Background: This study aimed to examine the effect of the force applied by rubber dam clamps made from different materials on mandibular first molar teeth with various designs of endodontic access cavities using finite element analysis.
Methods: A intact tooth (IT) and seven different endodontic access cavities namely, a traditional endodontic cavity (TRADAC), a guided endodontic cavity (GEC), a conservative endodontic cavity (CAC), an ultra-conservative access cavity (UAC), a truss access endodontic cavity (TRSAC), a mesial caries access cavity (MCAC), and a distal caries access cavity (DCAC), along with two different clamp finite element models, were created. The clamp models were made of polyether ether ketone (PEEK) and stainless steel (SS).

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the stress distribution in an endodontically treated tooth restored with two different reinforcing fibers followed by direct composite restoration using a finite element analysis (FEA).
Settings And Design: FEA.
Subjects And Methods: Two three-dimensional models of endodontically treated maxillary central incisors were restored with two reinforcing fibers: the polyethylene fibers (PFs) and the short fiber-reinforced composite (SFRC), respectively.

Introduction: This study aimed to assess the fracture resistance of mandibular first molars after preparation with 3 different access cavity designs and 2 rotary systems using finite element analysis.
Methods: Six 3-dimensionally printed mandibular first molars simulating natural teeth received traditional, conservative, and ultraconservative (truss) access cavity preparations. The root canals in each group were instrumented with either XP-Endo Shaper (FKG Dentaire, La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland) or TruNatomy (Dentsply Sirona, Ballaigues, Switzerland) rotary files.

Purpose: To evaluate the reliability and failure modes of ultrathin (0.5 mm) lithium disilicate, translucent and ultra-translucent zirconia crowns for posterior teeth restorations.
Materials And Methods: Fifty-four mandibular first molar crowns of three ceramic materials: (1) Lithium disilicate (e.

Background: Compression injuries of the thoracolumbar spine without neurological impairment are usually treated with minimally invasive procedures. Intravertebral expandable implants represent an alternative strategy in fractures with low fragments' displacement.
Methods: Patients with A2, A3 and A4 fractures of the T10-L2 spinal segment without neurological impairment, fracture gap >2 mm, vertebra plana, pedicle rupture, pedicle diameter <6 mm, spinal canal encroachment ≥50%, and vertebral body spread >30% were treated with the SpineJack device.
