“…This was because the loading methods used in this study were area loading, and the stresses were concentrated in the loading area and then transferred to other areas. The study by Rocha et al also found that stresses will be concentrated in the loading area of the restoration [ 35 ].…”

Background Margin designs and loading conditions can impact the mechanical characteristics and survival of endocrowns. Analyzing the stress distribution of endocrowns with various margin designs and loading conditions can provide evidence for their clinical application. Methods Three finite element analysis models were established based on the margin designs: endocrown with a butt-joint type margin (E0), endocrown with a 90° shoulder (E90), and endocrown with a 135° shoulder (E135). The E0 group involved lowering the occlusal surface and preparing the pulp chamber. The E90 group created a 90° shoulder on the margin of model E0, measuring 1.5 mm high and 1 mm wide. The E135 group featured a 135° shoulder. The solids of the models were in fixed contact with each other, and the materials of tooth tissue and restoration were uniform, continuous, isotropic linear elasticity. Nine static loads were applied, with a total load of 225 N, and the maximum von Mises stresses and stress distribution were calculated for teeth and endocrowns with different margin designs. Results Compared the stresses of different models under the same loading condition. In endocrowns, when the loading points were concentrated on the buccal side, the maximum von Mises stresses were E0 = E90 = E135, and when there was a lingual loading, they were E0 < E90 = E135. In enamel, the maximum von Mises stresses under all loading conditions were E0 > E90 > E135. In dentin, the maximum von Mises stresses of the three models were basically similar except for load2, load5 and load9. Compare the stresses of the same model under different loading conditions. In endocrowns, stresses were higher when lingual loading was present. In enamel and dentin, stresses were higher when loaded obliquely or unevenly. The stresses in the endocrowns were concentrated in the loading area. In enamel, stress concentration occurred at the cementoenamel junction. In particular, E90 and E135 also experienced stress concentration at the shoulder. In dentin, the stresses were mainly concentrated in the upper section of the tooth root. Conclusion Stress distribution is similar among the three margin designs of endocrowns, but the shoulder-type designs, especially the 135° shoulder, exhibit reduced stress concentration.
