Innovative Study Reveals Impact of Intraradicular Posts on Dentin Stress Distribution

Posted: December 20, 2024
This study compared stress distribution on root dentin of endodontically treated teeth rehabilitated with different types of intraradicular posts using finite element analysis. The presence of a ferrule was found to be a protective factor for the remaining tooth structure, with oblique forces posing a greater risk than vertical forces. Milled glass fiber posts exhibited better fracture resistance and adhesion strength, especially in the absence of a ferrule. Understanding the impact of post type and ferrule presence on stress distribution is crucial for enhancing tooth durability and preventing fractures.
