Abstract:

BACKGROUND: In recent years, the clinical use of glass fiber and carbon fiber post has obtained a more satisfactory result, but the bonding between the fiber post and root canal dentin also need further research.
OBJECTIVE: To compare the fracture resistance ability of three post-core systems in the repair of the first premolar, and to analyze the influential factors.
METHODS: Totally 36 single rooted first premolars from orthodontic patients were divided into A, B and C three groups, respectively after endodontic treatment (group A: MACRO-LOCK quartz fiber with FIBERCONETM post-core system, group B: Nr-Cr post-core system; group C: MACRO-LOCK quartz fiber post-core system). After restoration with Nr-Cr PFM full crown, they were fixed in universal testing machine for loading, until the specimen destroyed instantly, to record the load to fracture (in Newton) and the load-displacement curve.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The median fracture values of three groups were as follows: Group A: (403.99±15.91) N, Group B: (304.31±16.95) N, Group C: (233.48±22.56) N. The group A showed a significantly higher level of fracture strength compared to the other groups and the fracture model of MACRO-LOCK quartz fiber with FIBERCONETM post-core system allowed the possibility of re-preparation (P < 0.05). The MACRO-LOCK quartz fiber with FIBERCONETM post-core system showed a significantly higher level of fracture strength compared to the other groups and strengthened the flared roots.
