Static Loading of Different Intraradicular Preparation Depths of Trinia Endocrowns in Maxillary Canines

The aim of this study is to compare the fracture resistance of canine teeth restored using TRINIA Endocrowns with three different types of preparations (2, 3, and 4 intracanal preparations). Thirty maxillary-extracted canines were collected. All teeth were fixed in orthodontic acrylic resin and decapitated at the level of the proximal cemento-enamel junction (CEJ). After being endodontically treated, specimens were distributed equally between 3 groups ( = 10) with different preparation depths (GT: 2 mm Intraradicular Preparation, GH: 3 mm Intraradicular Preparation, GF: 4 mm Intraradicular Preparation). Thirty TRINIA endocrowns were dry milled. After surface treatment, all endocrowns were bonded to their corresponding roots using Permaflo a dual-cure resin cement. Each specimen was then fixed in the lower part of a universal testing machine with a load cell of 5 KN, at an angle of 45 degrees to the tooth long-axis at 0.5 mm/min crosshead speed. Failure loads were recorded in Newton's. Data were recorded, organized, and statistically investigated. Shapiro-Wilk tests revealed that the data were not normally distributed. Descriptive statistics revealed a high mean fracture resistance of GH (647 N), then GT (475.6 N), and finally GF (353.9 N). The Kruskal-Wallis test revealed a significant difference that existed between the groups being studied ( = 0.036). TRINIA endocrowns with intracanal preparations of 2 and 3 mm provide more promising fracture resistance than those with intracanal preparations of 4 mm as a way of treating of root-canal-treated maxillary canines. TRINIA endocrowns (2 and 3 mm intracanal preparations) are as promising as fiber posts and all ceramic crowns in terms of fracture resistance. TRINIA endocrowns with 2 mm intracanal preparations are mostly reparable after failure, but those of 3 and 4 mm are mostly irreparable after failure. Modifying endocrowns to have intraradicular projections, simulating Nayyar core, may improve the success and longevity of endocrowns in anterior teeth.
