inlay-restored molars fabricated from IPS e.max CAD and was concentrated on the cavity floor at the buccal side in the inner dentin around inlay. When Lava Ultimate was selected, MTS decreased in the occlusal grooves and on the cavity floor but increased in the lateral walls. In the restored molar using biomimetic material, the MTS on the cavity floor was distributed more evenly than that in the molar using IPS e.max CAD, and no obvious changes were noted in the lateral walls. The same changes were observed in Group 2. No differences in the stress distribution pattern were noted among the FE models in Groups 1 and 2. Conclusions Molars restored with inlays fabricated from biomimetic material exhibit a more uniform stress distribution in the dentin around restoration. The consideration of enamel as a homogeneous tissue is acceptable for analyzing the maximum principal stress distribution in the inlay-restored molar.

Abstract
SUMMARY
Purpose:
The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the resistance and patterns of fracture of endodontically treated maxillary premolars (ETPs) restored with different methods.
Methods and Materials:
Mesio-occluso-distal cavities were prepared in 50 extracted caries-free human maxillary premolars after endodontic treatment. The teeth were divided into five groups (n=10), according to the restorative method. G1: intact teeth (control group); G2: conventional composite resin; G3: conventional composite resin with a horizontal glass fiber post inserted between buccal and palatal walls; G4: bulk-fill flowable and bulk-fill restorative composites; and G5: ceramic inlay. For direct restorations, Filtek Z350 XT, Filtek Bulk Fill Flowable Restorative, and Filtek Bulk Fill Posterior Restorative were used. Indirect restorations were fabricated from a pressable lithium disilicate glass-ceramic (IPS e-max Press) and adhesively cemented (RelyX Ultimate). All specimens were subjected to thermocycling (5°C to 55°C/5000 cycles) and additionally submitted to cyclic loading 50,000 times in an Electro-Mechanical Fatigue Machine. Next, the specimens were subjected to a compressive load at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min until fracture. The fractured specimens were analyzed to determine the fracture pattern using a stereomicroscope, and then representative specimens were carbon coated to allow for the studying of the fracture surface under scanning electron microscopy. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to compare fracture resistance of the groups. The results of fracture patterns were submitted to the Fisher exact test (α=0.05).
Results:
All specimens survived fatigue. Mean (standard deviation) failure loads (N) for groups were as follows: G1: 949.6 (331.5); G2: 999.6 (352.5); G3: 934.5 (233.6); G4: 771.0 (147.4); and G5: 856.7 (237.5). The lowest fracture resistance was recorded for G4, and the highest ones were recorded for G2, followed by that of G1 and G3. One-way ANOVA did not reveal significant differences between groups (p>0.05). The highest repairable fracture rates were observed in G1 (100%) and G3 (80%).
Conclusions:
ETPs restored with conventional composite resin with or without horizontal fiber post, bulk-fill composite, and ceramic inlay showed fracture resistance similar to that of sound teeth. Conventional composite resin restorations exhibited the highest prevalence of unrepairable fractures, and the insertion of a horizontal fiber post decreased this prevalence. Intact teeth showed 100% of repairable fractures. It is difficult to extrapolate the results directly to a clinical situation due to the limitations of this study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to estimate the fatigue life of premolars restored with two dental ceramics, lithium disilicate (LD) and polymer infiltrated ceramic (PIC) using the numerical method and compare it with the published in vitro data. METHODS A premolar restored with full-coverage crown was digitized. The volumetric shape of tooth tissues and crowns were created in Mimics®. They were transferred to IA-FEMesh for mesh generation and the model was analyzed with Abaqus. By combining the stress distribution results with fatigue stress-life (S-N) approach, the lifetime of restored premolars was predicted. RESULTS The predicted lifetime was 1,231,318 cycles for LD with fatigue load of 1400N, while the one for PIC was 475,063 cycles with the load of 870N. The peak value of maximum principal stress occurred at the contact area (LD: 172MPa and PIC: 96MPa) and central fossa (LD: 100MPa and PIC: 64MPa) for both ceramics which were the most seen failure areas in the experiment. In the adhesive layer, the maximum shear stress was observed at the shoulder area (LD: 53.6MPa and PIC: 29MPa). SIGNIFICANCE The fatigue life and failure modes of all-ceramic crown determined by the numerical method seem to correlate well with the previous experimental study.

Influence of remaining tooth structure and restorative material type on stress distribution in endodontically treated maxillary premolars: A finite element analysis. J Prosthet Dent 2016; 117:646-655.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM How tooth preparation and material type affect the stress distribution of endodontically treated teeth restored with endocrowns remains unclear. PURPOSE The purpose of this finite element (FE) study was to determine the influence of the quantity of remaining dental tissues and material type on stress distribution in endodontically treated maxillary premolars using 3-dimensional FE analysis. MATERIAL AND METHODS Five 3-dimensional FE models were constructed on the basis of the restorative methods used and the quantity of preserved tooth tissues: a sound maxillary premolar, an endodontically treated maxillary premolar restored with composite resin, and endodontically treated maxillary premolars restored with endocrowns with thicknesses of 1.0 mm, 2.0 mm, and 3.0 mm. The following endocrown materials were used: Paradigm MZ100, IPS Empress, IPS e.max CAD, and In-Ceram Zirconia. Stress distributions were analyzed under vertical and oblique loads. RESULTS As the quantity of preserved dental tissues increased, the von Mises stress in dentin decreased, and the peak von Mises strain value of the cement layer increased. When the elastic modulus of the endocrown material increased, the von Mises stress in endocrown and dentin increased, and the peak von Mises strain value of the cement layer decreased. CONCLUSIONS Although the conservative preparation of teeth for endocrowns is likely to protect the residual tooth structure, it may cause future cohesive bonding failure. An increase in the elastic modulus of the material may benefit the durability of bonding between the endocrown and the abutment tooth; however, it may cause fracture of the residual tooth structure.

Abstract
Background Dental biomechanics based on finite element (FE) analysis is attracting enormous interest in dentistry, biology, anthropology and palaeontology. Nonetheless, several shortcomings in FE modeling exist, mainly due to unrealistic loading conditions. In this contribution we used kinematics information recorded in a virtual environment derived from occlusal contact detection between high resolution models of an upper and lower human first molar pair (M1 and M1, respectively) to run a non-linear dynamic FE crash colliding test. Methodology MicroCT image data of a modern human skull were segmented to reconstruct digital models of the antagonistic right M1 and M1 and the dental supporting structures. We used the Occlusal Fingerprint Analyser software to reconstruct the individual occlusal pathway trajectory during the power stroke of the chewing cycle, which was applied in a FE simulation to guide the M1 3D-path for the crash colliding test. Results FE analysis results showed that the stress pattern changes considerably during the power stroke, demonstrating that knowledge about chewing kinematics in conjunction with a morphologically detailed FE model is crucial for understanding tooth form and function under physiological conditions. Conclusions/Significance Results from such advanced dynamic approaches will be applicable to evaluate and avoid mechanical failure in prosthodontics/endodontic treatments, and to test material behavior for modern tooth restoration in dentistry. This approach will also allow us to improve our knowledge in chewing-related biomechanics for functional diagnosis and therapy, and it will help paleoanthropologists to illuminate dental adaptive processes and morphological modifications in human evolution.
