Objective: The restoration of endodontically treated teeth has long been guided by empirical
rather than biomechanical concepts. Part I of this literature review presented up-to-date …

The specific biomechanical alterations related to vitality loss or endodontic procedures are
confusing issues for the practitioner and have been controversially approached from a …

Purpose: This study sought to aggregate literature data on in vitro failure loads and failure
modes of prefabricated fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) post systems and to compare them …

An ideal all-ceramic restoration that conforms well and demonstrates enhanced
biocompatibility, strength, fit, and esthetics has always been desirable in clinical dentistry …

The clinical success of fiber posts has been attributed to their lower elastic modulus. The
tested hypothesis was that fiber posts could lead to lower risk of post debonding and lower …

Cast metal post-core systems have a long history of successful use because of their superior
physical properties. However, their high elastic modulus can cause stress concentrations …

Aim To report the treatment and follow‐up of a maxillary central incisor with internal
resorption managed by root canal treatment, white mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) repair …

Several factors can contribute to the achievement of success with endodontic therapy. After
an effective microbial‐control phase, an adequate canal and coronal filling will guarantee a …

Aim To investigate ex vivo the fracture resistance and failure mode of direct resin composite
complete crowns with and without various root canal posts made on maxillary premolars …

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: The influence of different crown foundations on marginal seal
and fracture resistance of ceramic crowns placed on endodontically treated teeth has not …
