introduction: application of light transmitting posts to restore greatly damaged endodontically treated teeth has been increased. it is suspected that light intensity decreases as it passes throughout different materials. this can reduce the degree of conversion required for adequate bond strength throughout the length of these posts. the objective of this study was to evaluate the amount of li...

statement of problem: currently there are three recognized theories about the diameter of prepared dowel space in endodontically treated teeth. diameter of the dowel is commonly contributed to the root fracture. purpose: this study used a 3 dimensional (3d) finite element method to predict stress distribution in endodontically treated central maxillary tooth with cast post and core with various...
