Oral rehabilitation of endodontically treated roots is inherently difficult, and the functional loads result in extremely complex structural responses of the oral tissues. The objective of this study was to evaluate, by finite element analysis, stresses induced in an endodontically treated maxillary central incisor that was restored with a cast metallic post and core system and a overlying cera...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the success and survival of restored endodontically treated teeth (ETT) in a general practice environment related to periodontal parameters. Data from 360 restored ETT treated between 2000 and 2011 were collected. Dates of interventions like restorations, repairs, replacements and extractions were recorded. Additionally, general information about ...

The objective of this retrospective practice-based study was to evaluate the survival molar teeth and endodontic success after complex treatment up 89 months. Endodontically (Endodontic Treatment Classification (ETC) scores II III) treated first second molars between January 2011-October 2017 within a referral setting were included. Open apices, combined surgical treatment, ETC score I, patient...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the stress distribution in a maxillary central incisor restored with various post-core applications. The study used a three-dimensional finite element method. The tooth was assumed to be endodontically treated with a porcelain crown. Two different sizes of Flexi-post, Cera-post, and Composipost were compared for 200 N palatal and incisal loads. It was d...

An Endo perio lesion has been one of the most common problems associated with the tooth. The simultaneous involvement of pulpal problems and inflammatory periodontal disease can complicate diagnosis and treatment planning. The present case report shows the importance of periodontal therapy that includes open debridement of the defect followed by placement of alloplastic bone graft (G-bone) in f...

conclusions the clinical success rates of endodontically treated premolars restored with fiber posts and direct composite restorations, direct composite restorations with cusp capping and simple direct composite restoration were perfect after one year of follow-up evaluation. background endodontically treated teeth need to be restored in a manner to provide protection for the remaining tooth st...

In this clinical study, 19 full metal crown restorations of canine teeth were placed in seven working dogs. Thirteen canine teeth were severely abraded with no involvement of the pulp cavities; six fractured canine teeth were endodontically treated. At least 1/3 of the coronal part of the canine tooth was available for a supragingivally performed, minimal tooth crown preparation. An adhesive te...

BACKGROUND Apical periodontitis (AP) is an inflammatory disease around the apex of a tooth root. Reported prevalence of AP ranges from 27% to 83% while the data about most post-Soviet countries are still missing. Knowing the prevalence of AP within a certain population helps to plan the treatment need and evaluate the success of endodontic interventions. We aimed to collect data about prevalenc...
