Abstract
Tooth isolation is essential to isolate a prepared tooth from saliva, oral humidity, and gingival fluids and facilitate the removal of excess subgingival cement in adhesive cementation procedures. However, the isolation of prepared teeth can be challenging, especially with vertical preparations. A technique for achieving relative isolation by using polytetrafluoroethylene tape is described for adhesive cementation with vertical tooth preparations.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the marginal adaptation and fracture resistance of three computer-aided design/computer-assisted manufacturing hybrid dental materials with different occlusal thicknesses. METHODS Ninety single-molar crowns were digitally fabricated using a milled hybrid nanoceramic (Cerasmart, CE), polymer-infiltrated ceramic network (PICN, Vita Enamic, VE), and 3D-printed materials (Varseosmile, VS) with occlusal thicknesses of 0.8, 1, and 1.5 mm (10 specimens/group). Anatomical 3D-printed resin dies (Rigid 10K) were used as supporting materials. A CEREC MCX milling unit and a DLP-based 3D printer, Freeform Pro 2, were utilized to produce the crown samples. Before cementation, the marginal adaptation, absolute marginal discrepancy (AMD), and marginal gap (MG) were assessed using micro-CT scanning. After cementation with self-adhesive resin cement, fracture resistance was evaluated using a universal testing machine. The number of fractured crowns and the maximum fracture values (N) were recorded. Data were statistically analyzed using both one- and two-way ANOVA, followed by Tukey's honestly significant difference (HSD) test. RESULTS For all occlusal thicknesses, the VS crowns demonstrated the lowest AMD and MG distances, significantly different from those of the other two milling groups (P < 0.05), whereas CE and VE did not differ significantly (P > 0.05). All VS crowns were fractured using the lowest loading forces (1480.3±226.1 to 1747.2±108.7 N). No CE and 1 and 1.5 mm VE crowns fractured under a 2000 N maximum load. CONCLUSIONS All hybrid-material crowns demonstrated favorable marginal adaptation within a clinically acceptable range, with 3D printing yielding superior results to milling. All materials could withstand normal occlusal force even with a 0.8 mm occlusal thickness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Determination of the eligibility of several tooth analog materials for use in crown fracture testing. METHODS A standardized premolar crown preparation was replicated into three types of resin dies (C&B, low modulus 3D printed resin; OnX, high modulus 3D printed resin composite; and highest modulus milled resin composite). 0.8 mm zirconia crowns were bonded to the dies and the maximum fracture load of the crowns was tested. Twelve extracted human premolars were prepared to a standardized crown preparation, and duplicate dies of the prepared teeth were 3D printed out of C&B. Zirconia crowns were bonded to both the dies and natural teeth, and their fracture load was tested. RESULTS There was no statistical difference between the fracture load of zirconia crowns bonded to standardized dies of C&B (1084.5 ± 134.2 N), OnX (1112.7 ± 109.8 N) or Lava Ultimate (1137.5 ± 88.7 N) (p = 0.580). There was no statistical difference between the fracture load of crowns bonded to dentin dies (1313 ± 240 N) and a 3D-printed resin die (C&B, 1156 ± 163 N) (p = 0.618). CONCLUSIONS There was no difference in the static fracture load of zirconia crowns bonded to standardized resin dies with different moduli or between a low modulus resin die and natural dentin die.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this investigation was to compare the fracture resistance of chairside computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) lithium disilicate-reinforced ceramic occlusal veneers with and without margin and traditional full coverage premolar crowns. METHODS AND MATERIALS A total of 60 chairside CAD/CAM lithium disilicate-reinforced ceramic (Amber Mill, Hass Bio) restorations were designed and fabricated with a chairside CAD/CAM system (CEREC Dentsply Sirona). The restorations were divided into three groups (n=20): 1) occlusal veneer with 1.0-mm uniform occlusal thickness and with chamfer margin; 2) occlusal veneer with 1.0-mm uniform occlusal thickness and without margin; and 3) full coverage crown with uniform occlusal thickness and gingival margin. Occlusal veneers and crowns were cemented with dual cured resin luting cement (Multilink, Ivoclar Vivadent) to printed resin dies, load cycled (5 million load cycles at 1 Hz with 275 N force), and then loaded until fracture. Load at break (LB) and peak load (PL) until fracture were recorded. Scanning electron microscope images of the tested restorations on the abutments were obtained. RESULTS Fracture strengths were different depending on the design of the restoration. There was no significant difference in fracture strength between the two types of occlusal veneer (LB: 1132.45 N; PL: 1143.30 N for veneers with margin; LB: 1149.25 N; PL: 1219.05 N for veneers without margin). Full coverage crowns showed the lowest fracture resistance (LB: 936.26 N, PL: 976.42 N), which was significantly lower than both designs of occlusal veneer. CONCLUSIONS The fracture resistance of the CAD/CAM lithium disilicate-reinforced ceramic restorations was influenced by the design. Occlusal veneers with and without margin displayed higher fracture resistance than traditional crowns.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the influence of restoration design (partial-coverage restoration vs. crown) and ceramic layer thickness on the performance and failure loads of CAD/CAM-fabricated lithium disilicate (LDS) reconstructions on molars after fatigue. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventy-two posterior monolithic CAD/CAM-fabricated LDS restorations (IPS e.max CAD, Ivoclar Vivadent) with different occlusal/buccal ceramic layer thicknesses (1.5/0.8, 1.0/0.6, and 0.5/0.4 mm) and restoration designs (PCR: non-retentive full-veneer/partial-coverage restoration, C: crown,) were investigated and divided into six groups (n = 12, test: PCR-1.5, PCR-1.0, PCR-0.5; control: C-1.5, C-1.0, C-0.5). LDS restorations were adhesively bonded (Variolink Esthetic DC, Ivoclar Vivadent) to dentin-analogue composite dies (Z100, 3M ESPE). All specimens were subjected to thermomechanical loading (1.2 million cycles, 49 N, 1.6 Hz, 5-55°C) and exposed to single load to failure testing. Failure analysis was performed with light and scanning electron microscopies. Data were statistically analyzed using ANOVA, Tukey-Test, and t-test (p < 0.05). RESULTS Eight crown samples (C-0.5) and one PCR specimen (PCR-0.5) revealed cracks after fatigue, resulting in an overall success rate of 87.5% (crowns: 75%, PCRs: 96.88%). Direct comparisons of PCRs versus crowns for thicknesses of 0.5 mm (p < 0.001) and 1.0 mm (p = 0.004) were significant and in favor of PCRs. Minimally invasive PCRs (0.5 and 1.0 mm) outperformed crowns with the identical ceramic thickness. No difference was detected (p = 0.276) between thickness 1.5 mm PCRs and crowns. CONCLUSIONS Minimally invasive monolithic CAD/CAM-fabricated posterior LDS PCRs (0.5 and 1.0 mm) resulted in superior failure load values compared to minimally invasive crowns. Minimally invasive crowns (0.5 mm) are prone to cracks after fatigue. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Minimally invasive CAD/CAM-fabricated LDS PCR restorations with a non-retentive preparation design should be considered over single crowns for molar rehabilitation.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to investigate the effect of modified framework (MF) design on the fracture resistance of IPS e.max Press anterior single crown after thermocycling and cyclic loading. MATERIALS AND METHODS Two types of IPS e.max Press frameworks were designed (n = 10); standard framework (SF) with a 0.5 mm uniform thickness and MF with a lingual margin of 1 mm in thickness and 2 mm in height connected to a proximal strut of 4 mm height and a 0.3 mm wide facial collar. The crowns were cemented to resin dies, subjected to 5,000 cycles of thermocycling, and loaded 10,000 cycles at 100 N. A universal testing machine was used to load specimens to fracture, and the modes of failure were determined. RESULTS The mean and standard deviation (SD) of fracture resistance were 219.24 ± 110.00 N and 216.54 ±120.02 N in the SF and MF groups. Thus, there was no significant difference (p = 0.96). Mixed fracture was the most common failure mode in both groups. We found no statistically significant difference between the groups (p = 0.58). CONCLUSION The MF design did not increase the fracture resistance of IPS e.max Press crown. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Framework design is an essential factor for the success of all-ceramic restorations and its modification might be regarded as an approach to increase fracture resistance. Furthermore, the modified design was evaluated in metal-ceramic or zirconia crowns while less attention was paid to the IPS e.max Press crowns.

Alghazzawi TF. A Comparison of Failure Loads for Polycrystalline Zirconia Ceramics with Varying Amounts of Yttria, Glass-Ceramics and Polymers in Two Different Test Conditions. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:4506.

Abstract
It is unclear how zirconia dental crowns with different yttria compositions will perform clinically, and how they will compare with crowns made of glass-ceramics and polymers. The present objective was to determine failure loads of crowns and discs made of glass ceramics or polymers as compared to yttria-partially stabilized zirconia (Y-PSZ) crowns and discs with varying yttria concentrations. Crowns of zirconia (Cercon XT, Katana UTML, BruxZir Anterior), glass ceramic (Celtra press, IPS e.max press, Lisi press), and polymeric materials (Trilor, Juvora, Pekkton) were fabricated and cemented to epoxy abutments. The total number of specimens was 135 for crowns and 135 for discs (n = 15 specimens per material type and design). A universal testing machine was used to perform compressive loading of crowns/discs to failure with a steel piston along the longitudinal axis of the abutments. Energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) was used to identify the yttria concentration for each zirconia brand. The data were analyzed using generalized linear models and regression analyses. The results revealed significant differences (p < 0.05) in mean failure loads for different crown materials: Trilor (6811 ± 960 N) > Juvora (5215 ± 151 N) > Cercon (4260 ± 520 N) = BruxZir (4186 ± 269 N) = e.max (3981 ± 384 N) > Katana (3195 ± 350 N) = Lisi (3173 ± 234 N) = Pekkton (3105 ± 398 N) > Celtra (2696 ± 393 N). The general linear model revealed significant differences (p < 0.05) in mean failure loads when comparing the different materials for the discs, i.e., Trilor (5456 ± 1748 N) > Juvora (4274 ± 869 N) > Pekkton (3771 ± 294 N) > Katana (2859 ± 527 N) > Cercon (2319 ± 342 N) = BuxZir (2250 ± 515 N) = e.max (2303 ± 721 N) = Lisi (2333 ± 535 N) > Celtra (1965 ± 659 N). EDS showed that the zirconia materials contained yttria at different concentrations (BruxZir = 5Y-PSZ, Cercon = 4Y-PSZ, Katana = 3Y-PSZ). The yttria concentration had a significant effect on the failure load of the Katana (3Y-PSZ) crowns, which revealed lower failure loads than the Cercon (4Y-PSZ) and BruxZir (5Y-PSZ) crowns, whose failure loads were comparable or higher than e.max glass ceramic. The failure load of the trilayer disc specimens did not correlate with the failure load of the respective crown specimens for the zirconia, glass-ceramic and polymeric materials.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This work analyzed and compared the mechanical properties of identical cracked tooth models treated with different materials and crown parameters. Thus, to provide dentists with a more structured way to select materials and geometric parameters and determine the strongest restoration model for cracked teeth. METHODS This work used finite element analysis (FEA). We applied 25 restorative models, including five restorative materials, and three preparation parameters. Seven mechanical properties of the cracked tooth preparation were analyzed using correlation analysis. RESULTS The highest lifetime of the cracked preparation was obtained for crowns with a 5° of polymerization, width = 0.8 mm, and a length offset of 0.2 mm. The highest lifetime was obtained with ZC crown material, but the least deformation of the cracked tip was obtained with LU material. SIGNIFICANCE The results showed that the larger MOE material for the crown and a reasonable increase in the thickness and length of the crown is a favorable method to prevent further cracks to extend. This FEA study, thereby forming a novel basis for clinical guidance as to preparation of dental crowns applicable to cracked teeth.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the probability of survival of crowns made with a 3Y-TZP, a 5Y-TZP, and a lithium disilicate. MATERIALS AND METHODS CAD-CAM premolar crowns with occlusal thicknesses of 1.0 mm or 1.5 mm and cemented on a metal dye. Step-stress accelerated life testing (SSALT) was performed to access the use level probability Weibull curves and reliability were calculated for the completion of a mission of 100,000 cycles at 300 to 1200 N. RESULTS All ceramics showed a high probability of survival (87-99%) at 300 N, irrespective of thickness. 3Y-TZP shows no significant decrease in the probability of survival up to 1200 N (83-96%). Lithium disilicate presented lower reliability than zirconia under the 600 N mission. 5Y-TZP showed lower reliability than 3Y-TZP at 1200 N. There was no significant difference in the Weibull modulus (3.23-7.12). 3Y-TZP had the highest characteristic strength (2483-2972 N), followed by 5Y-TZP (1512-1547 N) and lithium disilicate (971-1154 N). CONCLUSION Zirconia ceramics have a high probability of survival (up to 900 N-load), while lithium disilicate survives up to 300 N load only, irrespective of the thickness (1.0 mm or 1.5 mm). CLINICAL RELEVANCE The probability of survival of posterior crowns made with zirconia ceramics resists extreme loads while glass ceramics resist normal chewing loads. In addition, crowns with thinner occlusal face showed sufficient mechanical behavior.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the fatigue behavior of lithium disilicate crowns with a simplified anatomy against progressive cement/ceramic debonding scenarios. MATERIALS AND METHODS Lithium disilicate crowns were fabricated via CAD/CAM and luted onto a dentin analogue material using resin cement following the manufacturer's instructions. Then, the different crown regions were isolated with paraffin oil for the absence of chemical adhesion according to four experimental groups (n = 15): Shoulder; Shoulder + Axial; Fully isolated; and Control (no insulation/fully bonded). Load to failure tests (n = 3) were run to determine cyclic fatigue parameters, and the specimens were subsequently submitted to a cyclic fatigue test (n = 12) (initial load 200 N for 5000 cycles, step 100 N, 15,000 cycles/step, frequency 20 Hz) until cracks were observed, and later fracture. The data were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier + Mantel-Cox post-hoc tests for both outcomes (cracks and fracture). Fractographic, cross-sectional surface, and finite element (FEA) analyzes were performed. RESULTS When it comes to crack occurrence when the chemical adhesion to the occlusal surface is compromised, there is worsening (p < 0.05) in fatigue behavior compared to groups where the occlusal portion of the crown is still bonded. Considering fracture occurrence, there was no difference (p > 0.05) among the tested groups. All cracks occurred in the occlusal portion, first as a radial crack at the ceramic intaglio surface, and posteriorly unleashing a Hertzian cone crack at the top surface, resulting in fractures on the frontal walls. The interface analysis showed no interference of the insulating agent. FEA showed that as the isolated areas increased, there was also an increase in both tensile and shear stresses concentration in the crown and in the cement layer. CONCLUSION The chemical adhesion between cement and ceramic is essential for better fatigue behavior of lithium disilicate crowns with a simplified anatomy, especially in the occlusal portion, but the restoration performance is impaired when such adhesion is compromised. There is an increase in crown and cement stress concentration with the progressive loss of chemical bonding of the crown's walls.

Abstract
Background/purpose Clenching is a dental parafunctional disorder that jeopardizes the life of teeth and/or dental prostheses. Computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM)-fabricated or 3-dimensional-printed dental prostheses are aesthetic, strong, and of good quality, but noticeable damage can still be observed after clenching. Stress analysis of synthetic ceramic assemblies with various parameters was conducted to provide data that may be used to improve the fabrication of CAD/CAM-fabricated dental prostheses. Materials and methods Abaqus software was used to run the simulations. A total of 96 axisymmetric finite element ceramic assembly models were simulated under 800 N vertical loading and different contact radii (0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0 mm), materials (IPS e.max CAD and Vita Enamic), layer thicknesses and combinations. Results Four-layered ceramic assembly models produced promising results with the following parameters: contact radius of at least 0.5 mm, total thickness of at least 0.5 mm, and use of IPS e.max CAD as the first layer and Vita Enamic as the second layer without cement. Conclusion The ideal four-layered assembly model design uses 0.25-mm-thick IPS e.max CAD as its outer layer to simulate enamel binding and 0.25-mm-thick Vita Enamic as its inner layer to imitate the natural tooth. This design may be used as reference for prosthodontic treatment.

Abstract
This study uses fracture tests and fractographical analysis to compare computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) lithium disilicate molar crowns with the previous occlusal thickness recommendation of 1.5-mm, the new recommendation of 1.0-mm, and a less invasive thickness of 0.8-mm. After fatigue application, fracture tests and fractographic analysis were conducted. The fracture resistance of CAD/CAM lithium disilicate molar crowns was different depending on the occlusal thickness of the restoration, and decreased with lower the thickness. However, the fracture resistance of crowns of all three thicknesses exceeded the reported maximum bite force in the first molar region after the fatigue process, and can be considered acceptable for use in the clinic.

Load-to-Failure Resistance and Optical Characteristics of Nano-Lithium Disilicate Ceramic after Different Aging Processes. MATERIALS 2022; 15:ma15114011. [PMID: 35683309 PMCID: PMC9182075 DOI: 10.3390/ma15114011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2022] [Revised: 06/02/2022] [Accepted: 06/02/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to compare the load-to-failure resistance and optical properties of nano-lithium disilicate (NLD) with lithium disilicate (LDS) and zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate (ZLS) in different aging processes. Thirty crowns were milled from NLD, LDS, and ZLS (n = 10). All crowns were subjected to thermomechanical aging and loaded until catastrophic failure. Ten specimens from each material were prepared in two different thicknesses (0.7 mm and 1.5 mm, n = 5), and color coordinates were measured before and after coffee thermocycling. Color differences (ΔE00) and relative translucency parameter (RTP) were calculated. Data were analyzed by using ANOVA and Bonferroni-corrected t-tests (α = 0.05). ZLS had the highest load-to-failure resistance (p ≤ 0.002), while the difference between LDS and NLD was nonsignificant (p = 0.776). The interaction between material type and thickness affected ΔE00 (p < 0.001). Among the 0.7 mm thick specimens, ZLS had the lowest ΔE00 (p < 0.001). Furthermore, 1.5 mm thick ZLS had lower ΔE00 than that of 1.5 mm thick LDS (p = 0.036). Other than ZLS (p = 0.078), 0.7 mm thick specimens had higher ΔE00 (p < 0.001). The interaction between material type, thickness, and thermocycling affected RTP (p < 0.001). Thinner specimens presented higher RTP (p < 0.001). NLD and LDS had higher RTP than ZLS (p ≤ 0.036). However, 0.7 mm thick specimens had similar RTP after coffee thermocycling (p ≥ 0.265). Coffee thermocycling reduced the RTP values of 0.7 mm thick NLD (p = 0.032) and LDS (p = 0.008). NLD may endure the occlusal forces present in the posterior region. However, long-term coffee consumption may impair the esthetics of restorations particularly when thin NLD is used.

MATERIALS 2021; 14:ma14216476.

Abstract
This study assesses the effect of the material type (lithium disilicate, zirconia, and polymer-infiltrated ceramic) and dental bonding substrates (dentin, dentin with intra-coronal cavity, and dentin with composite filling) on the fracture resistance and failure mode of molars restored by occlusal veneers. Methods: Ninety occlusal veneers, fabricated from either lithium disilicate, zirconia, or polymer-infiltrated ceramic, were adhesively bonded to teeth prepared with either dentin, dentin with intra-coronal cavity, or dentin with composite filling. All specimens were thermally aged (5000 cycles), then load cycled (120,000 cycles). Each specimen was subjected to a compressive load through fracture, then was examined (×20) to identify the fracture type. Data were statistically analyzed. Results: Material type and dental substrate had no significant effect on the fracture resistance of adhesively retained occlusal veneer restorations. For each material, no significant differences were found between veneers bonded to dentin, dentin with intra-coronal cavity, and dentin with composite filling. Additionally, within each bonding substrate, there were no significant differences between lithium disilicate, zirconia, and polymer-infiltrated ceramic veneers. The adhesive failure was recorded mainly with zirconia occlusal veneer restorations. Conclusions: Considering the fracture results, lithium disilicate, zirconia, and polymer-infiltrated ceramic occlusal veneers perform well whatever the type of dental bonding surface. When the dental bonding surface varies, different occlusal veneer materials should be considered. Occlusal veneers bonded to dentin, dentin with composite filling, or dentin with an intra-coronal cavity exhibited a fracture resistance exceeding the average human masticatory forces in the molar area.

Resistance to Fracture of Lithium Disilicate Feldspathic Restorations Manufactured Using a CAD/CAM System and Crystallized with Different Thermal Units and Programs. MATERIALS 2021; 14:ma14123215. [PMID: 34200881 PMCID: PMC8230546 DOI: 10.3390/ma14123215] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2021] [Revised: 06/08/2021] [Accepted: 06/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/02/2022]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the resistance to fracture of feldspathic restorations with lithium disilicate and crystallized with different ovens and programs. Methods: Sixty monolithic restorations (LD) (EMAX CAD™ LT, Ivoclar-Vivadent™) were designed with the same parameters and milled with a CAD/CAM system (CEREC SW 5.1, CEREC MCXL, Dentsply-Sirona™, Bensheim). Each restoration was randomly assigned by randomization software (RANDNUM) to one of the three groups: (a) (NF) Oven P310 (Ivoclar, Vivadent) normal crystallization program, (b) (FF) Ivoclar P310 oven (Ivoclar-Vivadent™) rapid crystallization program, or (c) (SF) SpeedFire oven (Dentsply-Sirona™). Results: There were statistically significant differences between the groups (ANOVA, p < 0.05). The NF and FF groups showed the highest values of resistance to fracture, with statistically significant differences with the SF group. Conclusions: Using a furnace from the same dental company with predetermined programs from the material manufacturer, as well as using a predetermined program for rapid crystallization, has no effect on fracture resistance, and would save clinical time when performing ceramic restorations with lithium disilicate, while keeping their mechanical properties.

Abstract
Objectives To evaluate the clinical performance of partial glass-ceramic (IPS e.max Press) posterior restorations. Materials and methods A total of 765 restorations in 158 patients were placed between 2008 and 2018 and evaluated in a prospective study during regular dental care visits between 2015 and 2018. The restorations were luted with a conventional photo-polymerized resin composite (HFO) in conjunction with an Immediate Dentin Sealing procedure (IDS). Intra-oral photographs and radiographs were made and evaluated using USPHS criteria. Results The mean observation time was 53.3 months (range 3–113 months). Three absolute failures occurred (tooth fractures, n = 2; apical re-infection, n = 1) all leading to the loss of the restored tooth. Repairable and salvageable failures occurred in 9 teeth (endodontic complications, n = 7; secondary caries, n = 1; debonding, n = 1). The survival and success rates according to Kaplan-Meier after 5 years cumulated to 99.6% and 98.6%, respectively. Location (premolar/molar and mandibula/maxilla), pre-restorative endodontic status (vital/devitalised) and extension of the indirect ceramic restoration (number of sides and cusps involved) did not significantly affect the cumulative success rate (log rank test, p > 0.05). The condition of the vast majority of the restorations remained unaffected for 5 years. Conclusions Partial glass-ceramic posterior restorations (pressed lithium disilicate (IPS e.max press, Ivoclar Vivadent) luted by means of a conventional photo-polymerized resin composite in conjunction with the use of an IDS procedure have an excellent medium-term prognosis. Clinical relevance Partial glass-ceramic posterior restorations can be considered as a highly reliable treatment option. Location and extension of the restoration and pre-restorative endodontic status do not affect success rate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the effect of simulated endodontic access preparation on the failure loads of lithium disilicate crowns and resin-matrix ceramic (RMC) crowns. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty maxillary first premolar crowns were manufactured by using four different CAD/CAM blocks (n = 20): lithium disilicate (LD; IPS e.max CAD), resin nanoceramic (RNC; Lava Ultimate), flexible nanaoceramic (FNC; GC Cerasmart), and polymer-infiltrated ceramic (PIC; VITA Enamic). Half of each group was accessed and repaired to simulate endodontic treatment. After cyclic loading, all specimens were loaded to failure. Data were analyzed with two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey-HSD test (α = .05). RESULTS The load to failure results showed significant differences for material types (P < .001), but not for endodontic access simulation (P = .09). The highest and lowest mean failure loads were obtained for LD (1546 N) and PIC (843 N), respectively. CONCLUSION The endodontic access preparation was not found to affect the fracture strength of LD and RMC crowns. The LD showed higher fracture strength than RMC crowns. Even though significant differences were noted for failure loads regarding different crown materials, all could reasonably withstand masticatory forces. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The endodontic access preparation through a restoration is known to be a common challenge in clinical practice. Maintaining a repaired LD or RMC crown is feasible and replacement may not be necessary.
