Effect of zirconia tube reinforcement on fracture resistance and microleakage of endodontically treated premolars with flared root canals under cyclic loading

MYMingchen YuWKWataru KomadaSOShinya Oishi

Key Points

  • The research aims to evaluate the effects of zirconia tube reinforcement on fracture resistance and microleakage in endodontically treated premolars with flared root canals.
  • Conducted experiments on endodontically treated premolars with flared root canals
  • Applied zirconia tube reinforcement
  • Tested fracture resistance under cyclic loading
  • Assessed microleakage levels
  • Zirconia tubes significantly enhanced fracture resistance in treated premolars
  • There was a notable reduction in microleakage in samples reinforced with zirconia tubes

Abstract

Zirconia tubes enhanced fracture resistance and reduced microleakage under cyclic loading in endodontically treated premolars. Foundation restorations using zirconia tubes may be a reliable reinforcement option for structurally weakened roots. Further clinical and long-term studies are required to confirm these findings.
