Introduction: The longevity of an endodontically treated tooth depends on fracture resistance by preserving more remaining dentin thickness. The aim of this study is to determine which file system preserves more remaining dentin thickness.

Materials And Methods: Protaper universal, M-two, Protaper Next, Trunatomy, I-Race and mandibular first premolar. The removed dentin thickness during instrumentation of each file system was noted by taking the difference of RDT of pre-instrumentation and post-instrumentation with the aid of CBCT.

Results And Discussion: TRN [Group-4] shows the least aggressive cutting with maximal preservation of remaining dentin thickness at 3 mm and 6 mm from the apex at both mesiodistal and buccolingual dimensions. M-two [Group-2] shows maximum removed dentin thickness at 3 mm from the apex both mesiodistal dimension and buccolingual dimension. PTU [Group-1] shows maximum removed dentin thickness at 6 mm from the apex at mesiodistal dimension. M-two [Group-2] shows maximum removed dentin thickness at 6 mm from the apex at the buccolingual dimension.

Conclusion: In this study, it is concluded that the Trunatomy file system preserves more remaining dentin thickness both mesiodistally and buccolingually both 3 mm and 6 mm from the apex.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate cracked teeth and vertical root fracture observable on micro-CT images of extracted roots of mandibular incisors, after fiber post removal.

Materials And Methods: Thirty mandibular incisors were selected with any degree of slight incisal wear inspected with the aid of a stereomicroscope under 12x magnification, in order to have a group of young adult specimens according to the criteria of Hugoson et al. A sample of twelve mandibular incisors were selected, aged between 20 and 30 years old, with similar dentine volume and thickness.

Electronic address:

Statement Of Problem: Endodontically treated teeth often require post-and-core restorations for structural support because of extensive hard tissue loss. Assessment of the effect of the residual dentin thickness on the biomechanical performance of these restorations is lacking.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the residual dentin thickness in mandibular premolars after post-and-core restorations using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and to analyze the stress distribution with finite element analysis (FEA).

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate, using micro-computed tomography (microCT), the impact of various mechanized systems on the geometry of the root canal system (RCS) and dentin thickness in mandibular first molars. The hypothesis proposed that different systems would produce significant variations in RCS preparation.

Methods: Mesial and distal canals of mandibular molars were selected and divided into five groups (n=10) based on the system used: 2Shape (25.

Objective: To evaluate color masking and relative translucency parameter (RTP) of increasing dentin thicknesses from different resin composites, with or without opacifiers, on a veneer dental preparation and resin disks.

Material And Methods: Artificial darkened lateral incisors with 1mm-thick veneers preparations were used to evaluate color masking of different resinous materials, with or without opacifiers: IPS Empress Direct (ED) with or without ED Opaque; and Essentia (ES) with or without ES Masking Liner. For the RTP test; disc-shaped specimens were performed and evaluated with a spectrophotometer (VITA Easyshade) against black and C4 backgrounds.

The Aim Of The Study: Was a comparative analysis of the structural features of the endodontic system and the thickness of hard dental tissues over the past ten centuries.

Materials And Methods: 180 teeth of people who lived from the X to XX centuries AD were studied using cone-beam computed tomography in endodontic mode: the volume of the endodontic system and the thickness of hard dental tissues were calculated using the algorithm developed by us. The Pearson correlation coefficient and Student's t-test were calculated in Excel program, and the data was analyzed with GraphPad Prism 8 Statistics Guide statistical program.
