| Abstract: | The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of flexural modulus of non-metal posts on the fracture strength and failure mode of composite resin cores. Thirty-two human premolars were divided into four groups: prefabricated glass fiber post with 1.0 mm diameter and composite resin core (Group PE1.0), that with 1.5 mm diameter and composite resin core (Group PE1.5), experimental post (flexural modulus; 4.25GPa) and composite resin core (Group EX), and preparation for abutment teeth only (Group NT). After a static loading test, the fracture strength and failure mode were recorded. Group NT (1670.81 N) showed higher fracture strength than Groups PE1.0 (866.44 N), PE1.5 (825.19 N) and EX (1075.63 N) (p<0.05). This study showed that the fracture strength of endodontically treated teeth restored with composite resin cores is not influenced by the flexural modulus of non-metal posts. |
