Objectives: To compare the mechanical performance of partially replaced (repaired) intra-coronal restorations to totally replaced ones in root canal-treated teeth.

Methods: Thirty maxillary second premolars were selected according to strict criteria, mounted on moulds, and had mesio-occluso-distal (MOD) cavities prepared. Resin composite restorative material was used to perform the initial restoration, followed by aging procedures using thermo-mechanical cycling fatigue to replicate six months of intraoral aging.

The use of tissue bioengineering strategies in dentistry has gained relevance. Many studies indicate that stem cells associated with biomaterials can regenerate intraoral tissues and have been applied to patients with cleft lip and palate (CLP). One of the treatments is alveolar bone reconstruction through bone grafts, where the bone is removed from the donor site and placed in the alveolar cleft.
