RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of polyethylene fiber-reinforcement on the fracture resistance and fracture mode of extensive resin-based composite (RBC) restorations in structurally compromised maxillary premolars. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Maxillary premolars (54) with specific dimensions and extracted for orthodontic reasons were used. Following mesio-occluso-distal (MOD) cavity preparation and endodontic access, teeth were randomly assigned to one of three restorative protocols (n=18): RBC applied incrementally (I) or reinforced with woven polyethylene fibers (Ribbond) placed horizontally (H) or U-shaped (U). Restored teeth were stored for 45 days in distilled water at 37°C and then loaded monotonically until fracture. Half of the specimens in each group received axial loading (A) and the other half was loaded paraxially (PA). Fracture load data was assessed using two-way analysis of variance and Tukey's post hoc test for multiple comparisons (α=0.05). The fracture initiation and propagation path were analyzed using stereomicroscopy and scanning-electron microscopy. RESULTS: No significant differences were observed for the fracture strength among loading configurations, except for groups IA (825 N) and HA (553 N). Fracture initiated and propagated mainly at and through the RBC restoration in the I group, whereas a shift to the interface was observed in both polyethylene fiber-reinforced groups. Blocking and bridging of cracks were identified around the fibers, especially in specimens of group U. CONCLUSIONS: Incorporation of woven polyethylene fibers to reinforce extensive MOD resin-based composite restorations on endodontically treated premolars reduced the occurrence of cohesive fractures in the restorative material but was unable to increase the fracture resistance of the affected teeth.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Polyethylene fibers have been reported to improve the fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth, but their optimal orientation is unclear. PURPOSE: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effects of different fiber positions and orientations on the fracture resistance of endodontically treated premolar teeth. MATERIAL AND METHODS: One hundred endodontically treated maxillary premolars were divided into 2 groups according to the cavity design, mesio-occluso-distal and occluso-buccal, and each group was divided into 5 subgroups (n=10) according to the polyethylene fiber orientation on the pulpal floor: unidirectional horizontal (from mesial to distal), unidirectional vertical (from buccal to palatal), bidirectional (buccopalatal and mesiodistal), circular (around the walls), and without fibers (control group). The cavities were restored with fiber-reinforced composite resin and conventional composite resin. All the teeth were fractured with a universal testing machine and analyzed as catastrophic failure or reparable failure. A 1-way ANOVA was used to compare fracture strength values (α=.05). RESULTS: The tested groups with different fiber orientations showed significantly higher fracture load than the control group (P<.05). No statistically significant difference was observed among the fiber orientations (P>.05). Most of the favorable fractures were occlusal to the cemento-enamel junction, and adhesive failure were seen in the mesio-occluso-distal and occluso-buccal cavities. The highest percentage of unfavorable fractures and mixed failures was observed in the control group. CONCLUSIONS: The fiber orientation pattern in the mesio-occluso-distal and occluso-buccal cavities did not differ significantly in the fracture resistance of endodontically treated maxillary premolar teeth.

OBJETIVE: This study evaluated the influence of alveolar bone height and post type on compressive force resistance, fracture pattern, and stress distribution in endodontically treated teeth. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Bovine roots were endodontically treated and divided into eight groups (n = 10) according to alveolar bone height (normal alveolar bone and alveolar bone loss - 2 and 5 mm from the margin of the crown, respectively) and post type (prefabricated glass fiber post, anatomic glass fiber post, customized milled glass fiber post-and-core and customized milled polyetheretherketone (PEEK) post-and-core). Mechanical fatigue was simulated (300.000 cycles/50 N/1.2 Hz). Compression force resistance (N) was analyzed by two-way ANOVA and Tukey test (α = 0.05). Fracture patterns were described as percentages. Stress distribution was analyzed by finite element analysis. RESULTS: Significant diferences were found for alveolar bone height (P < 0.0001): normal alveolar bone groups showed higher mean values of compression force resistance compared to alveolar bone loss groups, while no significant differences were found for post type (P = 0.4551), and there was no double interaction between them (P = 0.5837). Reparable fractures were more predominant in normal alveolar bone groups, especially in the milled glass fiber and PEEK post-and-core groups. Stress distribution was similar in groups with prefabricated glass fiber posts and milled PEEK posts-and-cores, and the alveolar bone loss condition significantly increased stress concentration and strain values, mainly on apical dentin. CONCLUSIONS: Alveolar bone loss due to physiological aging and/or periodontal disease may lead to increased risk of restored tooth failure, although milled glass fiber and PEEK posts-and-cores provide more reparable fractures. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Custom-made glass fiber and PEEK post-and-cores are interesting options, since they enable clinicians to work with a single-body post-and-core system that avoid several materials interfaces and fits well in the root canal provided promising results to improve the failure behavior of restored roots, as they offer more reparable fractures even in situations of alveolar bone loss.

This systematic review aimed to assess if the use of fiber posts reinforces weakened immature teeth. A systematic review was conducted of laboratory studies that evaluated the fracture resistance of simulated immature teeth restored with fiber posts compared to teeth restored exclusively with resin. An electronic search was performed using the following databases: PubMed/MEDLINE, Web of Science, Scopus and LILACS, BBO, and grey literature. Two independent researchers screened the titles and abstracts of the retrieved studies for relevance to the research question. Subsequently, the full texts of potentially relevant studies were screened based on the exclusion criteria. Ten out of 1792 unique records were included in this systematic review. Risk of bias was assessed using an adapted tool based on the Cochrane risk of bias tool. The laboratory studies included in this systematic review were performed on both human and bovine teeth. Eight studies concluded that fiber posts reinforce the structure of weakened roots, and two studies reported that fiber posts did not strengthen the radicular structure compared to teeth exclusively restored with resin composite. The highly heterogeneous data made it challenging to synthesize the results into a summary estimate, and thus no meta-analysis was undertaken. A summary effect could not be estimated without a meta-analysis. Although the laboratory literature suggests that fiber posts reinforce the structure of immature teeth, the results should be interpreted with caution, as most of the studies had an unclear or high risk of bias.

OBJECTIVES: To make an in vitro assessment of fracture resistance of weakened and non-weakened teeth receiving intraradicular reinforcement using Rebilda bundled glass fiber-reinforced composite posts (GT), Rebilda conventional glass fiber posts (RP), or both systems combined (GT + RP). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Eighty sound bovine incisors were prepared and divided randomly into eight groups as follows: (a) nWnR: without simulating weakness, and without intraradicular reinforcement; (b) WnR: simulating weakness, but without intraradicular reinforcement; (c) nWGT: without simulating weakness, but with GT; (d) WGT: simulating weakness, and with GT; (e) nWRP: without simulating weakness, but with RP; (f) WRP: simulating weakness, and with RP; (g) nWGTRP: without simulating weakness, but with GT + RP; (h) WGTRP: simulating weakness, and with GT + RP. The specimens were subjected to the load-to-fracture test using the DL-2000MF universal testing machine. The finite element method assessed the mechanical behavior and stress distribution in endodontically treated teeth. RESULTS: The groups nWGTRP and WGTRP presented the best results in the load-to-fracture test, with the former being better than the latter, but with no statistically significant difference (P > 0.05). However, there was a significant difference between these and the other groups (P < 0.05), except for nWRP. Stress distribution inside the canal wall was different among the groups, with promising mechanical behavior for nWGTRP and nWRP. CONCLUSIONS: The Rebilda conventional fiber post (RP), combined with the Rebilda bundled glass fiber-reinforced composite post (GT) improves the resistance and stress distribution of immature teeth. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Longitudinal fracture is less frequent in teeth restored with GT and RP posts.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: A fiber post is indicated when there is a significant loss of tooth structure and additional support for the restoration is needed. However, whether the use of a glass fiber post affects the fracture susceptibility of the restored anterior teeth is unknown. PURPOSE: The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the fracture resistance of endodontically treated and restored anterior teeth and to answer the research question, "Does the use of a fiber post influence the fracture resistance of endodontically treated and restored anterior teeth compared with alternative restorative treatments?" MATERIAL AND METHODS: A search was performed in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, LILACS, BBO, Cochrane Library, and Embase databases without date and/or language restrictions (updated in July, 2020). In vitro studies comparing the fracture strength of endodontically treated and restored anterior teeth with and without fiber posts were included. The risk of bias was evaluated by using the previous meta-analyses of in vitro studies. The results were presented as standardized mean difference with a 95% confidence interval. Statistical heterogeneity of treatment effects between studies was assessed using the Cochran Q test and the I2 inconsistency test, and values greater than 50% were considered indicative of substantial heterogeneity. RESULTS: After the removal of duplicates and title and abstract screening, 31 studies remained. Seventeen were considered low risk of bias, 10 were medium risk of bias, and 4 were high risk of bias. Meta-analysis comparing control and experimental groups favored the use of a fiber post in endodontically treated teeth with some types of restoration to improve fracture resistance (standardized mean difference= 0.5 [0.08; 0.92]); a glass fiber post was also favored (standardized mean difference=0.92 [0.43; 1.42]); for veneer preparations and teeth with cervical cavities, a fiber post increases the fracture strength (standardized mean difference= 0.74 [0.01; 1.47]; 1.18 [0.35; 2.02], respectively). CONCLUSIONS: The use of glass fiber posts increases the fracture resistance of endodontically treated and restored teeth.

RESUMEN: El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar mediante la revisión de la literatura científica disponible cuál es el tipo de cemento sellador que proporciona mayor resistencia a la fractura en dientes tratados endodónticamente, los cementos a base de biocerámicos o los en base a resina epóxica. Se realizó una revisión sistemática de acuerdo a las bases de los estamentos de PRISMA, en las bases de datos Medline, SciELO, Trip Database, LILACS, Web of Science, Cochrane. Se realizó la búsqueda a 10 años y se incluyeron sólo estudios in vitro. Se encontraron 202 artículos, luego se eliminaron los artículos duplicados y se excluyeron los estudios no atingentes por título y resúmenes, quedando ocho artículos que se revisaron a texto completo. En esta etapa se excluyeron dos estudios. Un total seis estudios fueron incluidos en esta revisión. De estos, ninguno encontró diferencia significativas entre cementos selladores a base de biocerámicos y a base de resina epóxica, en cuanto a resistencia a la fractura de los dientes tratados endodónticamente. Sin embargo, en 4 estudios los valores más altos encontrados de resistencia a la fractura estuvieron dados por los selladores en base a resina epóxica. Los artículos seleccionados, teniendo en consideración las limitaciones propias de los estudios in vitro, concluyen que en cuanto a resistencia a la fractura no hay diferencias significativas entre el uso de cementos selladores a base de biocerámicos y cementos selladores a base de resina epóxica en la obturación radicular de dientes tratados endodónticamente.
ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to determine through the review of scientific literature, the type of sealer that provides the greatest resistance to fracture in endodontically treated teeth. Bioceramic sealer or epoxy resin based sealers were considered for this analysis. A systematic review was performed according to PRISMA, in the databases Medline, SciELO, Trip Database, LILACS, Web of Science, Cochrane. The search was carried out over the last 10 years, and only in vitro studies were included; 202 articles were found and subsequently, duplicate articles were eliminated, non-inferential studies by title and abstracts were excluded, leaving eight articles that were revised to full text. In this stage, two studies were excluded. In total, six studies were included in this review. Of these, none found significant difference between sealer cements based on bioceramics and based on epoxy resin, in terms of resistance to fracture of endodontically treated teeth. However, in 4 studies the highest found values of fracture resistance were given by sealers based on epoxy resin. Taking into account the limitations inherent to in vitro studies, this review concludes that in terms of fracture resistance, there are no significant differences between the use of sealer based on bioceramics and the based on epoxy resin in the root canal obturation.

CONTEXT: Studies have been conducted to measure the fracture resistance of restored teeth with the current restorative materials. However, most of those studies disregard the cavity size as an influencing variable. AIMS: To evaluate the fracture resistance of prepared and restored maxillary premolars with medium and large preparations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Seventy superior and sound premolars were randomly divided: G1 (control) - sound tooth; G2, G3, and G4 received a Class II mesial-occlusal-distal (MOD) preparation with an occlusal box width 1/3 of the intercuspal distance, and were restored with Filtek Z350 XT, IPS Empress Direct, and Charisma Diamond, respectively; G5, G6, and G7 received a Class II MOD preparation with an occlusal box width 2/3 of the intercuspal distance, and were restored with Filtek Z350 XT, IPS Empress Direct, and Charisma Diamond, respectively. After storage in water, at 37°C, the specimens were subjected to a fracture test under compression in a universal testing machine where the loads were applied vertically and at a speed of 0.5 mm/min. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED: Data were analyzed with two-way ANOVA and Tukey's multiple comparison post hoc test (P < 0.05). RESULTS: G1 presented a fracture resistance significantly higher (P = 0.005) than any other experimental groups. Among the experimental groups, only G5 showed a significantly low fracture resistance (P = 0.019) when compared to the other groups. For the other resins, the change in intercuspal distance from 1/3 to 2/3 the intercuspal distance did not significantly reduce the fracture resistance (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The cavity preparation weakens the remaining tooth structure; however, its resistance could be partially restored using direct adhesive restorations.

OBJECTIVE: This systematic review was performed to answer the following question: do contracted endodontic cavities (CECs) increase resistance to fracture in extracted human teeth compared to traditional endodontic cavities (TECs)? METHODS: A literature search without restrictions was carried out in PubMed, Science Direct, Scopus, Web of Science, and Open Grey databases. Articles were selected by two independent reviewers. In addition, a reference and hand search was also fulfilled. All included in vitro studies evaluated the influence of CECs on strength to fracture in extracted human teeth and compared to TECs. The quality of the selected studies was evaluated and they were classified as having a low, moderate or high risk of bias. RESULTS: A total of 810 articles were obtained in the electronic search. After the application of the eligibility criteria, reference and hand search, and duplicate removal, six studies were included in this systematic review. All included studies evaluated the influence of CECs on strength to fracture in extracted human teeth and compared to TECs. Characteristics investigated in the selected articles included the sample size and tooth type, access cavity design, filling and restoration procedures, load at fracture test characteristics, and results. The studies demonstrated large variability among the fracture resistance values and standard deviations and low power. Three of the reviewed studies presented low risk of bias and the other three showed medium risk of bias. CONCLUSION: Overall, this systematic review of in vitro studies showed that there is no evidence that supports the use of CECs over TECs for the increase of fracture resistance in human teeth. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Recently, CECs have gained attention in endodontics due to maximum tooth structure preservation including the pericervical dentin, which could improve the strength to fracture of endodontically treated teeth. However, the influence of access cavity design on fracture resistance remains limited and controversial.

PURPOSE: To investigate the fracture resistance of weakened roots restored with prefabricated or CAD/CAM-customized posts and cores as well as the thickness of the cement film and the presence of voids in the cement. METHODS: The roots of 40 human premolars were weakened by removing internal dentin with a diamond bur (2.5 mm in the coronal third and 1.5 mm in the apical third) and restored with prefabricated posts (PPs) or customized posts (CPs) with or without a zirconia crown (n= 10). Posts and crowns were cemented with resin cement. Microtomography was used to determine the thickness of the cement film and whether voids were present. After fatigue testing (1 million cycles, 50 N, 5 Hz, 36.5°C), the specimens underwent compression testing with an oblique load (30°, 1 mm/minute) and fracture strengths were recorded (N). Fracture strength and film thickness were analyzed with ANOVA and the Games-Howell test; the variable presence of voids was analyzed with the Mann-Whitney test (α= 5%). RESULTS: Mean fracture strengths varied between 640.4 and 792.9 N and did not differ significantly between groups. The CP group had a thinner cement film and fewer voids than the PP group. There was a positive, statistically significant correlation (Spearman, R=0.488, P= 0.029) between these variables. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: CAD/CAM-manufactured glass-fiber posts and cores do not affect the fracture strength of flared root canals or cause catastrophic failure of the root when used with zirconia crowns.

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of different synthetic and natural-derived root canal irrigants (6% sodium hypochlorite [NaOCl], 6% calcium hypochlorite [Ca(OCl)2] and 6.5% grape seed extract [GSE]) on dentin mechanical properties (flexural strength, ultimate tensile strength [UTS] and fracture resistance). Rectangular-shaped beams and hourglass-shaped sections obtained from mid-coronal and root dentin were treated with 6% NaOCl, 6% Ca(OCl)2 or 6.5% GSE for 30 min. The irrigant solutions were replaced every 5 min. Then, the dentin specimens were rinsed with distilled water (DW) followed by incubation with 17% EDTA for 1 min, and thoroughly rinsed with DW again. Specimens from the control group were tested without prior irrigation. After treatment with the irrigants, dentin beams were used to assess the flexural strength (n = 10) while UTS was evaluated using the root dentin hourglass-shaped sections (n = 10). Similarly, roots with 1 mm of dentinal wall thickness were obtained from human teeth and treated with the same irrigant solutions (n = 10). A compressive loading was applied to the coronal surfaces of roots until fracture. The values of each mechanical test were statistically analyzed individually by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey HSD test (P < 0.05). NaOCl significantly reduced the mechanical properties of dentin in all mechanical tests (P < 0.05) and no statistical difference was found among Ca(OCl)2, GSE and control group (P > 0.05). It can be concluded that Ca(OCl)2 and GSE may be alternative irrigant solutions, since they do not negatively affect the dentin mechanical properties.

AIM: To evaluate, ex vivo, the influence of glass fibre post length and remaining thickness of dentine on the fracture resistance of bovine roots, after thermomechanical ageing. METHODOLOGY: Ninety bovine roots of the same size were root filled and randomly distributed into nine groups (n = 10), according to the root weakening protocol (NW - nonweakened; MW - medium weakened; HW - highly weakened) and post length (7 mm; 9 mm and 12 mm). The weakening of roots was performed using diamond burs, resulting in different thicknesses of remaining dentine. The post spaces were prepared, and in the weakened roots, the glass fibre posts were customized with composite resin, to create posts matching the canal size. Chemically activated resin cement was used to lute the posts. After luting, full crowns made of composite resin were attached to a silicon matrix. To reproduce physiological mobility, the roots were covered with polyether and embedded in polyurethane. The thermomechanical cycling was performed (1 200 000 cycles; 88N; 3,8 Hz; 5 ± 1 °C to 55 ± 1 °C). Then, the specimens were subjected to compressive force in a universal testing machine (1 mm min-1 ; 100 kgf) to analyse the fracture resistance. The specimens were analysed through a stereomicroscope to classify the failure mode (repairable/catastrophic). The values were subjected to statistical analysis (two-way anova and Tukey's test at 5%). The frequencies of failure mode were compared using chi-square test. RESULTS: The association between length and dentine thickness was significant (P > 0.05). The difference was between NW and HW roots for posts of 12 mm in length. There was an association between failure mode and the length and remaining dentine thickness. CONCLUSIONS: Reduced dentine thickness in roots with longer posts had lower fracture resistance values, as catastrophic failure was more predominant.

El objetivo de este estudio fue conocer el estado dental de piezas endodonciadas en correlación conlas variables de restauración coronaria, estado periodontal, nivel de estudio, condición laboral y acceso a servicios odontológicos. Para ello, se analizó una población de individuos compuesta por sujetos concurrentes a los cursos de posgrado de Endodoncia, del Círculo Odontológico de Córdoba, y al servicio de la Cátedra B de Endodoncia de la Facultad de Odontología, Universidad Nacional de Córdoba. Se hicieron tratamientos controlados durante dieciocho meses. La muestra total la conformaron 144 pacientes y se trataron 174 casos. El estudio mostró 37 casos con restauración coronaria definitiva sin fracturas, 52 dientes sin restauración, 21 con fracturas y 1 se perdió. De los dientes restaurados, el55,6 por ciento mostraron periodonto normal; 22,2 por ciento gingivitis, y 22 por ciento periodontitis leve. De los dientes sin restauración, el 3,9 por ciento mostraron periodonto normal; 7,8 por ciento gingivitis; 31,4 por ciento periodontitis leve; 35,3 por ciento periodontitis grave y 21,6 por ciento periodontitis complicada. De los dientes fracturados, el 16,7 por ciento mostraron periodonto normal o gingivitis; 35,3 por ciento periodontitis leve y grave, y un 72,7 por ciento periodontitis complicada. No se demostró asociación entre nivel de estudios, condición laboral y tipo de atención con fracturas de los pacientes, pero los porcentajes sugieren más probabilidad de sufrir fractura en los pacientes de la asistencia pública. El elevado porcentaje de inasistencia a control motivó un análisis específico, del cual se pudo concluir que cuanto más grave la patología periodontal, mayor el porcentaje de inasistencia. El estudio permitió observar desigualdad en el acceso a los servicios odontológicos, dientes no rehabilitados y con compromiso periodontal.
The aim of this study was to know the dental state of endodontic pieces in correlation with different variables such as coronary restoration, periodontic condition, level of study, employment status and access to dental services. A population composed of patients treated in two different postgraduate courses at the Círculo Odontológico de Córdoba and Chair B of Endodontics, Faculty of Dentistry,National University of Córdoba were analyzed. Treatments were clinically and radiographicallycontrolled for eighteen months. The total sample included 144 patients and 174 treatments. The studyshowed 37 cases with definitive coronary restoration without fractures, 52 teeth without restoration,21 with fractures, and 1 was lost. From restored teeth, 55.6% showed normal periodontium, 22.2%gingivitis, and 22% mild periodontitis. From teeth without restoration, 3.9% showed normalperiodontitis, 7.8% gingivitis, 31.4% mild periodontitis, 35.3% severe periodontitis and 21.6%complicated periodontitis. From fractured teeth, 16.7% showed normal periodontitis or gingivitis, 35.3% had mild and severe periodontitis, and 72.7% had complicated periodontitis. There has beenno correlation between level of education, work status, and kind of service on patient with fractures,but the percentage suggest that patients in public assistance are more likely to suffer fracture. The highpercentage of non-attendance to control led to a specific analysis, from which it is possible to concludedthat the more severe the periodontal disease, the greater the percentage of non-attendance. The study showed inequality in access to dental services, un rehabilitated teeth and with periodontal compromise.

Muchas veces se interpreta que entre los odontólogos y los deportistas media sólo un protector bucal. Hoy se considera que la odontología es tan importante como la nutrición y la psicología, las cuales integran el equipo médico de entidades deportivas, sobre todo en los ámbitos de alto rendimiento y profesionalismo. La odontología que se practica a los deportistas no difiere de la que se presta a cualquier otro paciente. Las prácticas odontológicas dependen, en todo caso, de las características propias de esa población, las que determinan una atención diferenciada o adaptada. Nuestra tarea abarca la prevención, el diagnóstico y el tratamiento de las distintas patologías y lesiones. La actuación en el área de la atención primaria de la salud nos conecta con deportistas, lo cual aporta experiencias que guían nuestras acciones. En cuanto a los protectores bucales, necesarios en los deportes de contacto, existen diferentes tipos, espesores y características que se adaptan al deporte en cuestión y a la edad de quien lo practica; y también existen diferentes procedimientos para su confección. Por todo esto, debemos apuntar a que los pacientes acudan a nosotros, en lugar de adquirir directamente en los comercios los dispositivos que pueden no ser apropiados.
Many times, it is believed that a mouthguard is all thatseparates athletes from dentists. Dentistry is nowadays consideredto play an important role in medical support of high performance sport teams as well as nutrition or psychologyand more so in professional practice. Dental care providedto athletes is obviously not different from that performed inregular patients.The difference is given by the distinctive features presentedby them, which will require treatment adapted to their specialneeds. As dentists, we also know that our work includesprevention, diagnosis and subsequent treatment of differentlesions and pathologies. Since our field of action is withinprimary health care, an initial consultation with the athletewill provide the information that will guide our counseling, treatment, and regular controls. Regarding physical contact sports where a mouthguard might be indicated, differenttypes, thicknesses and materials are available as well as different processing techniques. All of these possibilities can beused to motivate athletes for dental consultation leading themto avoid standard devices that are sold in sport stores.

This study evaluated the effects of 10% alphatocopherol on the fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth subjected to tooth bleaching with hydrogen peroxide and immediately restored with composite resin. Fifty bovine incisors were selected, including 10 sound teeth that constituted the control group (G1 (C)). The remaining 40 teeth, which were endodontically treated, were divided into four groups (n = 10): G2 (CR), consisting of teeth immediately restored with composite resin; G3 (HP + CR), consisting of teeth subjected to tooth bleaching with 38% hydrogen peroxide and immediately restored with composite resin; G4 (HP + SA + CR), which received treatment similar to that used for G3, but with 10% sodium ascorbate gel applied after the bleaching protocol; and G5 (HP + AT + CR), which was similar to G4 but included 10% alphatocopherol gel as an antioxidant. After 24 h, composite restorations were performed, and teeth were subjected to a fracture resistance test at a speed of 0.5 mm/min in an electromechanical testing machine. The axial force was applied with an angle of incidence of 135° relative to the long axis of the root. Data were subjected to ANOVA and Tukey tests (p = 0.05). G1 exhibited the highest fracture resistance (p < 0.05). No significant differences among the other experimental groups were observed. The 10% sodium ascorbate and 10% alphatocopherol gels did not improve the fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth subjected to bleaching with 38% hydrogen peroxide.

This study sought to assess the fracture torque resistance of miniimplants used for orthodontic anchorage. Five commercially available brands of miniimplants were used (SIN®, CONEXÃO®, NEODENT®, MORELLI®, and FORESTADENT®). Ten miniimplants of each diameter of each brand were tested, for a total 100 specimens. The miniimplants were subject to a static torsion test as described in ASTM standard F543. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) with the Tukey multiple comparisons procedure was used to assess results. Overall, mean fracture strength ranged from 15.7 to 70.4 N·cm. Miniimplants with larger diameter exhibited higher peak torque values at fracture and higher yield strength, regardless of brand. In addition, significant differences across brands were observed when implants were stratified by diameter. In conclusion, larger miniimplant diameter is associated with increased fracture torque resistance. Additional information on peak torque values at fracture of different commercial brands of miniimplants may increase the success rate of this orthodontic anchorage modality.
O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar a resistência de fratura ao torque de miniimplantes ortodônticos. Foram utiliza das cinco marcas comerciais (SIN®, CONEXÃO®, NEODENT®, MORELLI® e FORESTADENT®). Para cada diâmetro, de cada marca comercial, foram testados 10 miniimplantes, totalizando 100 amostras. Os miniimplantes foram submetidos a um Ensaio Estático de Torção, conforme a norma técnica ASTM F543. Os resultados foram submetidos à Análise de Variância (ANOVA) complementado pelo teste de compa rações múltiplas de Tukey. Os valores médios de resistência de fratura ao torque variaram de 15,7 a 70,4 N·cm e miniimplantes de maior diâmetro apresentaram maiores valores de torque máximo de fratura e de limite de escoamento, independente da marca comercial. Além disso, foram obser vadas diferenças significativas entre as marcas comerciais quando agrupadas de acordo com o diâmetro. Concluise que miniimplantes de maior diâmetro apresentaram maiores valores de resistência de fratura ao torque. Informações sobre o torque máximo de fratura das diferentes marcas comerciais podem aumentar o índice de sucesso deste método de ancoragem ortodôntica.

BACKGROUND/AIM: In some parts of the world, revascularization may not be the most feasible treatment option for necrotic immature teeth. Therefore, apexification remains the most widely utilized treatment option for these cases. This study aimed to evaluate the fracture resistance of weakened bovine tooth roots treated with various irrigant solutions as well as long-term application of calcium hydroxide intracanal medication (ICM). MATERIAL AND METHODS: One hundred seventy bovine teeth were randomly divided into three experimental groups (n = 50) and two control groups (n = 10). Group SS was irrigated with physiologic solution; group CHX was treated with 2% chlorhexidine gel and group NaOCl was irrigated with 1% sodium hypochlorite. After instrumentation, root canals were dressed with calcium hydroxide and evaluated at different periods (15, 60, 90, 180, and 360 days). The specimens were loaded at a 45° angle to measure fracture resistance through the use of an EMIC test machine. RESULTS: A decrease in fracture resistance was observed during the time of ICM dressing. The highest values of fracture resistance were observed in group SS with 15 days of ICM, not differing from the control group. Irrigation with NaOCl associated with ICM for 15 days presented the lowest fracture resistance; however, a statistically significant difference was not observed when compared with SS and CHX in the same time period. In longer periods of exposure to ICM (180 and 360 days), root canals irrigated with NaOCl and CHX showed significantly lower fracture resistance than SS (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Apexification with periodic changes of calcium hydroxide medicament leads to weakness of the teeth independent of the irrigation solution used.
