Mechanical behavior of endodontically treated teeth: A three-dimensional finite element analysis using displacement vector.
Journal of Prosthodontics : Official Journal of the American College of Prosthodontists 2023 December 9
PURPOSE: This study aimed to analyze the effects of core materials, remaining tooth structures, and interfacial bonding on stress distribution in endodontically treated teeth using finite element analysis (FEA).
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Three-dimensional FEA was conducted using a reverse engineering technique based on maxillary premolars scanned by micro-computed tomography. Six models were generated with or without ferrules and with one of the following three abutment systems: metal core, resin core, or resin core with fiber posts. In each model, bonding and debonding were assumed in the dentin and surrounding structures: bonded and debonded models. The maximum principal stress values were recorded, and stress distribution of the entire restored teeth and dentin was generated. Furthermore, the distribution of the displacement vector of the debonded models was generated.
RESULTS: In comparing the bonded and debonded models, the debonded models showed larger values for tensile stresses than those in bonded models for all abutment models. The models without ferrules rotated around the center of the abutment, whereas those with ferrules did not show remarkable displacement in the analysis.
CONCLUSION: FEA assuming fracture of adhesive interface proved to be an effective method to clarify the significance of ferrules. It prevents stress concentration in dentin by reducing the rotation of the abutment, even when the adhesive fails. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
