Effect of Hand and Rotary Instruments on the Fracture Resistance of Teeth: An In Vitro Study

Abstract: Objective: Endodontic treatment should be both conservative and effective. Endodontic instruments with a greater taper are used for coronal flaring, for proper debridement with efficient irrigation. However, increased taper of an instrument can remove a larger amount of pericervical dentin, compromising the strength of the tooth. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of hand files, ProTaper Universal, ProTaper Next, and V Taper rotary instrument systems on the fracture resistance of teeth. Material… Show more

“…A uniform cement film thickness of 25 and 50 microns has been accepted for luting fixed restorations. To obtain optimal and uniform thickness of the cement, a precise fit of the post in the post space is required [ 7 ] but, due to the irregularities of the root canal morphology or the tapered endodontic preparations, obtaining a precisely fitting post and a uniform film thickness often require extensive post-space preparation that may lead to weakening of the remaining tooth structure, compromising the longevity of endodontically treated teeth [ 8 ]. Therefore, clinicians need to balance a perfect fit of the post inside the root canal with the amount of internal root dentin to be removed.…”

“…Complete removal of a Type III invagination to create a single canal allows for more precise cleaning and subsequent filling but has the disadvantage of removing a large amount of dental tissue. The loss of tooth structure plays a key role in its long‐term survival [22].…”

“…Tooth fracture is considered to be one of the most undesirable outcomes of endodontically treated teeth (ETT) (1). The strength, integrity, and pattern of force distribution during mastication have been reported as they have a great impact on ETT (2,3). ETT being susceptible to fracture is related to the loss of tooth structure due to caries or during different endodontic procedures; such as access cavity and canal preparations (4).…”

“…ETT being susceptible to fracture is related to the loss of tooth structure due to caries or during different endodontic procedures; such as access cavity and canal preparations (4). Therefore; maintaining the tooth structure not only increases the fracture resistance but also preserves its structural integrity (3). Minimally invasive endodontics (MIE) is a concept that focuses on minimal mechanical shaping and preparation as this leads to better maintaining the original canal anatomy (5).…”
