Abstract
This study aimed to clarify the fracture resistance of resin abutments built on endodontically treated roots with the remaining coronal teeth via static and cyclic loading tests. Endodontically treated bovine roots, which had a remaining coronal tooth covered with an occupied area for a quarter and half of the circumference at the tensile side or covered the circumference at both the tensile and compressive sides, were fabricated to build up to the resin abutment. Fracture resistance was evaluated via static and cyclic loading tests by applying a load of 30° to the tooth axis. Half of the circumference of the remaining coronal tooth showed a significantly higher static fracture load and survival rate. The remaining coronal tooth on the compressive side improved the dynamic fracture resistance associated with severe fractures. The occupied area and location of the remaining coronal tooth affected the static and dynamic fracture resistances.

Dong S, Peng M, Wu G, Yao C, Huang C, Liang S. Does an incomplete ferrule affect the fracture of endodontically treated teeth? A systematic review of in vitro studies. J Dent 2024; 146:105068. [PMID: 38740250 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2024.105068] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2024] [Revised: 05/08/2024] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this systematic review was to assess the impact of the incomplete ferrule on the fracture of endodontically treated teeth (ETT). DATA The keywords such as "incomplete ferrule," "ferrule," "ferrule effect," "residual dentin," "remaining dentin," or "remaining coronal dentin" were used for searching, and only in vitro studies investigating the incomplete ferrule effect on natural teeth were included. SOURCES PubMed, Medline, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Science Direct databases, and manual-searching. STUDY SELECTION The search strategy yielded 1633 hits, and a total of 19 in vitro studies closely related to the effect of incomplete ferrule on ETT were included. CONCLUSION The presence of an incomplete ferrule may significantly increase the fracture resistance of restored ETT, compared with restored ETT without ferrule. The number of residual axial walls of the incomplete ferrule may have an impact on the fracture resistance and fracture mode. The location of residual axial walls of the incomplete ferrule may affect the fracture resistance but not the fracture mode. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS Limited data suggest that the presence of incomplete ferrule has a positive effect on the fracture resistance of restored ETT. An incomplete ferrule can be an alternative for restoring ETT when a complete ferrule is not present. Nevertheless, further high-quality studies are still needed to offer more robust evidence and to take potential confounding factors into account.

Abstract
Purpose The aim of this work is to conduct a literature review to highlight all the parameters involved in sub-prosthetic radicular fractures of teeth supported by metallic dental core. Materials and Methods The following research was performed among published studies over the last 10 years in two PubMed/Medline and Scopus and supplemented by manual searching within the bibliographies. The search was restricted to publications in English and French. Results Out of the 1464 articles initially identified, 18 studies met our inclusion criteria and were subsequently included in the literature review. These consisted of eight Finite Element Analysis Studies, two Retrospective Studies and one Randomized Controlled Trial. The results of this review show that radicular fractures are influenced by several variables, including predisposition, with maxillary premolars and mandibular molars being the most commonly affected teeth. Intracanal preparation can induce crack formation, leading to localized high stress concentrations. Increased ferrule height to 2 mm significantly enhances dental fracture resistance. Using high modulus of elasticity alloys results in nearly complete stress transmission to dentin due to their limited deformability and absorption capacity. The highest fracture resistance is achieved when posts are sealed using resin-modified glass-ionomer cement. Longer posts may be preferable to prevent vertical fractures. Additionally, occlusal factors, through repetitive stresses, contribute to crack propagation from surface defects, a phenomenon termed fatigue fracture. Conclusion These findings have significant implications. Practitioners should be aware of the predisposition of certain teeth, the importance of preserving the ferrule effect, the choice of root post materials, post Cement Material and the role of occlusal forces in managing and preventing vertical root fractures.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The influence of the ferrule thickness and post materials on the fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth remains unclear. PURPOSE The purpose of this laboratory study was to evaluate the influence of post material and ferrule thickness on the fracture resistance of endodontically treated mandibular premolars. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixty-four extracted and endodontically treated mandibular first premolars were used and divided into 4 test groups (n=16) depending on the ferrule thickness: F-0: without a ferrule, F-0.5: with a 0.5-mm ferrule thickness, F-1: with a 1-mm ferrule thickness, and F-1.5: with a 1.5-mm ferrule thickness. In groups with ferrules, the height ranged from 2 mm buccally/lingually to 1 mm proximally. Teeth in subgroups (n=8) were restored with either prefabricated glass fiber (FF) or titanium posts (FT) (ISO size 70 and length of 7.5 mm) and then adhesively restored with composite resin foundation materials. After foundation procedures, each specimen was restored with a cobalt chromium crown which was cemented with glass-ionomer cement. All specimens were subjected to dynamic loading in a masticatory simulator for 1 200 000 loading cycles with a nominal load of 5 Kg at 1.2 Hz and simultaneous thermocycling (5 to 55 °C). Specimens were then quasistatically loaded at 30 degrees in a universal testing machine until fracture. Fracture loads were analyzed by using 2-way ANOVA followed by the Tukey honestly significant difference test (α=.05). RESULTS Fracture loads ranged from 610 ±45 N (no ferrule - glass fiber post) to 1216 ±169 N (1.5 mm ferrule thickness - glass fiber post). A statistically significant increase in fracture resistance was observed with increasing ferrule thickness (P<.001). However, post materials did not show a statistically significant influence (P=.977). CONCLUSIONS Under the conditions of this laboratory study, increasing the ferrule thickness had a significant effect on the fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth after thermomechanical fatigue, irrespective of post materials.

Abstract
Objectives The present study aimed to assess the effect of ferrule location on fracture resistance of maxillary premolars. Materials and Methods A total of 72 extracted human maxillary premolars were selected and randomly assigned to six groups (n = 12 in each) considering ferrule location: circumferential ferrule (CF), without ferrule (WF), buccal ferrule (BF), lingual ferrule (LF), mesial ferrule (MF), and buccal-lingual ferrule (BLF). Cast posts were cemented into the prepared post spaces. Following conventional impression, Ni-Cr crowns were cemented to the specimens. After thermocycling (5,000 cycles, 5-55°C), the specimens were loaded at 45° in a universal testing machine until fracture. Data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, and Tamhane tests. Results The maximum and minimum mean fracture resistance were related to the CF (1,143.84 N) and WF (514.89 N) groups, respectively, (P = 0.039). Fracture resistance in the BF (933.67 N) and BLF (874.01 N) groups was significantly higher than in the MF group (617.54 N) (P = 0.001). There was no significant difference between the MF, LF (722.89 N), and WF groups in terms of fracture resistance (P > 0.05). Conclusion Teeth with CF showed maximum fracture resistance. The location of the ferrule effects on the fracture resistance of maxillary premolars and also the mode of failure.

Abstract
PURPOSE The present meta-analysis aimed to answer the following research question: In endodontically treated teeth (ETT), what is the effect of partial ferrule (PF) on fracture resistance compared to complete ferrule (CF) and/or no ferrule (NF)? STUDY SELECTION PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar were searched for relevant studies published until May 20, 2022. In vitro studies that compared the effect of partial ferrule with that of complete ferrule and/or no ferrule on fracture resistance of ETT were included. The studies were assessed for risk of bias, and a meta-analysis was performed. RESULTS Seventeen in vitro studies comprising 807 teeth were included. Nine studies were at a high risk of bias and eight presented a moderate risk of bias. Overall, the results showed that CF was superior to PF in increasing fracture resistance (SMD= 0.93, CI95%= 0.57-1.29, P< 0.0001), with no change in the effect based on the type of teeth (P< 0.001). However, the subgroup analysis found that PF 2 mm buccal, lingual, and buccal and lingual ferrule were comparable to CF (P= 0.06). Additionally, the PF group showed significantly higher fracture resistance than the NF group (SMD= 2.02, CI95%= 1.54-2.49, P< 0.00001). CONCLUSIONS Although CF design provided the highest fracture resistance to restored ETT, PF can still be a viable option for restoring ETT in cases where CF is not feasible.

Fracture Resistance in Non-Vital Teeth: Absence of Interproximal Ferrule and Influence of Preparation Depth in CAD/CAM Endocrown Overlays-An In Vitro Study. MATERIALS 2022; 15:ma15020436. [PMID: 35057154 PMCID: PMC8778771 DOI: 10.3390/ma15020436] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2021] [Revised: 12/27/2021] [Accepted: 01/04/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
There is ample evidence to support the use of endocrowns to restore endodontic teeth. However, the influence of the position of the interproximal margins on fracture strength has not yet been studied. The aim was to determine the relationship between the apicocoronal position of the interproximal restorative margins and fracture resistance in nonvital teeth restored with CAD/CAM endocrown overlays. Forty extracted human maxillary premolars were prepared for endocrown overlay restorations without ferrule on the interproximal aspects and classified according to the position of the interproximal restoration margins in relation to the alveolar crest: 2 mm (group A), 1 mm (group B), 0.5 mm (group C), and 0 mm (group D). Fracture strength was measured using a universal testing machine applying a compressive force to the longitudinal tooth axis. Group A had a mean fracture resistance of 859.61 (±267.951) N, group B 1053.9 (±333.985) N, group C 1124.6 (±291.172) N, and group D 780.67 (±183.269) N, with statistical differences between groups. Group C had the highest values for fracture strength compared to the other groups (p < 0.05). The location of the interproximal margins appears to influence the fracture resistance of CAD/CAM endocrown overlays. A distance of 0.5 mm between the interproximal margin and the alveolar crest was associated with increased fracture resistance.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) can be used as a framework material for removable and fixed dental prostheses. However, information about the use of PEEK as a post-and-core restoration is scarce. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of different surface treatments on the push-out bond strength of milled polyetheretherketone posts to resin cement. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixty intact human maxillary central incisors were selected and endodontically treated, and standardized post spaces were prepared. Sixty PEEK posts were milled from a prefabricated PEEK blank by using a computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) system and divided into 3 groups (n=15) according to the surface treatment: acid etching by using 98% sulfuric acid (AE); airborne-particle abrasion by using 50-μm Al2O3 (AA); nonthermal plasma treatment (NTP); in addition, PEEK posts (n=15) received no treatment (NT) and served as a control. All posts were bonded by using a self-adhesive resin cement. Three sections (coronal, middle, and apical) were obtained for each specimen. Push-out bond strength measurements (MPa) for each section were recorded by using a universal testing machine at a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min until failure occurred. The post-cement interfaces and failure modes were evaluated by using scanning electron microscopy. The data obtained were statistically analyzed by using 1-way ANOVA and the pair-wise Tukey (HSD) test to study the difference between group mean values (α=.05). RESULTS The overall mean ±standard deviation of the push-out bond strength was 11 ±2 MPa for AE group, 6 ±1 MPa for AA group, 5 ±1 MPa for NTP group, and 3 ±1 MPa for NT group. A statistically significant difference was found among all groups subjected to different surface treatments as indicated by the ANOVA test (P<.001). The pair-wise Tukey honestly significant difference (HSD) test showed a significant difference among the AE group and all groups (P<.001); however, no significant difference was observed between the AA and NTP groups (P>.05). Moreover, a significant difference was observed among all root sections (P<.001). CONCLUSIONS Surface treatment of PEEK posts with 98% sulfuric acid for 60 seconds showed significantly higher bond strength values than those in other groups. The bond strength of PEEK posts to resin cement was significantly higher in the coronal section than that in other sections.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the fracture strength of endodontically treated human maxillary premolars (ETP) restored with posts and metal ceramic (MC) or monolithic zirconia (MZ) crowns. Sixty ETP were randomly divided into 3 groups. Teeth in control group (C) received a resin filling. ETP in the MC group were restored with prefabricated metal posts, composite cores and MC crowns while in the MZ group with glass-fiber posts, composite cores and MZ crowns. Half of the specimens were loaded at a 135° angle and half under axial loading until fracture. The fracture modes were divided in repairable and irreparable using optical microscopy. Mean fracture strength was significantly higher for MC than for MZ crowns and control group only under axial loading. The distribution of repairable and irreparable failures presented no significant differences. Crown placement significantly improved the fracture strength of ETP irrespectively of post and crown type.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The influence of the flexural modulus of prefabricated posts on the fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth is unclear. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the influence of post material and post diameter on the fracture resistance of endodontically treated mandibular premolars. In addition, the influence of tooth substance loss was evaluated by comparing 1 with 2 residual dentinal walls. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixty-four extracted mandibular first premolars were endodontically treated and divided into 8 test groups (n=8) based on the number of residual walls (1 or 2), post material (glass fiber or titanium) and post diameter (International Standards Organization [ISO] 70 or ISO 90). After luting the posts, the specimens received a composite resin core and a crown preparation with a 2-mm ferrule. Cast Co-Cr crowns were cemented with glass ionomer cement. After 1 200 000 mastication cycles with a load of 49 N and simultaneous thermocycling (5 °C-55 °C), specimens were quasistatically loaded at 30 degrees to the longitudinal axis of the tooth until fracture. Fracture loads were analyzed by using 3-way ANOVA (α=.05). Fracture modes were examined with a stereomicroscope at ×25 magnification and recorded. RESULTS Fracture loads ranged from 954 ±35 N (1 residual wall-glass fiber-ISO 70) to 1286 ±202 N (1 residual wall-glass fiber-ISO 90). Titanium posts showed a statistically significant higher fracture resistance than glass fiber posts. A statistically significant increase in fracture resistance was also observed with increasing post diameter. However, no significant difference was found with respect to the number of residual walls (P>.05). CONCLUSIONS Teeth restored with titanium posts exhibited higher fracture resistance than teeth restored with glass fiber posts, especially when smaller diameter posts were used.

Abstract
SUMMARY
Objectives:
This study evaluated effects of Bioglass 45S5 (BG) and Biosilicate (BS) remineralization on the chemical composition and bond strength of control dentin (CD) and bleached dentin (BD) surfaces.
Methods and Materials:
Dentin bleaching treatment was performed using the walking bleaching technique with 0.01 g of sodium perborate and 0.5 mL of 3% hydrogen peroxide for 14 days. Remineralization treatment was carried out by rubbing a remineralization solution (0.015 g of BG or BS diluted in 1.35 mL of distilled water) on the etched dentin surface for 30 seconds. Micro-Raman spectroscopy (MRS) was used to quantitatively analyze the mineral matrix ratios of CD and BD (n=5) after remineralization treatment with BG and BS over 15 days of incubation in artificial saliva. The CD and BD discs (n=10) with and without remineralization treatment with BG and BS were restored using a two-step etch-and-rinse adhesive system (Optibond S, Kerr) and five layers of 1-mm-thick composite resin (Filtek Z250, 3M ESPE). The restored dentin discs were sectioned into nine bonded beams with cross-sectional areas of approximately 0.9 mm2 and tested for microtensile bond strength (μTBS). The dentin surface of one fractured beam per tooth was submitted to MRS to characterize the physicochemical composition (n=10) at the interface. The data were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance and the Tukey-Kramer post hoc test (p<0.005).
Results:
MRS bioactive analyses revealed that both BG and BS promoted increased mineral matrix ratios in the CD and BD. Significantly higher μTBS values were found after CD treatment with BG (CD: 57 MPa±11; CD-BG: 78 MPa±15) and when BG and BS were applied to the BD (BD: 42 MPa±5; BD-BG: 71 MPa±14; BD-BS: 64 MPa±11) (p<0.005). The MRS analysis of the fractured dentin beam showed that the remineralization treatment significantly increased the dentin relative mineral concentration and promoted the appearance of new interface peaks, indicating a chemical interaction (p<0.005).
Conclusion:
Remineralization of BD is an effective therapy to restore damage caused by dentin bleaching and acid conditioning. This approach not only increases dentin mineral compounds but also improves dentin's ability to interact chemically with the adhesive system.

Abstract
SUMMARY
Objectives:
To investigate the survival and failure mode of fiber-post resin restorations over preparations with different ferrule designs when submitted to a fatigue load test.
Methods and Materials:
Fifty bovine incisors were selected and divided into five groups (n=10) according to ferrule design: a no-ferrule group, a 2-mm circumferential ferrule group, a 2-mm buccal ferrule group, a 2-mm lingual ferrule group, and a 2-mm buccal and lingual ferrule group. The fiberglass post was cemented and the composite core was built up and prepared, followed by cementation of a full composite crown. The samples were subjected to a cyclic fatigue test with loading applicator at 135°; a staircase approach was used until fracture. Survival (cycles to fracture) and failure modes were recorded. Survival data were analyzed with the log-rank test, while Kruskal-Wallis and Fisher exact tests were used to analyze failure mode data (α=0.05).
Results:
The median number of cycles to fracture ranged from 215,000 to 236,153. The log-rank test showed no statistically significant difference in survival rates among the groups (p=0.82). Regarding failure mode, three types were observed: I, post and/or core fracture; II, root fracture in the cervical third; and III, root fracture in the middle third. No statistical difference was observed among the groups (Kruskal-Wallis test, p=0.147).
Conclusion:
The ferrule design had no effect on fatigue resistance or failure mode of endodontically treated incisor teeth restored with a fiber post, composite core buildup, and composite crown.

Abstract
Background: Teeth with severe crown destruction and endodontically treated may or may not present a circular strip of dental tissue located in the cervical region called ferrule. Aims: The aims of this study were to evaluate ferrule thickness influence on endodontically treated teeth (ETT) resistance to fracture. Materials and Methods: A total of 30 bovine incisor teeth were selected, endodontically treated and randomly distributed, according to the ferrule thickness: G1- no ferrule, G2 – 1 mm, and G3 – 2 mm. All the teeth were restored with prefabricated posts and composite resin. Resistance to fracture was established as the compression strength at 45° tilt at the lingual surface of the crown. Statistical Analysis Used: Data were analyzed using ANOVA and Tukey's test. Results: Resistance to fracture of G1 and G2 were significantly higher than that of G3 (P < 0.001). The pattern of fracture, common to all groups, occurred at the composite resin on the coronary portions. Conclusion: Ferrule thickness can influence the resistance to fracture of ETT.

Abstract
Objective: This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the fracture resistance of endodontically treated maxillary central incisors with different post systems. Methods: Fifty-six extracted intact maxillary permanent central incisors were used, treated endodontically (except for the control group), and distributed into the following seven test groups (n=8) depending on the post type: UHT (control group: root-filled teeth without endodontic post), ZRP (prefabricated zirconia post), GFP (prefabricated glass fiber post), CFP (prefabricated carbon fiber post), CPC (custom-made cast post and core), TIP (prefabricated titanium post), and MIP (prefabricated mixed post). The specimens were loaded in a universal testing machine until fracture occurrence. Failure loads were then analyzed with one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), followed by multiple comparisons by using Tukey’s honest significant difference test (α=0.05). Results: Mean (SD) failure loads for groups ranged from 524±73.2 N for CPC to 764.1±156 N for GFP. One-way ANOVA showed significant differences in terms of fracture resistances among groups (P<0.001). Tukey’s honest significant difference test showed significant differences in fracture resistance within groups (P≤0.05), whereas no difference was observed between the UHT (control group) and CFP and CPC groups (P≥0.05). Conclusion: Endodontically treated teeth restored with zirconia post, glass fiber post, titanium post, or mixed post were more resistant to fracture loads compared with those that were not restored (control group) or restored with either carbon fiber post or cast post and core.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine dental practitioners' opinions, techniques, and materials used for the restoration of endodontically treated teeth (ETT) in Saudi Arabia. A comprehensive nationwide survey regarding treatment strategies of ETT, on the post types and material used for core foundations were distributed either by email or by hard copies to general dentists in different parts of Saudi Arabia (North, South, West, East, and Center). Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the responses to the questions. A total of 164 participants were included in the survey: 72.6% of them were male, and 27.4% were female. 42.1% of the participants were Saudi dental practitioners, whereas 57.9% were non-Saudi dental practitioners. Out of the surveyed dentists, 52% consider post placement for almost every post-endodontic restoration of ETT. The majority of the dentists (54%) believe that a post strengthens ETT. Cast posts and cores were used by 55% of all the dentists, whereas 34% used prefabricated posts exclusively. Screw posts were the most popular prefabricated post type (47%). Composite resin (51%) was preferred for the core foundation, followed by glass ionomer cements (GICs) (26%). Amalgam was seldom used (0.5%). Posts were placed primarily with zinc phosphate cement (51%), followed by GIC (38%). Within the limitations of this survey-based investigation among dental practitioners in Saudi Arabia, it was concluded that the treatment strategies of ETT are in accordance with the current state of evidence-based knowledge.

Abstract
To our knowledge there is no data about the mechanical performance of indirect restoration adhesively cemented on teeth without an adequate build-up to provide the correct geometrical configuration. The aim of this study was to compare the fracture strength of human teeth restored with lithium disilicate onlays, with and without fiber post build-up. METHODS Twenty human mandibular molars were horizontally sectioned and divided into two groups (n = 10). No treatment was applied in group A. Teeth in group B were endodontically treated, built-up using fiber post and composite core and prepared with a circumferential chamfer providing a 1 mm circumferential ferrule. Lithium disilicate onlays were pressed and luted on teeth using dual-curing luting composite. Teeth were tested under static load. Failures were classified as restorable or not restorable. Failure loads were analyzed with one-way analysis of variance. Failure modes were compared using Pearson's Chi-square tests. RESULTS The mean fracture loads were 1383.5 N for group A and 1286.3 N for group B. No difference was found (p = 0.6). Ninety per cent of fractures were classified as not restorable in both groups, with no difference (p = 0.8). CONCLUSIONS For teeth restored with adhesive procedures and lithium disilicate onlays, the presence of build-up with fiber post to provide retention and resistance form does not influence the fracture strength.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the fracture resistance of endodontically treated mandibular premolars restored with glass fiber posts using different luting agents. Methods: Twenty-four extracted single-rooted mandibular premolars were endodontically treated, and post spaces were prepared to receive fiber posts. They were assigned to three test groups (n=8) according to the type of cement used for the cementation of glass fiber posts: RC group: adhesive resin cement group (etch and rinse), SC group: self-adhesive resin cement group, and GC group: glass ionomer cement group. Teeth in all groups were adhesively restored with a composite resin core material and crowned with Ni-Cr crowns. All specimens were subjected to tangential loading using a universal testing machine until fracture at 30°. Failure loads were recorded, and data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s HSD test (α=0.05). Results: Specimens in the RC group were more resistant (258.3±12.7 N) to fracture than those in the SC (218.7±11.1 N) and GC (165.4±8.9 N) groups (P≤0.001). One-way ANOVA indicated that the type of cement had a significant effect on the fracture resistance of endodontically treated lower premolars (P≤0.001). Conclusion: The type of cement that was used to fix glass fiber posts was a determining factor of the fracture resistance of endodontically treated lower premolars.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study evaluated fracture resistance with regard to ferrule lengths and post reinforcement on endodontically treated mandibular premolars incorporating a prefabricated post and resin core. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred extracted mandibular premolars were randomly divided into 5 groups (n=20): intact teeth (NR); endodontically treated teeth (ETT) without post (NP); ETT restored with a prefabricated post with ferrule lengths of either 0 mm (F0), 1 mm (F1), or 2 mm (F2). Prepared teeth were restored with metal crowns. A thermal cycling test was performed for 1,000 cycles. Loading was applied at an angle of 135 degrees to the axis of the tooth using a universal testing machine with a crosshead speed of 2.54 mm/min. Fracture loads were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and Tukey HSD test using a statistical program (α=.05). RESULTS There were statistical differences in fracture loads among groups (P<.001). The fracture load of F2 (237.7 ± 83.4) was significantly higher than those of NP (155.6 ± 74.3 N), F0 (98.8 ± 43.3 N), and F1 (152.8 ± 78.5 N) (P=.011, P<.001, and P=.008, respectively). CONCLUSION Fracture resistance of ETT depends on the length of the ferrule, as shown by the significantly increased fracture resistance in the 2 mm ferrule group (F2) compared to the groups with shorter ferrule lengths (F0, F1) and without post (NP).

Abstract
ABSTRACT
Objectives:
To evaluate the effects of direct composite resin without a post or with one or two fiberglass posts on the restoration of severely compromised endodontically treated molars.
Methods and Materials:
Forty-five molars with 2 mm of “remaining tooth structure” were divided into three groups: Wfgp, restored with Filtek Z350XT without a fiberglass post; 1fgp, restored with Z350XT with one fiberglass post in the distal root canal; and 2fgp, restored with Z350XT with two fiberglass posts, one in the distal root canal and the other in the mesial-buccal root canal. The teeth were load cycled. Tooth remaining strain was measured using strain gauges (n=10) at two moments: TrSt-100 N, during 100 N occlusal loading, and TrSt-Fr, at fracture load. Fracture resistance was calculated, and fracture mode was classified. The elastic modulus and Vickers hardness were calculated using dynamic indentation (n=5). Stress distribution was analyzed by three-dimensional finite element analysis.
Results:
The use of two fiberglass posts resulted in lower fracture resistance than was noted in the groups with one fiberglass post and without fiberglass posts. The lingual surface of the remaining tooth had higher strain values than the buccal surface, regardless of the restorative technique and moment of evaluation. The absence of a fiberglass post resulted in significantly higher strain values and more irreparable fracture modes than were noted in the other groups. The use of one fiberglass post had a better strain/fracture resistance ratio. Stresses were concentrated in the occlusal portion of the post and in the furcation region. The presence of one fiberglass post resulted in better stress distribution in the entire distal root dentin, reducing stress on the critical areas.
Conclusions:
The use of one fiberglass post for restoring molars with direct composite resin resulted in higher fracture resistance than did the use of two fiberglass posts; it also resulted in better tooth remaining strain and stress distribution and more reparable fracture modes than were seen in the group without a fiberglass post.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Endodontically treated teeth with Class III restorations show reduced fracture resistance. The placement of glass fiber posts may affect fracture resistance and should be further evaluated. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of fiber posts on the fracture resistance of endodontically treated maxillary central incisors with Class III restorations. MATERIAL AND METHODS Forty extracted human maxillary central incisors were selected and divided into 4 test groups (n=10 each) according to the restoration strategy: control group; endodontically treated teeth without endodontic posts (GHT); endodontically treated teeth with 2 Class III restorations simulating coronal destruction (GCT); endodontically treated teeth with 2 Class III restorations and a carbon fiber post (GCF); and endodontically treated teeth with 2 Class III restorations and a glass-fiber post (GGF). The fiber posts were adhesively cemented with composite resin cement, and the cavities were restored with composite resin. After 3 months of water storage, all specimens were loaded at 45 degrees in a universal testing machine until fracture and evaluated for fracture mode. The data were analyzed using 1-way ANOVA, followed by the Tukey honest significant difference multiple comparisons test (α=.05). RESULTS Mean ±SD failure loads ranged from 687.5 ±84.0 N to 943.8 ±93.1 N. One-way ANOVA revealed a statistically significant difference among the groups (P≤.05). The control group (GHT) had significantly higher resistance to fracture than the other groups (P≤.05). CONCLUSIONS Within the limitations of this in vitro study, placement of a fiber post did not affect the fracture resistance of endodontically treated maxillary central incisors with 2 Class III restorations.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Cusp coverage restorations for the restoration of endodontically treated teeth represent a conservative approach in terms of function and esthetics. However, limited scientific data are available regarding the optimum reduction design and thicknesses. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the fracture resistance and fracture patterns of cusp coverage restorations with different cusp reduction designs and reduction thicknesses on endodontically treated maxillary premolars (ETMPs) with mesio-occluso-distal (MOD) cavities. MATERIAL AND METHODS One hundred sixty-five extracted intact human maxillary premolars were divided into 11 groups: G1-10 (test groups) and G11 (intact group). In the test groups, all of the teeth were restored with composite resin after canal treatments with MOD cavities. However, the cusps of the G1-9 teeth were reduced with combinations of different thicknesses (1.5, 2.5, and 3.5 mm) and designs (beveled, horizontal, and anatomic). The specimens were subjected to 10(5) cycles of 50 N mechanical loading. Next, the specimens were subjected to a compressive load at a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min until fracture. The fractured specimens were analyzed to determine the fracture pattern. Two-way ANOVA followed by the Fisher least significant difference (LSD) test was used to analyze the interaction between groups. RESULTS The fracture resistance values increased with increases in the cusp reductions. The fracture resistance values of the G6 (2.5 mm, anatomic) and G9 (3.5 mm, anatomic) groups were significantly greater than that of the MOD group. However, the G6, G8 (3.5 mm, horizontal), and G9 groups were comparable with G11. The highest restorable fracture rates were observed in G6 and G9. CONCLUSIONS Cusp reduction design and thickness influenced the fracture resistance and fracture patterns of cusp coverage restorations of ETMPs with MOD cavities. The teeth restored with anatomic cusp reduction designs with reduction thicknesses of at least 2.5 mm exhibited greater fracture resistance and more frequent restorable fractures.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM How the placement of fiber posts affects the fracture resistance of endodontically treated maxillary central incisors with cervical cavities is not well documented. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of fiber posts on the fracture resistance of endodontically treated maxillary central incisors with cervical cavities. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifty extracted human maxillary central incisors were selected and divided into 5 test groups (n=10) according to the restoration strategy: GHT, control group; endodontically treated teeth (ETT) without endodontic posts; GCV, ETT with cervical cavities simulating coronal destruction; GCF, ETT with cervical cavities and carbon fiber posts; GGF, ETT with cervical cavities and glass fiber posts; and GCP, ETT with cervical cavities and composite resin posts. After the fiber posts had been cemented with a resin cement and the foundations had been placed, all specimens were quasi statically loaded at 45 degrees in a universal testing machine until fracture. All specimens were evaluated for fracture modes. The data were then analyzed by 1-way ANOVA, followed by multiple comparisons with the Tukey HSD test (α=.05). The mode of failure was determined by visual inspection. RESULTS The mean ±SD failure loads for the groups ranged from 718.2 ±89.8 N to 943.8 ±93.1 N. In a 1-way ANOVA followed by post hoc testing, GGFs had a higher fracture strength than all other groups (P≤.05). However, GCPs had a lower fracture strength than all other groups. Statistically significant differences were observed among groups (P≤.05), except between the GHT group and the GCF and GGF groups (P=.075, P=.226). All groups except GHT showed complete favorable fracture mode within the cervical third of the roots. CONCLUSIONS Within the limitations of this in vitro study, placement of glass fiber posts significantly improved the fracture resistance of endodontically treated maxillary central incisors with cervical cavities.
