The purpose of this study was to evaluate the combined effect of ferrule height and post length on fracture resistance and failure mode of endodontically treated teeth restored with glass fibre posts, composite resin cores and crowns. Ninety human maxillary central incisors were endodontically treated and divided into three groups (n = 30) according to the ferrule heights: 4, 2 and 0 mm, respectively. Post spaces in each group were prepared at 2/3, 1/2 and 1/3 of the root length (n = 10). The specimens were received fibre posts, composite resin core build up and cast metal crowns. After thermocycling, compressive static load was applied at an angle of 135° to the crowns. Two-way analysis of variance showed significant differences in the failure load in the ferrule height groups, no significant differences in post length groups and no significant interaction between ferrule heights and post lengths. More restorable failure modes were observed.

Purpose: To investigate how varying ferrule heights and the number of glass fiber posts affect fracture resistance and behavior of endodontically treated maxillary first premolars with substantial loss of tooth structure.

Materials And Methods: Twenty-four extracted endodontically treated human maxillary first premolars were divided into three groups (n = 8) based on ferrule height and post number. The groups were as follows: premolars of 2 mm ferrule height that were restored with single posts (control group), premolars of 0.

Clinical Considerations for Crown Lengthening: A Comprehensive Review.

Cureus

Department of Dentistry, Ministry of Health, Kuwait, KWT.

Clinical crown lengthening is a surgical procedure that involves the manipulation of gingival tissue, designed to expose sound tooth structure for restorative purposes by apically repositioning the gingival tissue, with or without the removal of alveolar bone. Crown lengthening may be subdivided as functional or esthetic, according to the purpose of treatment. Functional crown lengthening pertains to the exposure of subgingival caries, fractures, or to avoid invading the biologic width.

Aim: This case series was to describe the use of surgical extrusion for three different cases as a technique to re-establish the biological width in patients with insufficient crown height.

Background: Surgical extrusion serves as an important means to reestablishing a proper biological width. Such method provides an excellent alternative for the restoration of teeth with insufficient ferrule and ensuring a suitable dental restoration.

Article Synopsis
  • The study evaluated the survivability of surgically extruded teeth and examined factors affecting the surrounding hard and soft tissues.
  • A total of 46 complicated crown-root fractured maxillary incisors were treated, with a mean follow-up period of 2.8 years showing a high survival rate of 95.7%.
  • Key predictors for successful outcomes included a favorable crown-root ratio and the use of atraumatic techniques during the extraction process.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how the ferrule effect and different types of dental posts affect stress distribution in three styles of maxillary central incisors: Fat, Medium, and Slim.
  • Nine models were created to simulate each tooth type with different post materials (metallic and fiber) and ferrule heights (none, 1 mm, and 2 mm).
  • Results showed that Slim incisors had the highest stress levels, especially when using metallic posts, highlighting the need for tailored dental treatments based on individual tooth morphology.
