BACKGROUND We conducted a finite element analysis to evaluate stress levels in incisor teeth restored with custom polyetheretherketone (PEEK) dental post-cores compared to conventional post-cores. MATERIAL AND METHODS Using micro-computed tomography (μCT) imaging data, a 3D model of a maxillary incisor was created. For each material type, 3D mesh models were developed via specialized software.
