Abstract:

Objective To investigate the effect of traditional endodontic cavity and minimally invasive endodontics root canal therapy on the resistance of teeth restored with porcelain crowns. Methods Three dimensional virtual models of cracked teeth with three different depth of crack were made to simulate minimally invasive endodontics and traditional endodontic cavity, and complete root canal therapy and porcelain crown restoration. Under the condition of vertical loading and oblique loading, the distribution and numerical value of tooth stress were recorded. Results Under the two loading conditions, the stress of the teeth before the treatment was concentrated at the bottom of the crack, and the local stress concentration increased with the deepening of the depth of the crack. The local stress of the abutment was mainly distributed at the shoulder after the restoration of the porcelain full crown. The local stress concentration has been greatly alleviated. There was no significant difference in the effect of different endodontic cavity on the stress distribution and magnitude of cracked teeth. Conclusion The restora-tion of porcelain crowns after root canal therapy is an effective measure for the treatment of cracked teeth. Compared with the traditional endodontic cavity, the minimally invasive endodontics cannot improve the stress distribution of cracked teeth after full crown restoration.
