Clinical Relevance According to FEA analysis, under a simulated occlusal load, the cervical area of endodontically treated and crowned maxillary central incisors was the most stress concentrated area. Zirconia ceramic posts create slightly less dentinal stress concentration than titanium and glass-fiber posts.

Objectives. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of ferule and the post type on the fracture strength and stress distribution in premolars. Materials and Methods. Forty human mandibular premolars were decoronated, allocated in four groups, and restored as follows: CPC-NF: cast post-and-core and absence of ferule; CPC-F: cast post-and-core and presence of ferule; FPC-NF: glass-fiber posts and absence of ferule; FPC-F: glass-fiber posts and presence of ferule. The fracture strength (FS) and failure patterns were evaluated. Finite element analysis (FEA) evaluated the stress distribution. Results. FS did not differ between CPCs and FPC either in presence or in absence of ferule. The presence of ferule increased FS with both post types. Mean values of FS for ferule groups were higher than functional or parafunctional loads reported in literature, which was not the case for FPC-NF when compared to parafunctional loads. FEA with a functional load showed slightly higher compressive stresses in dentin in the group CPC-NF, which was much lower than the compressive strength of dentin. Lower percentage of catastrophic failures was observed in nonferule groups irrespective of post type, which was explained by the stress concentration in the cervical root region when FEA with the FS load was simulated. Conclusion. Ferule effect was shown to be more important than post type in the analysis. Both posts showed potential to withstand functional loads irrespective of presence of ferule. However, the mean FS was lower than parafunctional loads for FPC in the absence of ferule.

Clinical Relevance When restoring teeth, a higher restoring success rate can be achieved by using posts with an elastic modulus similar to that of dentin and a core, with equal or higher strength, such as glass fiber posts. Moreover, the failure mode for these post systems will allow for further repair.

SUMMARY This study aimed to evaluate the cementation and mechanical behavior of flared root canals restored with CAD/CAM milled glass fiber post-and-core systems. Sixty-six endodontically treated human canines with a flared root canal were divided into three different groups according to the type of post: GPF received prefabricated posts; GREL received relined glass fiber posts, and GMILLED received CAD/CAM milled glass fiber posts. Cementation was performed with self-adhesive resin cement. The samples were submitted to x-ray microcomputed tomography analysis for the analysis of voids and gaps. The roots were sectioned and submitted to the push-out bond strength test. The load-to-fracture was evaluated in post-and-core systems. GMILLED presented lower void and lower gap volumes when compared to GPF and GREL. On the load-to-fracture test, GREL presented statistically significant higher values than GMILLED. GPF values had no statistically significant difference from the two other groups. On the push-out bond strength test, GPF presented statistically significant lower values when compared to GREL and GMILLED. The most common failure pattern was between dentin and cement in all groups. CAD/CAM milled glass fiber post-and-core systems presented an enhanced adaptation of glass fiber posts to flared root canal systems. Their results were comparable to relined posts in bond strength, while load-to-fracture-results for GMILLED were lower than those for GPF.

Endodontic posts are necessary to provide adequate retention and support when no sufficient remaining structure is available to retain the core. There are different materials and techniques to construct post-and-core, but there is no consensus about which one promotes better stress distribution on the remaining tooth structure. This study aimed to quantify and evaluate the distribution of stress in the root produced by customized glass fiber posts compared to different endodontic posts. Twenty-five simulated roots from photoelastic resin were made and divided into 5 groups: CPC, cast post-and-core; SP, screw post; CF, carbon fiber post; GF, glass fiber post; and CGF, customized glass fiber post. After cementing CPC and SP posts with zinc phosphate cement, and CF, GF and CGF posts with resin cement, resin cores were made for groups 2-5. Specimens were evaluated with vertical or 45° oblique loading. To analyze the fringes, the root was divided into 6 parts: palatal cervical, palatal middle, palatal apical, vestibular cervical, vestibular middle, and vestibular apical. The formed fringes were photographed and quantified. Data were recorded and subjected to two-way ANOVA and Tukey's test (5%). SP (1.95±0.60) showed higher stress (p<0.05) compared to the others (CPC-0.52±0.74; CF-0.50±0.75, GF-0.23±0.48 and CGF-0.45±0.83). All posts showed high stress in apical third (CPC-1.40±0.65; SP-2.30±0.44, CF-1.80±0.45, GF-1.20±0.45, CGF-1.70±1.03) Low stress was found in cervical third (CPC-0.20±0.45; CF-0.00±0.00, GF-0.00±0.00, CGF-0.00±0.00), except by SP (1.90±0.65), which showed statistical difference (p<0.05). Customized post showed high stress concentration at the root and conventional glass fiber posts showed more favorable biomechanical behavior.

ABSTRACTCustomized glass fiber posts that is well adjusted into the root canal and have mechanical properties similar to those of dentin may be a suitable treatment for severely compromised endodontically treated teeth. This article reports a 3-year follow up of severely damaged endodontically treated teeth restored with unidirectional fiber glass customized post and core system instead of a conventional fiber post. The fabrication of this glass fiber customized post is a simple technique, providing an increased volume of fibers into the root canal, and an adequate polymerization of the post-core system. Over a three-year period, the treatments demonstrated good clinical and radiographic characteristics, with no fracture or loss of the post and/or crown. This technique can be considered effective, less invasive, and suitable for restore endodontically treated teeth. (Eur J Dent 2011;5:107-112)

SUMMARY Purpose To evaluate the fracture load and survival rate of weakened and non-weakened roots restored with different intracanal posts. Methods Eighty teeth (16 mm) were prepared to a length of 10 mm with a custom drill. Fifty roots were weakened with a tapered diamond drill, and 30 roots were not. The specimens were embedded with acrylic resin up to 3 mm from the coronal aspect, and the periodontal ligament was simulated. The 50 weakened roots were restored with (n=10) CPC-gold (cast post and core made of gold alloy), CPC-Ni (cast post and core made of Ni-Cr alloy), FP (glass fiber posts), FP-W (glass fiber posts with a wider coronal diameter), and FP-CR (fiber posts relined with composite resin). The 30 nonweakened roots were restored with (n=10) CPC-gold, CPC-Ni, and FP. All of the posts were adhesively cemented. All of the specimens were mechanically cycled (37°C, 45°, 130 N, 2.2 Hz, and 1.5 million pulses) and evaluated after every 5 × 104 cycles to evaluate the presence of cracks as a primary outcome (event). The specimens that survived cycling were subjected to a fracture load test (load application on the palatal aspect at a 45° inclination). Failure mode was classified as favorable (above the simulated bone level) and catastrophic (below the simulated bone level). Survival rates were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Fracture load data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test (α=0.05) for weakened roots, one-way analysis of variance, and Tukey test (p&lt;0.05) for non-weakened roots, and Student t-test (p&lt;0.05) compared nonweakened vs weakened roots for the same post system. Results For the preliminary survival results, FP-W showed a higher survival rate when compared with CPC (gold/Ni). For the fracture load (N), the statistical analysis (p&lt;0.0001) presented differences among the weakened groups: CPC-gold (541.4) = CPC-Ni (642.6) &gt; FP (282.2) = FP-W (274.1) = FP-RC (216.6). No differences were observed for the groups that were nonweakened (majority of favorable failures): CPC-gold (459.3) = CPC-Ni (422.0) = FP (347.9). Weakened roots restored with CPC-gold promoted high values of load fracture and unfavorable failure rates. Conclusion Cast post and cores or fiber posts can be used for restoring nonweakened roots. However, for weakened roots, a fiber post with a wider cervical emerging diameter appears to be a better alternative when compared with cast post and cores.

Abstract Background To evaluate the effect of surface treatments on the push-out bond strength of Biodentine (BD) and white mineral trioxide aggregate (WMTA) to fiber posts. Methods Two brands of fiber posts were used: Reblida post; RP and RelyX post; RX. Each type of post (n = 80/group) was divided into four groups (n = 20/group) and exposed to surface treatment as follows: Control (no treatment), sandblasting (SB), hydrofluoric acid (HF), and TiF4 4 wt/v%. Each group was further subdivided into two subgroups (n = 10/subgroup) based on the type of CSCs used as follows: Subgroup A: BD and Subgroup B: WMTA. Push-out bond strength of BD and WMTA to glass fiber posts was assessed. Data were statistically analyzed using three-way ANOVA and Tukey’s test. A Weibull analysis was performed on the push-out bond strength data. Results BD showed higher bond strength than WMTA (P < 0.001). The push-out bond strength for posts treated with TiF4 4 wt/v% showed greater bond strength than the other surface treatments (P < 0.05). The BD/RP-TiF4 4 wt/v% showed the greater characteristic bond strength (σ0) (15.93) compared with the other groups. Surface treatments modified the surface topography of glass fiber posts. Conclusions The BD/RP-TiF4 4 wt/v% showed greater bond strength compared with the other groups. The TiF4 4 wt/v% surface treatment enhanced the bond strength of BD and WMTA to glass fiber posts than the other treatments. Surface treatment of fiber post with TiF4 4 wt/v% could be used to improve the bond strength with calcium silicate-based cements.

Clinical Relevance According to finite element analysis, the zirconia ceramic post created higher stress levels in the post and slightly less in dentin compared with glass fiber posts. Resin cement with a high elastic modulus created higher stress levels in the cement layer. The different film thicknesses of cement did not create significant changes in stress levels.
