How do different intraoral scanners and milling machines affect the fit and fatigue behavior of lithium disilicate and resin composite endocrowns? J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2024; 155:106557. [PMID: 38657286 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2024.106557] [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: 02/27/2024] [Revised: 04/03/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 04/26/2024]
Abstract
The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of the combinations of two different intraoral scanners (IOS), two milling machines, and two restorative materials on the marginal/internal fit and fatigue behavior of endocrowns produced by CAD-CAM. Eight groups (n= 10) were considered through the combination of TRIOS 3 (TR) or Primescan (PS) IOS; 4-axes (CR; CEREC MC XL) or 5-axes (PM; PrograMill PM7) milling machines; and lithium disilicate (LD; IPS e.max CAD) or resin composite (RC; Tetric CAD) restorative materials. Specific surface treatments were applied to each material, and the bonding to its corresponding Endocrown-shaped fiberglass-reinforced epoxy resin preparations was performed (Variolink Esthetic DC). Computed microtomography (μCT) was performed to assess the marginal/internal fit, as well as a mechanical fatigue test (20 Hz, initial load = 100 N/5000 cycles; step-size = 50 N/10,000 cycles until a threshold of 1500 N, then, the step-size was increased if needed to 100 N/10,000 cycles until failure or a threshold of 2800 N) to evaluate the restorations long-term behavior. Complementary analysis of the fracture features and surface topography in scanning electron microscopy was performed. Three-way ANOVA and Kaplan-Meier test (α = 0.05) were performed for marginal/internal fit, and fatigue behavior data, respectively. PS scanner, CR milling machine, and RC endocrowns resulted in a better marginal fit compared to their counterparts. Still, the PM machine resulted in a better pulpal space fit compared to the CR milling machine. Regardless of the scanner and milling machine, RC endocrowns exhibited superior fatigue behavior than LD ones. LD endocrowns presented margin chipping regardless of the milling machine used. Despite minor differences in terms of fit, the 'IOS' and 'milling machine' factors did not impair the fatigue behavior of endocrowns. Resin-composite restorations resulted in a higher survival rate compared to glass-ceramic ones, independently of the digital devices used in the workflow.

The influence of Zircos-E® etchant, silica coating, and alumina air-particle abrasion on the debonding resistance of endocrowns with three different preparation designs. Clin Exp Dent Res 2024; 10:e901. [PMID: 38770577 PMCID: PMC11106642 DOI: 10.1002/cre2.901] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2024] [Revised: 04/25/2024] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The study aimed to evaluate the debonding resistance of three different endocrown designs on molar teeth, using three different zirconia surface pretreatments. MATERIAL AND METHOD Ninety human mandibular first molars were divided into three main groups: endocrowns without ferrule, with 1 mm ferrule, and with 2 mm ferrule. The subgroups were defined by their surface pretreatment method used (n = 15): 50 μm alumina air-particle abrasion, silica coating using 30 μm Cojet™ particles, and Zircos-E® etching. The endocrowns were fabricated using multilayer zirconia ceramic, cemented with self-adhesive resin cement, and subjected to 5000 thermocycles (5-55°C) before debonding. The data obtained were analyzed using a two-way ANOVA. RESULTS All test specimens survived the thermocyclic aging. The results indicated that both the preparation design and the surface treatment had a significant impact on the resistance to debonding of the endocrowns (p < .001). The 2 mm ferrule followed by the 1 mm ferrule designs exhibited the highest debonding resistance, both were superior to the endocrown without ferrule. Zircos-E® etching and silica coating yielded comparable debonding resistance, which were significantly higher than alumina air-particle abrasion. All endocrowns demonstrated a favorable failure mode. CONCLUSIONS All designs and surface treatments showed high debonding resistance for a single restoration. However, ferrule designs with Zircos-E® etching or silica coating may represent better clinical options compared to the nonferrule design or alumina airborne-particle abrasion. Nonetheless, further research, including fatigue testing and evaluations with different luting agents is recommended.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The impression technique highly influences the adaptation of ceramic restorations. Not enough information is available to compare the marginal (MF) and internal fit (IF) of endocrowns fabricated with various digitization techniques. Therefore, this in-vitro study aimed to compare the MF and IF of lithium disilicate (LDS) endocrowns fabricated through direct and indirect digital scanning methods. MATERIALS AND METHODS One extracted maxillary molar was used to fabricate endocrowns. The digitization of the model was performed with (G1) direct scanning (n = 10) utilizing an intraoral scanner (IOS), (G2) indirectly scanning the conventional impression taken from the model using the same IOS (n = 10), (G3) indirectly digitalizing the obtained impression using an extraoral scanner (EOS) (n = 10), and (G4) scanning the poured cast using the same EOS (n = 10). The MF and IF of the endocrowns were measured using the replica method and a digital stereomicroscope. The Kruskal-Wallis test was used to analyze data. RESULTS The studied groups differed significantly (p<0.001). G2 (130.31±7.87 μm) and G3 (48.43±19.14 μm) showed the largest and smallest mean vertical marginal gap, respectively. G2 and G3 led to the highest and lowest internal gaps in all regions, respectively. With significant differences among the internal regions (p<0.001), the pulpal area demonstrated the most considerable misfit in all groups. CONCLUSIONS Scanning the impression using an extraoral scanner showed smaller marginal and internal gaps.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate how various tooth preparation designs impact the adaptation-both at the margins and internally-and the retentive strength of computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) produced endocrowns. MATERIALS AND METHODS 60 extracted human mandibular first molars were endodontically treated and assigned into three groups (n = 20) according to the tooth preparation design: Group N: butt joint design, Group F and F1 received 1- and 2-mm circumferential ferrule preparation, respectively. Endocrowns were milled using either lithium disilicate glass-ceramic (IPS emax ceramic) or monolithic zirconia. The internal and marginal adaptation of the endocrowns were evaluated using the replica technique. After cementation, the endocrowns of all test groups were dislodged axially at 0.5 mm/min using a universal testing machine. A 2-way ANOVA and the independent samples t-test (α = .05) were performed to statistically analyze the data. RESULTS The effect of changing the design of the tooth preparation (butt joint, ferrule) on the marginal and internal gap was shown to be statistically significant (p < .05); the lower gap values were recorded at the axial followed by cervical, marginal, and pulpal floor walls in both ceramic groups regardless of the teeth preparation design. The ANOVA test revealed similar average removal forces and stresses for the two types of tested ceramic materials. CONCLUSION IPS emax ceramic adapted better than monolithic zirconia ceramic, regardless of the preparation design. Ferrule preparation design is more retentive than butt joint preparation, regardless of the type of ceramic material used.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endocrowns (ECs) are alternatives for rebuilding severely damaged teeth and show superior efficacy in molars over premolars. OBJECTIVE The objective of this in vitro study is to evaluate the effects of different preparation designs with short pulp chambers on the mean color change (ΔE), fracture resistance, and failure types of mandibular molar ECs. METHOD A total of 40 extracted mandibular molars were treated endodontically and divided into four groups. Samples in groups 1, 2, 3, and 4 had occlusal preparation depths of 5 mm, 3 mm, 3 mm with ferrule, and 3 mm with boxes, respectively. The samples were immersed in coffee and their ΔE values were measured by using the Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage color system. They were also subjected to a fracture test. Next, all specimens were examined visually under a stereomicroscope to evaluate their failure modes and identify their fracture origins. Data were entered and analyzed by using Statistical Package for Social Sciences. RESULTS Among all groups, group 4 (3 mm + boxes) presented the highest ΔE (4.15) after immersion in coffee. Moreover, ANOVA revealed that the ΔE of group 4 (occlusal preparation depth of 3 mm with boxes) was significantly different (p< 0.05) from that of group 2 (3 mm + ferrule, 3.07). The EC with a 3 mm chamfer and ferrule showed the highest maximum load of 2847.68 ± 693.27 N, whereas that with a 5 mm chamfer finish line had a marginally reduced load at fracture of 2831.52 ± 881.83 N. The EC with a 3 mm chamber and boxes had a slightly increased maximum load of 2700.75 ± 436.40 N, whereas that with the 3 mm chamber had the lowest maximum load at fracture of 2385.97 ± 465.61 N. One-way ANOVA showed that different EC preparation designs had no effect on maximum fracture load (F [3,16] = 0.550, p= 0.6). CONCLUSION The recorded ΔE values of ECs in all groups were equal or marginally higher than the acceptable values. The EC with a 3 mm chamfer and ferrule displayed the highest mean maximum load. The EC with a 5 mm chamfer finish line had a marginally lower maximum load at fracture than other ECs. Failures, such as ceramic fracture, split fracture, and ceramic and tooth splitting above the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ) or vertically were predominant in samples with occlusal preparation depths of 3 mm with ferrule and 5 mm.

Abstract
Context Optimal restoration methods for endodontically treated teeth (ETTs) have always remained an ongoing discussion among physicians in this day and age. ETTs have a tendency to fracture when chewing, compared to initial teeth. From the perspective of biology, preserving and restoring tooth structure is critical to maintaining biomechanical, functional, and esthetic harmony. Dental bonding techniques have lessened the necessity for post-and-core restorations in ETTs with severe substance loss. A minimally invasive endodontic restoration technique called "endocrown" was initially introduced by Bindl and Mörmann in 1999. Aims The aim of the study was to clinically evaluate all-ceramic mandibular molar endocrowns made using computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) following 2 years of follow-up. Subjects and Methods This unblinded study contains 56 patients with 56 mandibular molars, which had severe substance loss. After teeth preparation, lithium disilicate ceramic endocrowns were manufactured with the CEREC CAD/CAM system, and cementation was performed using a composite luting agent. The endocrowns were assessed using the modified United States Public Health Service criteria at baseline, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years following placement. Patient satisfaction was evaluated using a questionnaire. Statistical Analysis Used This study used descriptive statistics, including mean, standard deviation, and 95% confidence intervals. Data were processed using STATA version 14.0 (StataCorp LLC, USA). Results Two endocrowns (3.6%) failed throughout the period of observation. The high clinical rating criteria (96.4%, count of 54) and the increased satisfaction percentage (94.6%, count of 53) remained practically stable during the follow-up assessments at 6 months and after 1-2 years. Conclusions Endocrown offers a less invasive treatment option that may be a better method for endodontically treated mandibular molars. With contemporary CAD/CAM technology and new materials, time in the chair and esthetics optimally improved, bringing satisfaction to the patient.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess and compare the impact of various computers aided design/manufacturing (CAD/CAM) materials on internal and marginal discrepancies, fracture resistance and failure probability of Endocrown restorations with 3D Finite Element analysis. MATERIAL AND METHODS Forty devitalized human maxillary first molars were collected. After endodontic treatment, they classified into 4 groups (n = 10) based on the materials used for endocrown fabrication. Group V (Vita-Enamic), Group N (Nacera Hybrid), Group T (Translucent Prettau Zirconia) and Group P (Pekkton ivory). All samples were exposed to artificial aging method simulating one year of clinical service. Silicone replica technique and stereomicroscope (25X) utilized to evaluate the marginal and internal gaps of endocrowns at different areas. Fracture resistance test used for cemented specimens followed by qualitative investigation utilizing Stereomicroscopy. Four models representing four endocrown systems used for restoration of severely-damaged endodontically treated upper first molar were generated for finite element analysis (FEA). Axially and centrally static occlusal compressive load was applied. Modified Von Mises and maximum principal stress values on the remaining tooth structure, cement lines and restorative materials were assessed independently. Resulted data were statistically analyzed at P-value ≤ 0.05. RESULTS In the current study, the highest mean values of internal and marginal discrepancies (μm) among studied groups were reported for Zirconia group (100.300 and 102.650) respectively, while the lowest mean value of internal discrepancy (μm) was observed for Nacera group (69.275) and the lowest mean value of marginal discrepancy (μm) was observed for PEKK group (78.4750). Regarding internal discrepancy, Vita-Enamic and PEKK groups did not exhibit any statistically significant differences (P = 0.293), however zirconia and the other tested groups exhibited statistically significant differences in the mean values of the marginal gap region (p 0.05).On the other hand, PEKK group showed the highest mean value of fracture resistance (1845.20 N) and the lowest value was observed for Vita-Enamic group (946.50 N). Regarding to stress distributions through 3D FEA, and according to modified von Mises (mvM) analysis, the greatest possible stress values were noticed in PEKK model in relation to tooth structure, cement line, and flowable composite as the following: (93.1, 64.5, 58.4 MPa) respectively, while Zirconia revealed lower maximum stress values (11.4, 13.6, 11.6 MPa) respectively. CONCLUSIONS Statistically excellent marginal and internal fit was observed for PEKK in relation to other used endocrown materials. Also, PEKK material explained fracture resistance comparable to zirconia value while the lowest value was detected for Vita Enamic material.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The dentistry industry has seen a number of exciting new advancements in recent years, many of which have been made possible by the introduction of automated technologies such as computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM). Despite the fact that these new approaches simplify the fabrication process in favor of decreased material consumption and improved time efficiency, it is possible that they may have an effect on the prosthesis's fitness, which in turn may affect how long they will last. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the trueness and fitness of cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr) crown copings fabricated by selective laser melting (SLM), milling, and conventional casting methods. MATERIALS AND METHODS A zirconium die was fabricated and scanned with a laboratory scanner to manufacture the Co-Cr metal copings for three groups (n = 12). In group A, the copings were fabricated by a 3D printing technique called SLM; in group B, the copings were fabricated by the milling technique; and in group C, the copings were fabricated by the conventional lost-wax method. After fabrication, the trueness and the internal fitness of the copings were evaluated using a metrology software program (Geomagic Control X, 3D Systems Inc., Rock Hill, SC). The one-way ANOVA and Tukey's honestly significant difference test were used to statistically analyze the data. RESULTS The highest root mean square (RMS) value of trueness was for CAD/CAM milling, and the highest mean of horizontal gaps was for the casted (lost-wax technique) group. There were highly significant differences in the mean RMS value of trueness and the mean horizontal gaps between the three groups. CONCLUSION The fabrication method of Co-Cr crown copings has an effect on the trueness and fitness of the copings.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The marginal seal and adaptation are important factors for successful restoration. An inadequate marginal seal can lead to bacterial microleakage, plaque accumulation, and eventually treatment failure This in vitro study aimed to compare the marginal gap of endocrowns fabricated from three different computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) ceramic materials. METHODS Thirty extracted mandibular molars were selected for the study. Endocrown preparations were completed after root canal treatment. Teeth were divided into three groups to receive endocrowns fabricated of lithium disilicate ceramic (IPS-e.max CAD, Ivoclar Vivadent AG, Schaan, Liechtenstein), zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate ceramic (VITA Suprinity®, VITA Zahnfabrik, Bad Säckingen, Germany), and polymer-infiltrated ceramic (VITA Enamic®, VITA Zahnfabrik). The digital impressions were transferred to the design software to construct the endocrowns. The endocrowns were milled and cemented. The marginal fit was examined using a digital camera stereomicroscope at a magnification of 80X. Images were transferred to Image-J software (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland, United States) to measure the marginal gap. RESULTS One-way ANOVA showed a significant difference in the marginal gap between the different ceramic groups (P=0.006). Tukey's Honest Significant Difference (HSD) post-hoc test showed that VITA Suprinity had significantly higher gap width values than VITA Enamic (P=0.005). No significant differences in gap width values were found between VITA Enamic and IPS e.max CAD or between VITA Suprinity and IPS e.max CAD (P>0.05). CONCLUSION The marginal gap of endocrown restorations varies with different CAD/CAM materials (zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate glass-ceramic, polymer-infiltrated hybrid ceramic, and lithium disilicate glass-ceramic), but are all within clinically acceptable marginal gap width.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the marginal and internal misfit of endocrowns fabricated from a resin matrix ceramic (CS), a partially crystallized (EMC), and a fully crystallized (ILS) lithium disilicate glass-ceramic. METHODS AND MATERIALS Thirty human premolar teeth restored with endocrowns were investigated. Three CAD/CAM materials were used (n=10 per group): CS, EMC, and ILS. Two-dimensional (2D) analysis of marginal and internal misfit was performed on micro-computed tomography scans before and after adhesive bonding. Further, three-dimensional (3D) analysis was performed to determine the total internal volume discrepancy. Surface roughness of the fitting surfaces of endocrowns was characterized using optical profilometry and scanning electron microscopy. RESULTS Adhesive bonding did not significantly affect marginal or internal misfit (p≥0.093). Differences in marginal misfit among the experimental groups were not statistically significant (p≥0.221). However, differences in 2D internal misfit were statistically significant; the CS group exhibited the largest internal misfit (p=0.001), while no significant difference was found between other groups (p=0.123). The largest discrepancies were observed at the pulpal floor and cervical region of all investigated specimens. No statistically significant difference was found in 3D misfit between ILS and EMC groups (p=0.711); however both exhibited statistically lower 3D misfit values compared to the CS group (p≤0.037). ILS endocrowns exhibited the smoothest and most homogenous fitting surface profile (p<0.001). However, there was no significant correlation between 2D internal misfit and the surface roughness (p≥0.082). CONCLUSIONS The choice of CAD/CAM material may influence the fitting accuracy of endocrowns. The investigated lithium disilicate glass-ceramics conferred superior internal fit for endocrowns compared to resin matrix ceramic.

MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 15:5592. [PMID: 36013732 PMCID: PMC9414256 DOI: 10.3390/ma15165592] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2022] [Revised: 07/26/2022] [Accepted: 08/08/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Background: The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of ceramic material and preparation design on the marginal fit of endocrown restorations. Methods: Forty endocrown restorations were CAD/CAM-fabricated for forty extracted maxillary first premolar teeth. Samples were divided into two groups (n = 20) according to the ceramic materials used: Celtra Duo and Vita Enamic. Each group was divided into two subgroups (n = 10) according to the preparation design: with no intraradicular extension and with 3 mm intraradicular extension. The marginal gap was examined using a digital microscope. Results: Celtra Duo without intraradicular extension recorded the least mean marginal gap (7.74 ± 1.55 µm), while Group Celtra Duo with 3 mm intraradicular extension recorded the highest mean marginal gap (29.54 ± 6.32 µm). Group Vita Enamic recorded a lesser marginal gap (18.03 ± 12.11 µm) than group CD (Celtra Duo) (18.64 ± 12.05 µm). There is a statistically non-significant difference between the two groups of materials (p = 0.873). There is a statistically significant difference between the two tested preparation designs (p < 0.001). Conclusion: All groups recorded a marginal gap within clinically accepted values. Material selection may influence the fitting of restorations. Intraradicular extension for endocrown restorations adversely affects the marginal fit, however, the marginal gap is still within the clinically accepted range.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the marginal gap and fracture resistance of implant-supported 3-dimensional (3D) printed definitive composite crowns with those fabricated by using 3 different millable materials. MATERIAL AND METHODS A prefabricated abutment was digitized by using a laboratory scanner (E4 Lab Scanner) and a complete-coverage maxillary first premolar crown was designed (Dental Designer). Forty crowns were fabricated either by 3D printing (Saremco Print Crowntec, SP) or milling (Brilliant Crios, BC; Vita Enamic, VE; Cerasmart 270, CS) (n = 10). Baseline marginal gap values were evaluated by measuring 60 predetermined points on an abutment (15 points for each side) with a stereomicroscope at ×40 magnification. Marginal gap values were reevaluated after adhesive cementation. Load-to-fracture test was performed by using a universal testing machine. Two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to evaluate the effect of material type and cementation on marginal gap values. While Tukey HSD tests were used to compare the materials' marginal gap values before and after cementation, the effect of cementation on marginal gap values within each material was analyzed by using paired samples t-tests. Fracture resistance data were analyzed by using 1-way ANOVA (α=0.05). RESULTS Material type and cementation significantly affected marginal gap values (P < .001). Regardless of cementation, SP had the lowest marginal gap values (P < .001), while the differences among milled crowns were nonsignificant (P ≥ .14). Cementation significantly increased the marginal gap values (P < .001). Material type did not affect fracture resistance values (F = 1.589, P = .209). CONCLUSION Implant-supported 3D-printed composite crowns showed higher marginal adaptation compared with the milled crowns before and after cementation. In addition, all crowns endured similar forces before fracture.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of butt margin, occlusal thickness and pulp chamber extension depth on stress distributions on mandibular molar endodontically treated teeth (ETT) with EMAX endocrown restoration using 3-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA). The FEA models of endocrown with flat surface or curve surface of butt margin were firstly evaluated stress distributions, and then 9 FEA models of endocrown with 1-, 2- or 3-mm pulp chamber extension depth and 1-, 2- or 3-mm occlusal thickness were generated using curve surface of butt margin. In all of FEA models, a 200 N of vertical load or horizontal load was applied, and the von Mises stress (VMS) were evaluated. The results showed that curve surface of butt margin offered more adhesive area of enamel, though VMS on the prepared teeth was similar in flat surface and curve surface models. In 9 endocrown models, 2-mm occlusal thickness showed the lowest VMS on restorations, teeth tissue and root furcations, and 2-mm extension depth displayed the lowest VMS on root furcations under vertical load. Also, 2-mm extension depth exhibited the lowest VMS on restorations and teeth tissue under horizontal load. Within the limitations of this FEA study, the results of this study could be used as an aid for dentists to better devise endocrown restorations. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the effects of resin base and different retention depth on the fracture resistance of mandibular molars restored with nano-ceramic endocrowns. METHODS Forty mandibular molars selected and randomly divided into 5 groups: ① The control group which was consisted of intact teeth, ② the non-resin base group, ③ the 2 mm retention depth group, ④ the 3 mm retention depth group, ⑤ the 4 mm retention depth group, respectively. After tooth preparation, in vitro root canal therapy was conducted, which was followed by endocrown design, production and adhesive of groups ②-⑤. All the samples were under load (N) of the universal mechanical testing machine after embedding. The fracture pattern of each sample was observed under stereomicroscope. Then the microstructure of the fracture surface was observed by scanning electron microscopy. RESULTS The fracture loads of each group were respectively: the control group fracture load was (3 069.34±939.50) N; experimental groups: fracture load of (2 438.04±774.40) N for the group without resin base; fracture load of (3 537.18±763.65) N for the group with 2 mm retention depth. The fracture load of the retention depth 3 mm group was (2 331.55±766.39) N; the fracture load of the retention depth 4 mm group was (2 786.98±709.24) N. There was statistical significance in the effect of resin base and different retention depth on the fracture loads of molars restored with nano-ceramic endocrown (P < 0.05). Repairable fractures in each group were as follows: control group 2/8, non-resin base group 1/8, retention depth of 2 mm group 1/8, retention depth of 3 mm group 2/8, and retention depth of 4 mm group 0/8. The effects of the retention depth and the presence of resin base on the fracture resistance of the resin nano-ceramic endocrowns were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Scanning electron microscopy showed more arrest lines and small twist hackles on the fracture surface of the restorations with resin base (retention depths of 2 mm, 3 mm, and 4 mm), with cracks extending towards the root. In addition to the characteristics above, more transverse cracks parallel to the occlusal surface, pointing outwards from the center of the pulp cavity retention, were also observed on the fracture surface of the non-resin base restorations. CONCLUSION When molar teeth with nano-ceramic endocrowns are restored, resin base and the retention depth of 2 mm help the teeth to obtain optimal fracture strength.

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

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate the success of computer-aided design-computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) endocrown restorations of endodontically treated teeth (ETT) performed by supervised undergraduate students. The study also intended to identify possible factors that may lead to failures. METHODS AND MATERIALS This observational open cohort study was based on clinical data from endocrown restorations performed by residents and undergraduate students in their 4th, 5th, and 6th year from July 2011 to May 2018. The presence of a tooth with an endocrown on the arch was the main criteria used to calculate the survival rate of restored teeth. The quality of the remaining endocrowns was evaluated referring to the FDI criteria. The cases of failure were categorized into either favorable or unfavorable. RESULTS A total of 343 ETT were restored with endocrowns in 315 patients. Among them, 199 patients encompassing 225 endocrowns were followed during a 56 ± 26 month period. The survival rate of restored teeth was found to be 81.8%, the estimated Kaplan-Meier survival rate being 71.8% at 9 years. Among the 41 failed cases, 32 were favorable (debonding and/or ceramic fractures) and 9 were unfavorable. CONCLUSION Endocrown restorations of posterior ETT using CAD-CAM technologies could be carried out by undergraduates with a low risk of failure. Teacher supervision could be reinforced, covering all steps of each endocrown procedure in order to avoid failures due to insufficient thickness or loss of retention.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The preparation design and fabrication materials directly affect the clinical success of endocrown restorations, and yet, knowledge is lacking about the biomechanical impact of specific designs or materials on endocrown restorations. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro and finite element analysis study was to evaluate the biomechanical behavior of endocrown restorations. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 36 freshly extracted mandibular first molars were collected. The teeth were prepared as per 2 different preparation geometries: with the buccal wall intact (Class 2) and without the buccal wall (Class 3). Teeth were restored with endocrowns made from 3 different fabricating materials, Vita Enamic, GC Cerasmart, and Lava Ultimate. To analyze the in vitro fracture strength, cemented endocrowns were loaded in a universal test machine with a 200-N oblique force until the restoration fractured. Finite element analysis was used to evaluate the stress distribution on both the dentin tissue and the restorative materials. The data were analyzed with a 2-way ANOVA test and the Tukey post hoc test (α=.05). RESULTS No significant differences were found between the different preparation designs (Class 2 and Class 3) on fracture strength (P>.05). The highest mean ±standard deviation fracture strength values were found in the Lava Ultimate material (Class 2, 606.20 ±293; Class 3, 659.40 ±226 N) (P>.05), but the lowest fracture strength test values were obtained in the Vita Enamic material (Class 2, 439.60 ±136; Class 3, 340 ±98 N) (P>.05) for both preparation design test groups. CONCLUSIONS A statistically significant difference was not found between the 2 tooth preparation classifications. However, significant differences were observed among the test groups in the Class 2 preparation specimens. The Class 2 preparation design exhibited a higher number of irreparable failures.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of three different designs and two monolithic ceramic materials on the durability and fracture resistance of endocrowns on maxillary first premolars, in comparison to post-and-core crowns. METHODS Fifty-six maxillary premolars were endodontically treated and shortened to a level of 2 mm from the cervical line, and randomly categorized into six endocrown groups and post-and-core crown control group (n=8); E1; endocrowns with flat occlusal table (without ferrule), E2; endocrowns with 1.5 mm circumferential ferrule, E3; endocrowns with 1.5 mm buccal ferrule preparation. Two materials were used for endocrowns: zirconia (4YSZ; Z), and lithium disilicate (L). The control group was restored with zirconia posts, and lithium disilicate crowns. All restorations were bonded using Panavia V5 and its respective primers and underwent thermo-mechanical fatigue with a 10 kg dynamic load for 1,200,000 cycles and thermocycling between 5 and 55 °C. Thereafter all survived specimens were loaded to fracture. The results were statistically analyzed using ANOVA and T-Test. RESULTS None of the specimens showed any signs of debonding or fracture caused by the fatigue test. The PC control group showed no statistically significant difference in comparison to groups ZE1, ZE2 and LE2 ( p > 0.05 ). However, it was significantly different from groups LE1, LE3, and ZE3 ( p ≤ 0.05 ). CONCLUSIONS Preparation designs and materials affected the fracture resistance of endocrowns. The results showed a superiority of the post-and-core crowns,zirconia/lithium disilicate endocrowns with 1.5 mm circumferential ferrule, and zirconia endocrowns with the flat occlusal table.

Topkara C, Keleş A. Examining the adaptation of modified endocrowns prepared with CAD-CAM in maxillary and mandibular molars: A microcomputed tomography study. J Prosthet Dent 2021; 127:744-749. [PMID: 33454117 DOI: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2020.12.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2020] [Revised: 11/27/2020] [Accepted: 12/01/2020] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Endocrowns have been reported to be successful restorations for endodontically treated molars. However, comparisons between maxillary and mandibular molars, with different pulp chamber configurations are lacking. Information on the influence of venting on the adaptation of endocrowns is also lacking. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the adaptation of endocrowns in maxillary and mandibular molars by means of microcomputed tomography (μCT). MATERIAL AND METHODS Mandibular and maxillary first molars were divided into 4 groups (n=10): ManE: mandibular endocrown; ModManE: modified mandibular endocrown; MaxE: maxillary endocrown; and ModMaxE: modified maxillary endocrown. Endocrowns were produced by using computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacture (CAD-CAM). Modification was carried out on the part of the endocrown that extended into the pulp chamber by preparing vents. The specimens were cemented and scanned by using μCT, the images reconstructed, and the internal and marginal adaptation examined. Statistical analyses were performed by using a 3-way ANOVA, 2-way ANOVA, and the independent samples t test (α=.05). RESULTS ManE displayed better mean ±standard deviation internal adaptation (182 ±59 μm) than MaxE (215 ±55 μm) (P<.01). Regardless of the groups, the pulpal floor was the area with the poorest fit (P<.001). The marginal gap of mandibular molars (91 ±20 μm) was lower than that of maxillary molars (110 ±26 μm) (P<.05). The effect of modifying endocrowns on the marginal gap was not found to be statistically significant (P>.05). CONCLUSIONS Internal and marginal adaptation of endocrowns differ between maxillary and mandibular molars.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The accuracy of intraoral scanners (IOSs) has been evaluated. However, testing their performance when scanning deep endocrown preparations is lacking. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to assess the effect of pulpal chamber extension depth (PCED) on scanning accuracy and to compare the accuracy of different IOSs on scanning different PCEDs. MATERIAL AND METHODS Six different IOSs were compared: TRIOS 3, CEREC Omnicam, CEREC Primescan, Planmeca Emerald, iTero Element2, and Virtuo Vivo. Endocrown preparations were digitally designed with a computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) software program (Rhicoceros), and the PCEDs of preparations were 2, 3.5, and 5 mm. Designed preparations were milled from a polymethylmethacrylate block (Telio CAD) with a milling unit. Reference scans were obtained from an industrial scanner (ATOS), and 5 test scans of each cavity were made with 6 IOSs. All scans were converted into standard tessellation language (STL) files. The data sets obtained from the IOSs were superimposed on the reference scan to evaluate trueness and on each other within groups to determine precision by using a 3D analysis software program (Geomagic Control X). Obtained data were analyzed with 1-way ANOVA and Tukey HSD tests (α=.05). RESULTS CEREC Primescan was found to have the best trueness and precision among the evaluated IOSs (P<.05), while Planmeca Emerald was found to have the lowest trueness (P<.05). For all tested PCEDs, statistically significant differences were found among IOSs. A PCED with a 2-mm depth (18.57 ±4.80 μm) showed significantly better scanning trueness than that with a 5-mm depth (23.81 ±6.53), while no significant differences were found between 2 and 3.5 mm (P>.05). CONCLUSIONS Deep pulpal chamber extensions of endocrown restorations could negatively affect scanning accuracy, and scanning accuracy varies depending on the selected IOS. CEREC Primescan appears to be the best IOS choice for scanning endocrowns with deep pulpal chamber extensions.

BMC Oral Health 2020; 20:226. [PMID: 32811484 PMCID: PMC7437004 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-020-01214-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2020] [Accepted: 08/10/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The purposes of this simulation study were to evaluate the stresses in the roots of endodontically treated molars with extensive coronal tissue loss which were restored by endocrowns (all-in-one core and crown) and traditional crowns with post-cores, during masticatory simulation using finite element analysis. Methods A mesio-distal cross-section of a lower right first molar was digitized and used to create 2-dimensional models of the teeth and supporting tissue; different crown designs, viz., endocrown with 2 mm occlusal clearance, endocrown with 4 mm occlusal clearance and post-core crown; different crown materials, viz., zirconia (Zr) and lithia-disilicate reinforced glass ceramic (LDRGC), and different post and core materials, viz., glass fiber (GF), stainless steel (SS) and metal cast (MC). An axial load of 600 N was applied to the central fossa of occlusal surface. Results The stress distributions were similar between Zr and LDRGC for periodontal ligament and alveolar bone. The root canal inner wall maximum principal stresses of SS post (70.8 MPa) and MC post (71.4 MPa) were higher than that of GF post (36.0 MPa) and endocrown (2.4 MPa). Conclusion The endocrowns reduced stress concentration for the root canal inner wall in comparison with the conventional post-core crown. Molars restored with endocrowns are less prone to root fracture than those with posts.

[PMID: 32631333 PMCID: PMC7339429 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-020-01181-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2020] [Accepted: 06/29/2020] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Chairside systems are becoming more popular for fabricating full-ceramic single restorations, but there is very little knowledge about the effect of the entire workflow process on restoration fit. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the absolute marginal discrepancy (AMD) and the full internal fit (FULL) of all-ceramic crowns made by two chairside systems, Planmeca FIT and CEREC, with detailed and standard mill settings. Methods One upper molar was prepared for an all-ceramic crown in human cadaver maxilla. Full-arch scans were made by Emerald or Omnicam four times each. Twenty-four e.max crowns were designed and milled by the Planmill 30s or 40s or CEREC MCXL mills with either detailed or standard settings. The cadaver tooth was extracted, and each crown was fixed on it and scanned by a high-resolution microCT scanner. The AMD and FULL were measured digitally in mesio-distal and bucco-lingual 2D slices. The actual and predicted times of the milling were also registered. Results No differences were observed between detailed or standard settings in either system. The AMD was significantly higher with CEREC (132 ± 12 μm) than with either Planmill 30s (71 ± 6.9 μm) or 40s (78 ± 7.7 μm). In standard mode, the FULL was significantly higher with CEREC (224 ± 9.6 μm) than with either Planmill 30s (169 ± 8.1 μm) or 40s (178 ± 8.5 μm). There was no difference between actual and predicted time with the two Planmeca models, but with CEREC, the actual time was significantly higher than the predicted time. The 30s had significantly higher actual and predicted times compared to all other models. Across all models, the average milling time was 7.2 min less in standard mode than in detailed mode. Conclusions All fit parameters were in an acceptable range. No differences in fit between Planmeca models suggest no effect of spindle number on accuracy. The detailed setting has no improvement in the marginal or internal fit of the restoration, yet it increases milling time.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of restoration design on the fracture resistance of different computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) ceramics and investigate the marginal leakage of endocrowns according to different types of cement. In total, 96 extracted mandibular first premolars were used for fabrication of endocrowns; 48 of the endocrowns were divided into 6 groups (n = 8) according to intracoronal cavity depth (2 and 3 mm) and CAD/CAM ceramics (lithium disilicate IPS e.max-CAD, zirconia-reinforced glass-ceramic Vita Suprinity, and poly-ether-ether-ketone (PEEK)). Teeth were subjected to a fracture resistance test with a universal test machine following thermo-cycling. Failure modes were determined by stereomicroscope after the load test. The rest of the endocrowns (n = 48) were produced by Vita Suprinity ceramic and divided into 6 groups (n = 8) according to the cement used (Panavia V5, Relyx Ultimate, and GC cement) with intracoronal cavity depths of 2 and 3 mm. Microleakage tests were performed using methylene blue with stereomicroscope after thermo-cycling. Numerical data for both fracture resistance and microleakage tests were obtained and evaluated by three-way ANOVA. PEEK endocrowns had higher fracture resistance compared to lithium disilicate and Vita Suprinity. Panavia V5 cement had the lowest degree of microleakage, while GC cement had the highest. Different intracoronal cavity depths had no correlation with fracture resistance and microleakage.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Recent resin-based and ceramic-based computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) materials have been used to restore endodontically treated teeth. Adaptation of the restoration is important for clinical success, but studies evaluating the effect of these materials on the adaptation of endocrowns are lacking. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of resin-based and ceramic-based materials on the marginal and internal adaptation of endocrowns. MATERIAL AND METHODS Forty mandibular molars were divided into 4 groups (n=10); each group was restored with a different CAD-CAM material: group C: hybrid nanoceramic (Cerasmart; GC Corp), group T: fiber-composite material (Trilor; Bioloren Srl), group E: lithium disilicate glass-ceramic (IPS e.max CAD; Ivoclar Vivadent AG), and group V: zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate glass-ceramic (Vita Suprinity; VITA Zahnfabrik GmbH). A digital scan was made with an intraoral digital scanner (TRIOS 3; 3Shape A/S), and endocrowns were milled with a 5-axis milling machine (Coritec 250i; imes-icore GmbH). The replica technique and a stereomicroscope (×70) were used to measure the marginal and internal adaptation of the endocrowns at 32 points. All data were statistically analyzed using 1-way ANOVA and the Tukey honestly significant difference test (α=.05). RESULTS Statistical tests showed significant differences among the tested groups (P<.001). The resin-based groups displayed larger discrepancies than the ceramic-based groups. The resin-based groups showed a mean marginal gap larger than the mean internal gap C (P=.009), T (P<.001), whereas the ceramic-based groups showed similar gaps, V (P=.396), E (P=.936). The largest gap was observed at the pulpal floor (P<.001). CONCLUSIONS All materials had clinically acceptable internal and marginal gaps (≤150 μm), except for the marginal gap of the Trilor group.

Abstract
The restoration of endodontically treated teeth (ETT) with more than one cusp missing and thin remaining walls is challenging for the general practitioner. The use of posts combined with full coverage restorations is a well-established approach, yet not following the minimal invasive principles of adhesive dentistry. Endocrowns are indirect monoblock restorations that use the pulp chamber of the ETT for retention. In this study the fabrication of 4 endocrowns and their clinical performance will be discussed. Two clinical cases include computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing manufactured molar endocrowns (one feldspathic ceramic and one hybrid composite-ceramic restoration) and the other two are dental laboratory manufactured resin composite premolar endocrown restorations. The modified United States Public Health Service criteria were used to assess the clinical behavior of the restorations at different follow up periods. Endocrown restorations present a satisfactory clinical alternative, either by the use of resin composite or glass ceramic and hybrid materials. Specific guidelines with minimal alterations should be followed for an endocrown restoration to be successful. Due to limited evidence regarding the long term evaluation of this restorative technique, a careful selection of cases should be applied.

Abstract
Purpose The aim of the study was to measure the marginal and internal adaptation (MIA) of zirconia copings, made of 4 ceramic systems for CAD/CAM, using microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) technology. Material and Methods Two identical stainless steel models were used, representing a preparation for full ceramic crown on a lower molar. The master models were then scanned for the production of copings from specific yttrium oxide partially stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal ceramic blocks of each system (n=10): Cerec/inCoris Zi, Sirona; Cercon/Cercon base, Dentsply; Ceramill/Ceramill Zi, Amann Girrbach; and Lava/Lava Frame Zirconia, 3M ESPE. MIA was evaluated measuring 4 points as follows: marginal gap (MG), axial wall gap (AW), axio-occlusal angle gap (AO), and central occlusal area gap (CO). The data were statistically analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey's test (α = 0.05). Results The ceramic system Lava showed greater internal desadaptation (80.75 ± 22.69 µm) while CEREC presented the lowest values (49.92 ± 11.77 µm). There were significant differences between the measurement points evaluated. CO demonstrated the greater values (77.03 ± 22.61 µm). All marginal and internal adaptation values were considered clinically acceptable. Conclusion It was concluded that there was an influence of the type of ceramic system in marginal and internal adaptation of copings in zirconia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate endodontically treated molar fracture resistance restored with CAD/CAM lithium disilicate (LDS) crowns with different amalgam core preparation design. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty-four recently extracted mandibular third molars were divided into seven groups (n = 12) and embedded in autopolymerizing resin. Coronal tooth structure was removed, pulp chamber exposed, and pulpal remnants removed. One group received LDS endocrowns, while three groups received amalgam cores with 2, 1, and 0 dentin axial wall heights (AWH). Three additional groups were likewise restored using an amalgam adhesive. Scanned preparations were restored with LDS crowns luted with a self-adhesive luting cement. After 24 hours, specimens were loaded to failure with results analyzed with Welch's Test/REGW Range Test at a 95% level of confidence (α = 0.05). RESULTS The 1 mm-AWH amalgam core group had the highest failure load and was similar to the 2 mm-AWH amalgam, 2 mm-AWH bonded amalgam, and the 1 mm-AWH bonded amalgam core groups. The endocrowns had lower failure load than the 1 mm and 2 mm AWH amalgam groups but was similar to other groups. CONCLUSIONS Adhesively luted LDS crowns with amalgam core preparations overall displayed similar failure load, as endocrown restorations. However, crowns based on amalgam cores demonstrated favorable failure modes. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The results of this in vitro test suggests that when suitable tooth structure and sufficient interact restorative space exists, endodontically treated molars restored with lithium disilicate complete crowns based on preparations with amalgam core foundations containing 1 mm and 2 mm of dentin axial wall height could serve as a suitable restorative option that may provide more recoverable failure modes than endocrown restorations.

Abstract
Objective This study aims to evaluate the influence of the light activation of simplified adhesives on the shear bond strength of resin cements to a glass-ceramic. Three factors were evaluated: (1) cement in two levels (light cured and dual cured); (2) adhesive in two levels (Single Bond 2 and Single Bond Universal), and (3) light activation in two levels (yes or no). Materials and Methods Thirty-two 1-mm thick slices of a leucite-reinforced glass-ceramic (IPS Empress CAD) were divided into eight groups according to adhesive (Single Bond 2 or Single Bond Universal), cement (AllCem Veneer or AllCem), and light activation of the adhesive before application of the cement (yes or no). Ceramic surfaces were etched for 60 s with 5% hydrofluoric acid, and adhesives were applied. Four cement cylinders were made over each ceramic slice (n = 16) and then submitted to shear bond strength tests. Statistical Analysis Data were analyzed with three-way ANOVA and Tukey (α = 0.05). Results There were significant differences between adhesives (P < 0.0001) and no differences between cements (P = 0.0763) and light activation (P = 0.4385). No interaction effect occurred (P = 0.05). Single Bond 2 showed higher bond strength than Single Bond Universal. Conclusions The light activation of the adhesive before the application of the resin cement did not influence the bond strength.

The objectives of this study were to compare the fracture strength of endocrown restorations fabricated with different preparation depth and various CAD/CAM ceramics, and to assess the fracture types. Endodontically treated 100 extracted human permanent maxillary centrals were divided into two preparation depth groups as short (S: 3-mm-deep) and long (L: 6-mm-deep), then five ceramic subgroups, namely: feldspathic-ceramic (Vita Mark II-VM2), lithium-disilicate glass-ceramic (IPS e.max CAD-E.max), resin-ceramic (LAVA Ultimate-LU), polymer infiltrated ceramic (Vita Enamic-VE) and monoblock zirconia (inCoris TZI-TZI) (n=10/subgroup). The endocrowns were fabricated by CAD/CAM and were cemented with resin cement (RelyX U200). The teeth were thermally cycled (5,000cycles) and fracture tests were performed at 45º angle to the teeth. The data were statistically analyzed (Kruskal-Wallis, Mann Whitney U), failure modes were evaluated with stereomicroscopy. Zirconia group provided the statistically highest fracture strength, but also exhibited non-repairable failures. Preparation depth has an effect on the fracture strength only for feldspathic ceramic.

Effect of Endocrown Restorations with Different CAD/CAM Materials: 3D Finite Element and Weibull Analyses. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2017; 2017:5638683. [PMID: 29119108 PMCID: PMC5651139 DOI: 10.1155/2017/5638683] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2017] [Revised: 07/18/2017] [Accepted: 08/08/2017] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of two endocrown designs and computer aided design/manufacturing (CAD/CAM) materials on stress distribution and failure probability of restorations applied to severely damaged endodontically treated maxillary first premolar tooth (MFP). Two types of designs without and with 3 mm intraradicular extensions, endocrown (E) and modified endocrown (ME), were modeled on a 3D Finite element (FE) model of the MFP. Vitablocks Mark II (VMII), Vita Enamic (VE), and Lava Ultimate (LU) CAD/CAM materials were used for each type of design. von Mises and maximum principle values were evaluated and the Weibull function was incorporated with FE analysis to calculate the long term failure probability. Regarding the stresses that occurred in enamel, for each group of material, ME restoration design transmitted less stress than endocrown. During normal occlusal function, the overall failure probability was minimum for ME with VMII. ME restoration design with VE was the best restorative option for premolar teeth with extensive loss of coronal structure under high occlusal loads. Therefore, ME design could be a favorable treatment option for MFPs with missing palatal cusp. Among the CAD/CAM materials tested, VMII and VE were found to be more tooth-friendly than LU.
