Abstract
Background: The present study aimed to classify the relative contributions of four biomechanical factors—the root-end filling material, the apical preparation, the root resection length, and the bone height—on the root stresses of the resected premolar. Methods: A design of experiments approach based on a defined subset of factor combinations was conducted to calculate the influence of each factor and their interactions. Sixteen finite element models were created and analyzed using the von Mises stress criterion. The robustness of the design of experiments was evaluated with nine supplementary models. Results: The current study showed that the factors preparation and bone height had a high influence on root stresses. However, it also revealed that nearly half of the biomechanical impact was missed without considering interactions between factors, particularly between resection and preparation. Conclusions: Design of experiments appears to be a valuable strategy to classify the contributions of biomechanical factors related to endodontics. Imagining all possible interactions and their clinical impact is difficult and can require relying on one’s own experience. This study proposed a statistical method to quantify the mechanical risk when planning apicoectomy. A perspective could be to integrate the equation defined herein in future software to support decision-making.

Abstract
Regenerative endodontic procedures have been rapidly evolving over the past two decades and are employed extensively in clinical endodontics. These procedures have been perceived as valuable adjuvants to conventional strategies in the treatment of necrotic immature permanent teeth that were deemed to have poor prognosis. As a component biological triad of tissue engineering (i.e., stem cells, growth factors and scaffolds), biomaterial scaffolds have demonstrated clinical potential as an armamentarium in regenerative endodontic procedures and achieved remarkable advancements. The aim of the present review is to provide a broad overview of biomaterials employed for scaffolding in regenerative endodontics. The favorable properties and limitations of biomaterials organized in naturally derived, host-derived and synthetic material categories were discussed. Preclinical and clinical studies published over the past five years on the performance of biomaterial scaffolds, as well as current challenges and future perspectives for the application of biomaterials for scaffolding and clinical evaluation of biomaterial scaffolds in regenerative endodontic procedures were addressed in depth. Overview of biomaterials for scaffolding in regenerative endodontics are presented. Findings of preclinical and clinical studies on the performance of biomaterial scaffolds are summarized. Challenges and future prospects in biomaterial scaffolds are discussed.

Abstract
Pulpal and periapical pathosis in an immature anterior tooth following traumatic injury is a frequent occurrence, and management of open apices in such cases poses a constant challenge to endodontists. This is due to the absence of apical constriction that would result in poor three-dimensional seal/adaptation of the obturated material within the canal system. Treatment of immature pulpless teeth with long-term calcium hydroxide may consequently weaken the dentin and increase the fracture susceptibility. Obturating the root canals completely with bioactive agents like Biodentine/mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) has benefits like increased fracture resistance when compared to apexification. When used for obturation, Biodentine™, a new calcium silicate-based cement, performs superior to other Portland cement derivatives. This case report demonstrates a six-month follow-up result of an open apex and a periapical lesion involving maxillary right central incisor #11 with the Biodentine obturation that was previously subjected to triple antibiotic paste as an intra-canal medicament for three weeks. The satisfactory healing rate of tooth 11 with the reduction in the size of periapical radiolucency at the end of the six-month follow-up in this current article is highly considerable.

Abstract
This study investigated the effect of different coronal restorations on the fracture resistance (FR) of immature teeth with simulated regenerative endodontic treatment. A total of 120 lower premolars were divided into eight groups. Except for negative control, the root canals were instrumented with rotary files and Peeso reamers. Fifteen instrumented teeth were acted as positive control (unrestorated). In the remaining 90 teeth, regenerative endodontic treatment procedures were performed. Ninety teeth were randomly divided into 6 groups according to coronal restoration type; Filtek Z550, Filtek Bulk fill Restorative (FBR), SDR+Filtek Z550, EverX+Filtek Z550, Ribbond+FBR and Ribbond+SDR+Filtek Z550. After thermal ageing, the restorated teeth were subjected to vertical loading force. FR values was obtained as follows: Negative control > Ribbond+FBR = Ribbond+SDR+Filtek Z550 > Filtek Z550 = FBR =SDR+Filtek Z550 = EverX+Filtek Z550 > Positive control, (P < 0.05). The use of Ribbond in combination with composite resin enhanced the FR of teeth.

Effect of mineral trioxide aggregate and biodentine™ on fracture resistance of immature teeth dentine over time: in vitro study. Eur Arch Paediatr Dent 2021; 22:603-609. [PMID: 33387346 DOI: 10.1007/s40368-020-00597-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2020] [Accepted: 12/02/2020] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of root filling with White Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (WMTA) and Biodentine™ (BD) on the fracture resistance of simulated immature teeth over different time periods. METHODS Sixty sound-extracted human single-rooted premolars were randomly allocated into 3 groups, 2 experimental and 1 control group, with 20 teeth each. Simulation of roots into immature apices were done using Peeso reamers. After preparation, the root canals of teeth in the experimental groups were completely filled with either WMTA or BD. The control group was subdivided into positive controls (n = 10) which received no treatment and negative controls (n = 10) which were prepared the same way and filled with normal saline. The specimens were subjected to fracture testing using a universal testing machine after 2 weeks and 3 months. The peak load to fracture and the fracture location were recorded. RESULTS Regarding fracture resistance, the MTA group had the highest fracture resistance at 2 weeks testing, while at 3 months there was no significant difference between the groups (P > 0.05). Regarding fracture location, at 2 weeks there was no significant difference in the fracture location between the groups, while at 3 months, the difference was significant (P < 0.05), the middle root fracture being the most frequent (63.3%). CONCLUSION No significant difference in fracture resistant of simulated immature teeth was observed after 3 months when they were filled with Biodentine or WMTA, indicating that Biodentine could be a suitable substitute for MTA. There was no difference in the possible fracture location at 2 weeks, while after 3 months middle root fractures were more frequent.

Abstract
Context: The incidence of root fractures is about 1.2%–7% in permanent teeth and horizontal mid root fractures are most common in maxillary anteriors. Aims: This study aims to evaluate the stress distribution in a maxillary central incisor with mid root fracture after various management protocols using three-dimensional finite element (FE) analysis. Materials and Methods: Four three dimensional FE models were constructed: Model 1-Normal tooth, Model 2-tooth with horizontal mid root fracture, Model 3-tooth with horizontal mid root fracture, coronal fragment filled with Biodentine, and access cavity sealed with composite resin cement and apical fragment left untreated and Model 4-tooth with horizontal mid root fracture restored with intraradicular fiber post as a splint and access cavity sealed with composite resin cement. The properties of materials were assigned and a force of 100 N was applied at 45° angle to the longitudinal axis of the tooth onto the palatal surface incisal to the cingulum. Statistical Analysis: Von-Mises stress along the length of the root analyzed and compared. Results: The maximum stress distribution was observed at the palatal end of the coronal radicular fragment in both without treatment and with biodentine treatment. The stress distribution was concentrated more at the junction of the splinted area in the intraradicular fiber post splinted model. Conclusions: The model with intraradicular fiber post as a splint exhibited more stress concentration at the splinted area due to bending forces. These stresses may adversely affect the healing around the fracture site and affect the longevity.

Abstract
Background Strain distribution was investigated to assess the occlusal resistance alterations in immature teeth under different occlusal force. Methods In vitro apexification models of teeth with a funnel-shaped immature apex were obturated with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA; ProRoot MTA) using different combinations of core materials (10/group): group 1, full-length orthograde obturation of MTA; group 2, a 5-mm MTA apical plug with a composite core; group 3, a 5-mm MTA apical plug and back-filling with warm gutta-percha. Teeth with calcium hydroxide (CH)-medicated canals and untreated teeth with normal apices were tested as controls. The teeth were arranged between two adjacent normal-apex teeth, embedded in a resin mold with a simulated periodontal ligament space. Strain data were recorded from the 3-unit teeth assembly under static compressive occlusal forces (50, 100, 200, and 300 N). Measurements were repeated 20 times for each condition, and the data were statistically analyzed. Results The immature teeth showed altered occlusal force resistance, placing increased strain on adjacent teeth. Teeth with CH-medicated canals showed significantly inferior occlusal resistance under all tested forces (P < 0.05). Application of an MTA plug with deep composite resin core resulted in significantly better stress-bearing capacity especially under forces of 50 and 300 N (P < 0.05). Conclusions The pattern of occlusal force distribution in immature teeth differed according to the canal obturation materials used for apexification. Immature teeth with an MTA apical plug showed more favorable occlusal force resistance than those with CH-medicated canals.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This ex vivo study was performed to investigate the effect of radiotherapy (RT) delivery time on fracture resistance of mandibular premolars filled with Biodentine or gutta-percha/sealer (GPS). MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventy-two mandibular premolars were used in this study. Randomly selected 24 teeth were kept intact for the control groups (with and without irradiation). Then, the remaining 48 teeth were randomly assigned into 4 groups (n = 12) according to RT delivery time (irradiated before or after root canal treatment) and obturation materials as follows: Group RT + GPS, Group: GPS + RT, Group RT + Biodentine and Group Biodentine + RT. The samples were either initially endodontically treated and then irradiated or initially irradiated and then endodontically treated with one of the abovementioned materials. The samples were irradiated at 2 Gy per fraction, 5 times a week for a total dose of 60 Gy in 30 fractions over 6 weeks. The roots were embedded in self-polymerizing acrylic resin. The fracture resistance was evaluated in a universal testing machine. Data was analyzed by one-way ANOVA and Games-Howell post hoc test at p < 0.05. RESULTS Radiation therapy significantly reduced fracture resistance of intact teeth (p < 0.05). The highest fracture resistance was observed in intact/non-irradiated teeth and the lowest fracture resistance in Biodentine + RT group (p < 0.05). The effect of RT delivery time was insignificant when GPS was preferred as the root canal filling material (p > 0.05); it was significant when preferring Biodentine (p < 0.05). When RT was applied to the teeth after Biodentine obturation, the fracture resistance decreased significantly compared to the teeth that were obturated with GPS after or before RT application (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Both RT time and obturation materials (Biodentine or gutta-percha/sealer) affect the fracture resistance of the endodontically treated teeth. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Endodontic treatment could be completed with both materials after RT; however, when the endodontic treatment was initially completed and the teeth were subsequently exposed to RT, it was shown that the reinforcement effect of Biodentine decreased.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the influence of titanium tetrafluoride (TiF4) incorporation on the physicochemical and antibacterial properties of Biodentine (BD; Septodont, Saint Maur des Faussés, France) as an intraorfice barrier material. METHODS Three different proportions of TiF4 powder were used with BD; 1wt%, 2wt%, and 3wt%; respectively. BD without TiF4 addition was used as the control group. The setting time (ST) was determined using Gillmore needle apparatus. Diametral tensile strength (DTS) and fracture resistance were measured in a universal testing machine. Solubility was assessed using mass variation after 7days water storage. The hardness test was conducted using Vickers microhardness tester. The antibacterial activity was assessed using direct contact test against Enterococcus faecalis. Radiopacity was assessed and expressed in thickness of aluminum. Surface topography and elemental composition of modified BD were also assessed. The pH of soaking water was measured up to 168h. Data of tested properties were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance, the paired t-test, two-way repeated measures analysis of variance, and Tukey post hoc tests (P<0.05). RESULTS BD-incorporating 2wt% TiF4 revealed the highest surface microhardness, DTS, and fracture resistance compared with the unmodified group (P<0.001). Higher concentrations of TiF4 (3wt%) compromised the solubility and prolonged the ST of BD (P<0.05). Bacterial growth of BD-incorporating TiF4 was significantly reduced when compared with the control group (P<0.05). The tested materials induced alkalization of the soaking water that decreased with time. SIGNIFICANCE Biodentine-incorporating TiF4 (1wt% and 2wt%) is a promising intraorfice barrier material with enhanced physicochemical and antibacterial properties.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study assessed the fracture resistance (FR) of teeth with simulated perforating internal resorption cavities repaired with different calcium silicate-based cements (CSCs) and backfilling materials. METHODS Ninety-six mandibular premolar teeth were used. Twelve of the teeth were assigned as negative control group. Remaining roots were instrumented with rotary files, and standardized internal resorption cavities were prepared on the middle half of roots with burs. Twelve of the samples were not further interfered and were assigned as a positive control group. The apical 4 mm of the remaining 72 root canals was obturated with single-cone technique and divided into 6 groups according to CSCs used for repairing of cavities and backfilling materials as follows: MTA + MTA, MTA + gutta-percha/sealer, Biodentine + Biodentine, Biodentine + gutta-percha/sealer, MTA Plus + MTA Plus, and MTA Plus + gutta-percha/sealer. Specimens were embedded in acrylic resin and then subjected to fracture testing. The forces when the fracture occurred were analyzed with analysis of variance and Bonferroni tests at P = .05. RESULTS No significant difference was found among CSCs irrespective of backfilling materials (P > .05). Groups MTA + gutta-percha/sealer, Biodentine + gutta-percha/sealer, and MTA Plus + gutta-percha/sealer showed significantly lower FR compared with groups MTA + MTA, Biodentine + Biodentine, and MTA Plus + MTA Plus, respectively (P < .05). The highest FR was observed in group Biodentine + Biodentine, and the lowest was in group MTA Plus + gutta-percha/sealer. FR of positive control group was statistically lower than groups completely filled with CSCs (P < .05), whereas FR of negative control group was statistically higher than the groups combined with gutta-percha and sealer (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS The backfilling with CSCs may be a preferable material rather than gutta-percha/sealer combination for the roots with perforated internal resorptions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Biodentine™ has frequently been acknowledged in the literature as a promising material and serves as an important representative of tricalcium silicate based cements used in dentistry. AIM To provide an update on the physical and biological properties of Biodentine™ and to compare these properties with those of other tricalcium silicate cements namely, different variants of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) such as ProRoot MTA, MTA Angelus, Micro Mega MTA (MM-MTA), Retro MTA, Ortho MTA, MTA Plus, GCMTA, MTA HP and calcium enriched mixture (CEM), Endosequence and Bioaggregate™. STUDY DESIGN A comprehensive literature search for publications from November 20, 2013 to November 20, 2016 was performed by two independent reviewers on Medline (PubMed), Embase, Web of Science, CENTRAL (Cochrane), SIGLE, SciELO, Scopus, Lilacs and clinicaltrials.gov. Electronic and hand search was carried out to identify randomised control trials (RCTs), case control studies, case series, case reports, as well as in vitro and animal studies published in the English language. CONCLUSIONS The enhanced physical and biologic properties of Biodentine™ could be attributed to the presence of finer particle size, use of zirconium oxide as radiopacifier, purity of tricalcium silicate, absence of dicalcium silicate, and the addition of calcium chloride and hydrosoluble polymer. Furthermore, as Biodentine™ overcomes the major drawbacks of MTA it has great potential to revolutionise the different treatment modalities in paediatric dentistry and endodontics especially after traumatic injuries. Nevertheless, high quality long-term clinical studies are required to facilitate definitive conclusions.

Abstract
The aim of this review was to identify and analyse all studies related to the effects of alkaline materials used in dentistry on roots of teeth. The first part of the review focused on mechanical property alterations of root dentine due to sodium hypochlorite (SH) used as an irrigant solution based on MeSH (Medical Subject Heading) terms from a previous study by Pascon et al in 2009. The second part reviewed literature on calcium hydroxide (CH), mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and other alkaline materials used as root canal dressings or filling materials. Additional MeSH terms used included "compressive strength", "elastic modulus" "flexural strength", "fracture strength" and "fracture resistance". The language filter was English. Of the initial 205 articles identified, 49 were included in this review, of which 29 were on SH, 21 on CH/MTA, and 1 relating to both. Many in vitro studies indicated a strong link between reduced mechanical properties of roots of teeth or radicular dentine treated with SH, and when sealers or root fillings with CH- or MTA-based materials were placed in contact with roots or radicular dentine. Recent literature indicates that the association between reduced mechanical properties and alkaline sealers and/or root-filling materials is not as straightforward as previously assumed, and requires further investigation using more valid experimental models.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objectives of this study were to compare the fracture resistance of simulated human immature teeth that have undergone mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) apexification and have been root-filled with fiber post, composite resin, MTA, or gutta-percha. METHODS Fifty-six human permanent maxillary incisors were selected. Ten teeth received no treatment (intact teeth group). The root canals of 46 teeth were prepared to an internal diameter of 1.75 mm. Six teeth were used as simulated immature teeth group. The remaining teeth received MTA apexification and were divided into 4 groups: MTA, fiber post, composite resin, and gutta-percha groups. The root canals of each group were filled with each test material. All teeth were thermocycled and received cyclic loading before compression testing by an Instron universal testing machine. The load to fracture was recorded. Data were subjected to statistical analysis by using one-way analysis of variance and Tukey multiple comparison test. RESULTS All teeth fractured at the cervical area of the root. The mean load to fracture of the intact tooth, MTA, fiber post, composite resin, gutta-percha, and the simulated immature tooth groups was 1988 N, 1921 N, 1691 N, 1623 N, 1476 N, and 962 N, respectively. Statistically, load to fracture of the simulated immature tooth group was significantly lower than in the intact tooth, MTA, fiber post, and composite resin groups but was not significantly different from the gutta-percha group. CONCLUSIONS Within the limit of this study, after MTA apexification, intraradicular reinforcement with MTA, fiber post, or composite resin increased the fracture resistance of simulated immature teeth.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the fracture resistance of simulated immature teeth after internal bleaching. The teeth were assigned as follows (n = 12/group); Group-1: The pulp chamber was filled with ProRootMTA and bleached intracoronally with sodium perborate mixed with 37% carbamide peroxide gel; Group-2: The pulp chamber was filled with ProRootMTA without bleaching; Group-3: The pulp chamber was filled with Biodentine and bleached intracoronally as Group-1; Group-4: The pulp chamber was filled with Biodentine without bleaching; and Group-5: Teeth received no intervention (control). The specimens were loaded vertically until root fracture occurred. The data were analysed with Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn tests. There was no significant difference between the fracture resistances of the experimental groups (P > 0.05). However, all experimental groups had significantly lower fracture resistance than the control group (P < 0.05). Neither the tested calcium silicate cements nor the bleaching procedures had a significant impact on fracture resistance values.

Abstract
Background/purpose Teeth with internal resorption are susceptible to fracture because of the remaining thin dentinal walls. The aim of this study was to investigate the fracture resistance of roots with simulated internal resorption cavities and obturated with different hybrid techniques. Materials and methods Seventy single root canals were instrumented. On the coronal half of the roots, standardized internal cavities with a length of 8 mm were created. The apical 6 mm of the 60 root canals were filled with AH Plus sealer and gutta-percha cones. Then, 80 roots were divided into four experimental groups and two control groups according to the internal cavity obturation: Group 1, AHPlus sealer + high-temperature thermoplasticized injectable gutta-percha; Group 2, DiaRoot Bioaggregate; Group 3, Biodentine; Group 4, MTA Fillapex; Group 5, instrumented, but not obturated roots; Group 6, intact roots. A compressive vertical loading at a speed of 1 mm/min was applied to the roots. The forces when the fracture occurred were statistically analyzed with one-way analysis of variance and post hoc Tukey test. Results Biodentine group showed statistically higher resistance to fracture than the other experimental groups (P < 0.05). Conclusion Filling the internal resorption cavities with thin dentinal walls using Biodentine may provide strength to the tooth structure more than the other calcium silicate-based materials.

Abstract
Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the fracture resistance of simulated immature teeth, when the root canals were completely filled either with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) or Biodentine, comparing with that of roots filled with apexification procedure. Materials and Methods: Sixty mandibular premolar teeth with single, straight canals decoronated at cementoenamel junction were divided into five groups (n = 12 each). Group 1 samples served as negative control and remaining four groups root samples were shaped and cleaned using ProTaper rotary files. To simulate immature roots, a #5 Peeso reamer was passed beyond the apex so that apices were enlarged to a diameter of 1.5 mm. Group 2 and 4 samples were filled with 5 mm of MTA or Biodentine apical plug and backfilling with gutta-percha using AH Plus sealer. Group 3 and 5 root samples were completely obturated with MTA and Biodentine, respectively. All the teeth were loaded vertically until fracture, using the universal testing machine. Statistical Analysis: Forces at which fracture of the roots occurred were subjected to statistical analysis using SPSS/PC version 2 software, and the results were analyzed with the one-way analysis of variance and Newman–Keuls multiple post hoc test. Results: Complete root canal obturation with MTA or Biodentine has shown significantly higher fracture resistance (P < 0.05) when compared to apexification with MTA or Biodentine. Conclusion: Obturation of the root canals with bioactive materials has shown highest fracture resistance when compared to apexification groups.

Long-Term Fracture Resistance of Simulated Immature Teeth Filled with Various Calcium Silicate-Based Materials. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2016; 2016:2863817. [PMID: 27382564 PMCID: PMC4921621 DOI: 10.1155/2016/2863817] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2016] [Revised: 04/16/2016] [Accepted: 05/18/2016] [Indexed: 01/20/2023]
Abstract
Objective. The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the long-term fracture resistance of simulated human immature permanent teeth filled with BioAggregate™ (BA), mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), and EndoSequence® Root Repair Material (ERRM). Material and Methods. 40 teeth, simulated to average root length of 13 ± 1 mm (Cvek's stage 3), were included in the study. The teeth were randomly divided into four groups: Group 1: DiaRoot® BA, Group 2: MTA-Plus™ (MTA-P), Group 3: MTA-Angelus (MTA-A), and Group 4: ERRM. The root canal filling materials were applied according to the manufacturers' instructions. After 24 months of incubation, the roots of the teeth were embedded in acrylic blocks and subjected to fracture testing. The resultant data were analyzed statistically by Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U tests. Results. Mean (±SD) failure loads (MPa) were 20.46 ± 2.53 for BA, 18.88 ± 5.13 for MTA-P, 14.12 ± 1.99 for MTA-A, and 17.65 ± 4.28 for ERRM groups. BA group exhibited the highest and MTA-A group showed the lowest resistance to fracture. Significant differences in fracture resistance were found between the groups of BA and MTA-A (p < 0.001), MTA-P and MTA-A (p < 0.05), and ERRM and MTA-A (p < 0.05). Conclusion. Within the limitations of this study, data suggests that BA-filled immature teeth demonstrate higher fracture resistance than other groups at 24 months appearing to be the most promising material tested.
