Different all-ceramic crown designs are available to perform indirect restoration; however, the mechanical response of each model should still be elucidated. The study aims to evaluate the stress distribution in three different zirconia crown designs using finite element analysis. Different three-dimensional molar crowns were simulated: conventional bilayer zirconia covered with porcelain, a monolithic full-contour zirconia crown, and the cutback modified zirconia crown with porcelain veneered buccal face. The models were imported to the computer-aided engineering (CAE) software. Tetrahedral elements were used to form the mesh and the mechanical properties were assumed as isotropic, linear and homogeneous materials. The contacts were considered ideal. For the static structural mechanical analysis, 100 N occlusal load was applied and the bone tissue was fixed. Maximum principal stress showed that the stress pattern was different for the three crown designs, and the traditional bilayer model showed higher stress magnitude comparing to the other models. However, grayscale stress maps showed homogeneous stress distribution for all models. The all-ceramic crown designs affect the stress distribution, and the cutback porcelain-veneered zirconia crown can be a viable alternative to adequate function and esthetic when the monolithic zirconia crown cannot be indicated.

The effect of a restored machined hybrid dental ceramic crown–tooth complex is not well understood. This study was conducted to determine the effect of the stress state of the machined hybrid dental ceramic crown using three-dimensional finite element analysis. Human premolars were prepared to receive full coverage crowns and restored with machined hybrid dental ceramic crowns using the resin cement. Then, the teeth were digitized using micro-computed tomography and the teeth were scanned with an optical intraoral scanner using an intraoral scanner. Three-dimensional digital models were generated using an interactive image processing software for the restored tooth complex. The generated models were imported into a finite element analysis software with all degrees of freedom concentrated on the outer surface of the root of the crown–tooth complex. To simulate average occlusal load subjected on a premolar a total load of 300 N was applied, 150 N at a buccal incline of the palatal cusp, and palatal incline of the buccal cusp. The von Mises stresses were calculated for the crown–tooth complex under simulated load application was determined. Three-dimensional finite element analysis showed that the stress distribution was more in the dentine and least in the cement. For the cement layer, the stresses were more concentrated on the buccal cusp tip. In dentine, stress was more on the cusp tips and coronal 1/3 of the root surface. The conventional crown preparation is a suitable option for machined polymer crowns with less stress distribution within the crown–tooth complex and can be a good aesthetic replacement in the posterior region. Enamic crowns are a good viable option in the posterior region.

This study was performed as an adjunct to an existing clinical study to validate the effect of veneer: framework thickness ratio on stress distribution in an implant-supported all-ceramic fixed partial denture. Two commercially available titanium dental implants with corresponding customized abutments and a patient-retrieved all-ceramic fixed partial denture were scanned using a high-resolution micro-CT scanner. Reconstructed 3D objects, along with a simulated bone surface, were incorporated into a non-manifold assembly and meshed simultaneously using Simpleware software (Synopsys Simpleware ScanIP Version P-2019.09; Mountain View, CA). Three such volume meshes (Model A, Model B, Model C) corresponding to veneer: framework thickness ratios of 3:1, 1:1, and 1:3 respectively were created, and exported to a finite element analysis software (ABAQUS). An axial load of 110 N was applied uniformly on the occlusal surfaces to calculate the static stresses and contour plots were generated in the post-processing module. From the data obtained, we observed optimum stress distribution in Model B. Also, the tensile stresses were concentrated in the posterior connector region of the prosthesis in all three models tested. Within the limitations of this study, we can conclude that equal thickness of veneer and framework layers would aid in better stress distribution.

This study evaluated the effect of the combination of three different onlay preparation designs and two restorative materials on the stress distribution, using 3D-finite element analysis. Six models of first lower molars were created according to three preparation designs: non-retentive (nRET), traditional with occlusal isthmus reduction (IST), and traditional without occlusal isthmus reduction (wIST); and according to two restorative materials: lithium-disilicate (LD) and nanoceramic resin (NR). A 600 N axial load was applied at the central fossa. All solids were considered isotropic, homogeneous, and linearly elastic. A static linear analysis was performed, and the Maximum Principal Stress (MPS) criteria were used to evaluate the results and compare the stress in MPa on the restoration, cement layer, and tooth structure (enamel and dentin). A novel statistical approach was used for quantitative analysis of the finite element analysis results. On restoration and cement layer, nRET showed a more homogeneous stress distribution, while the highest stress peaks were calculated for LD onlays (restoration: 69–110; cement layer: 10.2–13.3). On the tooth structure, the material had more influence, with better results for LD (27–38). It can be concluded that nRET design showed the best mechanical behavior compared to IST and wIST, with LD being more advantageous for tooth structure and NR for the restoration and cement layer.

Aim: To evaluate the stress distribution in the cortical bone under parafunctional forces with different occlusal thicknesses, monolithic zirconia with different implant diameters, and number variations in implant-supported fixed prosthetic restorations applied in patients with bruxism. Methodology: The tomographic sections of the previously registered mandible were used in order to model the mandible. Modeled bone height is 30 mm, cortical bone thickness is 1.5 mm, and trabecular bone thickness is modeled as 13 mm. By placing two implants in the created bone model, a three-member main model (Group 1), the number of implants was increased, three implants supported the Group 2 models, the diameter of the implants was increased, and the Group 3 models were created. The created Group 1, 2, 3 models, the occlusal thickness was divided into subgroups with 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 mm, respectively (Groups A, B, and C). The groups were applied in two directions: vertical and 30o oblique. Stress values under forces were analyzed by finite element stress analysis. Results: Under vertical loading, the maximum principal stress value in the cortical bone was found to be lowest in Group 2C, and the highest maximum principal stress value was found in Group 1A. The minimum principal stress value in the cortical bone was found to be the lowest in Group 3C, and the highest minimum principal stress value was found in Group 1A. Under oblique loading, the maximum principal stress value in the cortical bone was found to be the lowest in Group 3C and the highest maximum principal stress value was found in Group 1A. The minimum principal stress value in the cortical bone was found to be lowest in Group 3C, and the highest minimum principal stress value was found in Group1A. Conclusion: Stresses caused by oblique forces are more than vertical forces. Increasing the occlusal thickness of the implant fixed prosthesis material, implant diameter, and number reduce the minimum and maximum principal stress values in the cortical   How to cite this article: Kantaci Y, Ülkü SZ.

The Impact

The aim of this study was to investigate, through finite element analysis, the impact of different restorative techniques on stress distribution in endodontically-treated maxillary first premolars. A human maxillary first premolar was modeled following the real anatomical dimensions, through a periapical radiography, using the Rhinoceros software, version 4.0SR8. The model was then replicated to compose the groups according to the coronary restorative technique: C (coltosol), GI.C (glass ionomer + coltosol), GI (glass ionomer), CR.GI (conventional resin + glass ionomer), and BR.GI (Bulk Fill resin + glass ionomer). After the models were finished, they were imported as IGES files into ANSYS software, version 17.2. Fixation was defined at the base of the cortical bone and the load was applied with 300 N axially to the buccal and palatal cusps. The results generated were in maximum principal stress (MPS), with the CR.GI and BR.GI groups presenting the lowest values of tension concentration and more homogeneous stress distribution, followed by GI, GI.C and C. All restorative techniques affected the stress distribution in endodontically-treated maxillary first premolars, promoting greater tension in the occlusal third, at the interface with the buccal wall, and in the cervical third. Conventional or Bulk Fill resins associated with a glass ionomer base have a superior biomechanical behavior in relation to coltosol or glass ionomer.
