Background: Restoration of endodontically treated teeth is one of the most challenging part of operative dentistry. The introduction of fiber-reinforced composite has provided a considerable opportunity to modify material's behavior and to enhance the response of existing materials.
Aim: The aim of the study is to comparatively evaluate the efficacy of fiber-reinforced composite resins and nanohybrid resin impregnated with glass fibers as postendodontic restoration in molars.
Materials And Methods: Fifty patients with deep occlusal carious lesion requiring root canal treatment were selected and treated. For postendodontic restoration, it was divided into Group A (Interlig) and Group B (ever-X posterior) which were eventually restored according to the manufacturer's instructions. Patients were recalled for evaluation at 3-, 6-, 12-month interval. The restorations were evaluated according to modified United States Public Health Service Criteria.
Statistical Analysis: Chi-square test was used for intergroup comparison.
Results: A statistically significant difference was noted in terms of fracture of tooth and ever-X posteriors proved to be a superior material and no statistically significant difference observed for marginal discoloration, marginal integrity, fracture of core-build up and secondary caries at the evaluation period of 1 year.
Conclusion: Ever-X posteriors performed better than Interlig group as postendodontic restoration after 1 year of evaluation.

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the compliance of dentists in Croatia and the Czech Republic with endodontic recommendations and identify the subjective and objective factors influencing their adherence to them.
Methodology: A total of 1386 dentists from Croatia and the Czech Republic participated in an online survey through a self-administered, author-designed questionnaire. After excluding those who did not perform root canal treatments (RCT), 1376 responses (394 from Croatia and 982 from the Czech Republic) were statistically analysed.

Background/purpose: Selecting an appropriate coronal restoration after root canal treatment requires careful consideration, however, there is a lack of established web-based tool that is based on clear guidelines for suitable post-endodontic restorations. Hence, we aimed to design and determine the acceptability of an interactive application to aid the decision making process for post-endodontic restoration among the undergraduate dental students.
Materials And Methods: A web-based post-endodontic restoration decision making interactive application, ( was developed after a detailed review of available literature.

Objectives: The aim of this non-interventional, multi-center, prospective, practice-based study was, firstly, to evaluate the longevity of composite build-ups in endodontically treated teeth, treated with root canal therapy (ETT), without post placement and secondly, to identify and analyze factors influencing the success of these reconstructions.
Methods: Each of seven general dental practitioners placed up to 50 composite build-ups without additional posts in ETT. Teeth were restricted to incisors, canines and premolars.

Introduction: We have recently reported the clinical efficacy of mirogabalin for occlusal pain due to post-traumatic trigeminal neuropathic pain (PTTN-occlusal pain) after endodontic treatment according to the International Classification of Orofacial Pain criteria. This study aimed to determine the mirogabalin administration period and timing of dose reduction and suspension for treating this condition based on managing a certain number of cases.
Methods: Patients diagnosed with PTTN-occlusal pain after or during endodontic treatment were included in the study.

Objective: To evaluate the outcome of teeth filled with a single cone technique and a premixed bioceramic sealer at 3 years of follow-up.
Methods: Healthy patients were consecutively treated by a cohort of postgraduate operators. Root canal filling procedures were performed with NiTi rotary instrumentation, while non-surgical retreatments were performed using NiTi reciprocating instruments.
