“…Braz et al . used a similar method to reinforce weakened root canals with bulk-fill composite to reduce polymerization shrinkage stress but did not ensure adequate polymerization of the bulk-fill composite resin at apical one-third and suggested the use of dual-cured composite resins ( 17 ). In the present study, Luxacore Z dual-cured composite resin, presented for foundation restorations, was used in the DCC group to strengthen canal walls and cement fiber post simultaneously.…”

“…demonstrated that direct and indirect anatomic posts could be an alternative to cast metal post-and-cores during the treatment of overflared root canals ( 15 ). Some studies have recently proposed another method for relining and reinforcing weakened root canal walls with composite resin before fiber post cementation ( 10 , 17 , 18 ). Gomes et al .…”

Background This study is done to evaluate the effect of different reinforcement techniques of overflared root canals with fiber posts on the fracture resistance of endodontically treated anterior teeth. It also introduces a new technique for simultaneous reinforcement and cementation of fiber posts using dual-cured core build-up composite resin. Material and Methods The crowns of 48 single-rooted maxillary anterior teeth were cut and randomly divided into 4 groups (n=12) based on root reinforcement techniques after root canal treatment and post space preparation: Group 1: self-adhesive resin cement (SARC), Group2: dual-cure composite resin (DCC), Group3: Composite resin reinforcement (CRR), Group 4: Direct anatomical post (DAP). Then a core was made for the roots. The periodontal ligament was simulated using a thin layer of PVC impression material. A universal testing machine applied a compressive force to the lingual surface at an angle of 135 ° and 1 mm/min speed. Data were analyzed using One-Way ANOVA and a post-hoc Tukey test. Fracture patterns were analyzed using the Chi-square test ( p <0.05). Results The difference between the control and DAP group was statistically significant ( p =0.01), but there were no significant differences between other groups ( p >0.05). Regarding fracture patterns, there were no significant differences between groups. Conclusions All reinforcement techniques increased the fracture strength compared to the control group. However, DAP was the only group that had a statistically significant difference. CRR and DCC presented intermediate values without significant differences. Key words: Fiber post, endodontically treated teeth, root canals, reinforcement, fracture strength.

The compromised tooth structure after endodontic treatment necessitates the use of post and core for structural durability. Management of the flared root canal is still a tough obstacle for the clinicians. Reinforcing the root canal space with the customised anatomic post thus regains the lost structure within the canal and aids in establishing a great strength and stability to the tooth structure. The report of this case scenario aims on clinical technique of fabricating anatomic post with glass - fibre posts and composite resin on a central and lateral incisor.

“…Although different treatment modalities have been described for rehabilitating these flared root canals, treatment is always challenging for clinicians [ 2 ]. Traditionally, intracanal posts are used for restoring these severely damaged teeth to provide retention and support for the final crown.…”

Restoring an Extremely Destructed Tooth with Flared Root Canal Walls: A Case Report

Reconstructing severely damaged teeth has always presented a challenge when the remaining crown structure is limited, often requiring retention from the root canal using intracanal posts. However, the real challenge is when the root canal walls are also weak, and there is a high risk of vertical root fracture due to the wedging forces of a rigid post. This case report presents a tooth with extremely flared (0.3mm) root canal walls, successfully restored with a newly introduced polymer made of polyether ether ketone (PEEK), with one-year follow-up. Due to its close elastic modulus to dentin, capacity to bond effectively to tooth structure, shock-absorbing properties, and thereby facilitating favorable stress distribution, utilizing this material for an intracanal post has the potential to mitigate the risk of fractures often associated with cast metal posts. It combines the good fitness of cast posts with the low modulus of elasticity and optical properties of prefabricated fiber posts.
