Effect of ferrule height and glass fibre post length on fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth / Shurooq Sh Abdulrazzak
Objectives: 1. To evaluate the effect of ferrule height (FH) and post length (PL) on fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth (ETT) restored with glass fibre post, composite resin core and crown. 2. To assess the effect of FH and PL on the failure mode of these teeth. Methods: Nine...

| description | Objectives: 1. To evaluate the effect of ferrule height (FH) and post length (PL) on
fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth (ETT) restored with glass fibre post,
composite resin core and crown. 2. To assess the effect of FH and PL on the failure
mode of these teeth.
Methods: Ninety endodontically treated maxillary central incisors were randomly
divided into three groups of 30 according to their FH: 4, 2 and 0 mm. Post space was
prepared according 2/3, 1/2 and 1/3 of the root length (N = 10 each). RelyX™ fibre
posts (3M/ESPE, USA) were then cemented with self adhesive resin cement (RelyX™
Unicem, 3M/ESPE, USA). Core build-ups were done using composite resin (Filtek™
Z350, 3M/ESPE, USA). Cast metal crowns were cemented on the prepared specimens
using RelyX Unicem. The specimens were thermocycled and compressive static load
was applied at an angle of 135 degrees to the crown. The load (N) at failure and mode
of failure were recorded. Statistical analysis was performed with Two-way ANOVA.
Results: No significant interaction between ferrule heights and post lengths was
observed (p = 0.801). Significant difference in the failure load was found in the ferrule
height groups (p < 0.001) but not in the post length groups (p = 0.102). 4 mm ferrule
group had significantly higher failure load (FL) (536.7 N ± 195.4) compared to 2 mm
(414.6 N ± 133) and 0 mm ferrule groups (319.8 N ± 54.7) (p = 0.018, p < 0.001). 2 mm
ferrule group had significantly higher FL than 0 mm ferrule group (p = 0.002). More
favourable failure modes were observed in almost all subgroups.
Conclusion: Increasing the FH significantly increased the fracture resistance of ETT
restored with glass fibre post, composite resin core and a crown. Post length had no
significant effect on the fracture resistance. Most groups had favourable failure mode. |
