Sönmez S, Koç C. Effect of several nickel-titanium rotary systems on stress distribution in mandibular molars under occlusal forces: a finite element analysis. Odontology 2024:10.1007/s10266-024-01002-3. [PMID: 39242406 DOI: 10.1007/s10266-024-01002-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2024] [Accepted: 08/29/2024] [Indexed: 09/09/2024]
Abstract
This study assessed the stress distribution under occlusal forces in mandibular molars after utilizing several nickel-titanium rotary systems and identified potential root fracture patterns through finite element analysis (FEA). Five three-dimensionally printed mandibular molars were used, with one tooth left unshaped and the remaining four shaped using ProTaper Gold (Dentsply, Tulsa Dental Specialties, Tulsa, OK), Reciproc Blue (VDW, Munich, Germany), XP-endo Shaper (FKG Dentaire, La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland), and Hyflex EDM (Coltene/Whaledent, Altst€atten, Switzerland) rotary systems. Subsequently, micro-CT scans were performed on the teeth, and representative FEA models were generated. Two distinct loadings, vertical and oblique, were applied, and stress parameters including von Mises stress, maximum principal stress, and minimum principal stress were recorded and compared across groups. Although stress values in both loading conditions correlated with volume increases post-shaping, the stress distribution patterns indicative of potential fractures were comparable across groups. Stresses under oblique loads were observed to be higher than those under vertical loads. Several rotary systems, based on the volumetric changes they induce in dental hard tissues, may elevate stress values throughout the tooth, leading to root fractures in regions where stress concentration occurs. Conservative root canal shaping leads to a lower overall stress concentration. In mandibular molars, oblique forces have a more destructive effect compared to vertical forces.

Comput Methods Biomech Biomed Engin 2024; 27:1704-1713.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the stress induced by clamps made of different materials on mandibular first molar teeth using finite element analysis. The tooth model to be used in the study was created using micro-CT scanner and the rubber dam clamp model was created in three dimensions (3D) using Solidworks and applied to a finite element tooth model of an intact mandibular first molar. The size of the clamp opening and the force to be applied were calculated according to the buccolingual distances of the tooth. The contact areas of the clamps on the tooth were determined and subjected to force. The stress distribution patterns and maximum von Mises stresses were calculated and compared against these forces. The most stress against these forces occurred in the enamel tissue on the distal side where the clamp was in contact with the tooth. The stress value in the stainless steel clamp (191.63 MPa) was approximately 85% higher than the clamp made of polyethylene ketone (103.85 MPa). The stress in the dentin and pulp tissue of the tooth was negligible. Clinicians should examine the enamel tissue below the equatorial line of the tooth in detail before clamp application. The forces exerted by stainless steel clamps can cause damage to the enamel tissue of the tooth or progression of an existing enamel crack.

Abstract
The aim was to compare the effect of different endodontic surgical treatments on the stress distributions in dentin of a simulated first mandibular molar tooth using the finite element analysis method. Three surgical endodontic procedures (apical resection, root amputation, and hemisection) were simulated in a first mandibular molar. Biodentine or mineral-trioxide-aggregate was used to repair the surgery site in apical resection and root amputation models; the remaining root canal spaces were filled with gutta-percha. Access cavities were restored using resin composite. In hemisection model, root canal was filled with gutta-percha, and coronal restoration was finished with a monolithic zirconia crown. A sound tooth model was created as a control model. An oblique force of 300 N angled at 45° to the occlusal plane was simulated. Maximum von Mises stresses were evaluated in dentin near the surgery regions and the entire tooth. Apical resection/Biodentine and apical resection/mineral-trioxide-aggregate models generated maximum von Mises stresses of 39.001 MPa and 39.106 MPa, respectively. The recorded maximum von Mises stresses in root amputation models were 66.491 MPa for root amputation/Biodentine and 73.063 MPa for root amputation/mineral-trioxide-aggregate models. The highest maximum von Mises stress value among all models was observed in the hemisection model, measuring 138.87 MPa. Hemisection induced the highest von Mises stresses in dentin, followed by root amputation and apical resection. In apical resection, Biodentine and mineral-trioxide-aggregate did not show a significant difference in stress distribution. Biodentine in root amputation may lead to lower stresses compared to mineral-trioxide-aggregate.

Abstract
To evaluate the influence of the loss of coronal and radicular tooth structure on the biomechanical behavior and fatigue life of an endodontically treated maxillary premolar with confluent root canals using finite element analysis (FEA). An extracted maxillary second premolar was scanned to produce intact (IT) 3D model. Models were designed with an occlusal conservative access cavity (CAC) with different coronal defects; mesial defect (MO CAC), occlusal, mesial and distal defect (MOD CAC), and 2 different root canal preparations (30/.04, and 40/.04) producing 6 experimental models. FEA was used to study each model. A simulation of cycling loading of 50N was applied occlusally to stimulate the normal masticatory force. Number of cycles till failure (NCF) was used to compare strength of different models and stress distribution patterns via von Mises (vM) and maximum principal stress (MPS). The IT model survived 1.5 × 1010 cycles before failure, the CAC-30.04 had the longest survival of 1.59 × 109, while the MOD CAC-40.04 had the shortest survival of 8.35 × 107 cycles till failure. vM stress analysis showed that stress magnitudes were impacted by the progressive loss of coronal tooth structure rather than the radicular structure. MPS analysis showed that significant loss of coronal tooth structure translates into more tensile stresses. Given the limited size of maxillary premolars, marginal ridges have a critical role in the biomechanical behavior of the tooth. Access cavity preparation has a much bigger impact than radicular preparation on their strength and life span.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endodontic shaping causes stress and strain in the root canal dentin. Dentin microcracks have the potential to be later followed by root fractures occurring under the occlusal load. The aim of our research was to theoretically determine the values of such dentinal states of stress and strain during the endodontic shaping of curved root canals using finite element analysis (FEA). METHODS To highlight the stress concentrations in dentin, two geometric models were created considering the volume of the curved dental root and the contact between the endodontic file and the root canal walls. The application of forces with different values was simulated both on a uniform curved root canal and on a root canal with an apical third curvature of 25° as they would be applied during the preparation of a root canal. RESULTS In the case of the first model, which was acted upon with a force of 5 N, the deformations of the root canal appeared along the entire working length, reaching the highest values in the apical third of the root, although there were no geometric changes in the shape of the root canal. Regarding the second root model, with an apical third curvature of 25°, although the applied force was 2 N, the deformations were accompanied by geometric changes in the shape of the root, especially in the upper part of the apical third. At a higher force of 7 N exerted on the endodontic file, the geometric shape changed, and the deformation reached extreme critical values. The resulting tensile stresses appearing in the experimental structure varied similarly to the deformations. CONCLUSIONS Significant stress and strain can develop, especially in the apical third of curved root canals during their shaping, and the risk of cracks is higher for endodontically treated teeth presenting severe curvatures in the apical third of the root.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study investigated the effects from the carious cavity and access from it on the fracture resistance of endodontically treated maxillary premolars using finite element analysis (FEA). METHODS A maxillary premolar was used to compare 3 types of access cavity related to having a proximal carious defect: caries-driven access (CDA), conservative access that has a mesial component (MCA), as well as traditional access with the same mesial component (MTA). Cyclic loading was simulated on the occlusal surface, and number of cycles until failure (NCF) was compared with the intact tooth model (IT). Mathematical analysis was done to evaluate the stress distribution patterns and calculated maximum von Mises (vM) and maximum principal stresses (MPS), with emphasis on pericervical region as a specific area of interest. RESULTS Maximum vM registered on the IT was 6.14 MPa. CDA provided the highest NCF with 92.28% of the IT, followed by MCA (84.90%) and MTA (83.79%). The vM and MPS analysis showed that the stress values and patterns are affected more by the proximity of the occlusal load to the tooth/restoration interface. Concerning the pericervical region, maximum vM was registered for IT (4.11 MPa), followed by CDA (4.85 MPa) and then MCA (8.13 MPa) and MTA (8.61 MPa), whereas the MPS analysis revealed that CDA showed the highest magnitude of tensile stresses. CONCLUSIONS A proximal CDA benefits the mechanical properties of maxillary premolars; however, its impact on the biological aspect should be assessed to provide a ruling for/against it.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES External cervical root resorption (ECR) is a poorly understood and aggressive form of resorption. The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence, characteristics, and risk factors associated with the occurrence of ECR in patients seeking endodontic care from private practice settings. MATERIALS AND METHODS Records of 343 patients with 390 teeth diagnosed with ECR were identified from 3 private endodontic practices from 2008 to 2022. The patients' demographic information, systemic conditions, and dental history were recorded. The characteristics of the cases including Heithersay classification, pulpal and periapical status, and their management were documented. The association between case severity and potential predisposing factors was examined using chi-square analysis. RESULTS The overall prevalence of ECR among patients seeking endodontic care was low (< 1%). However, there was a greater than twofold increase in the pooled prevalence from 2016 to 2021 (0.99%) compared to the data from 2010 to 2015 (0.46%). The most commonly affected teeth were anterior teeth (48.7%). Class II (30.0%) and class III (45.4%) defects were the most often identified. Patients with a history of trauma or orthodontic treatment were significantly more likely to be diagnosed with severe cervical resorption (class III or IV) (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS There has been an increase in the prevalence of ECR in patients seeking endodontic care. A history of orthodontic treatment and traumatic dental mechanical injuries may predict the severity of resorption. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The upward trend in the occurrence of ECR warrants close monitoring of the patients at high risk of developing the condition to facilitate early detection and management.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of mechanical force on possible dynamic changes of the matrix proteins deposition in the PDL upon in vitro mechanical and in vivo occlusal forces in a rat model with hypofunctional conditions. MATERIALS AND METHODS Intermittent compressive force (ICF) and shear force (SF) were applied to human periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs). Protein expression of collagen I and POSTN was analyzed by western blot technique. To establish an in vivo model, rat maxillary molars were extracted to facilitate hypofunction of the periodontal ligament (PDL) tissue of the opposing mandibular molar. The mandibles were collected after 4-, 8-, and 12-weeks post-extraction and used for micro-CT and immunohistochemical analysis. RESULTS ICF and SF increased the synthesis of POSTN by human PDLSCs. Histological changes in the hypofunctional teeth revealed a narrowing of the PDL space, along with a decreased amount of collagen I, POSTN, and laminin in perivascular structures compared to the functional contralateral molars. CONCLUSION Our results revealed that loss of occlusal force disrupts deposition of some major matrix proteins in the PDL, underscoring the relevance of mechanical forces in maintaining periodontal tissue homeostasis by modulating ECM composition.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study investigated the effect of shaping parameters of two different configurations of middle mesial canals (MMC) on the biomechanical behavior and life span of a mandibular first molar using finite element analysis (FEA). METHODS A mandibular molar with an independent MMC and another with a confluent MMC were scanned via micro-CT, and FEA models were produced. For each tooth, an intact model and 5 experimental models were produced differed by parameters of how MMC was shaped: unshaped MMC, 25/.04, 25/.06, 30/.04, and 30/.06. Cyclic loading of 50 N was applied on the occlusal surface in vertical and oblique scenarios, and the number of cycles until failure (NCF) was compared to the intact models. In addition, mathematical analyses evaluated the stress distribution patterns and calculated maximum von Mises and maximum principal stresses. RESULTS For both the independent and confluent MMC models, shaping the MMC reduced the NCF. The lifelog percentage of models was inversely proportional with radicular shaping parameters during the vertical and oblique loading scenarios. The shaping size of 30/.06 resulted in lower lifelog percentage than the cases with shaping size of 25/.04 in both of the independent and confluent MMC models. For all models, oblique loading reduced NCF more than vertical loading. CONCLUSION Shaping the MMC should be kept as conservative as 25/.04. Also, whether the MMC is independent or confluent is a deciding factor in whether to increase the apical diameter or the root canal taper when larger shaping parameters are needed.
