PURPOSE The analysis of the complex model of fiber post and ferrule is given and studied in this paper. A novel approach and a solution to the evaluation of stress of post and core system within the ferrule effect are proposed. METHODS Sixty freshly extracted premolars were selected for the study. The following experimental groups were therefore defined (n = 10): (1) 5 mm, (2) 7 mm, (3) 9 mm,...

BACKGROUND Studies have been carried out on endodontically treated teeth restored with and without ferrule, and influence of the cementing medium, to evaluate their effect on fracture resistance. This study was conducted on 28 freshly extracted maxillary central incisors. Specimens were restored with two types of post designs, and cemented with two different luting agents, and tested for fractu...

www.scielo.br/jaos O This study investigated the effect of different ferrule heights on endodontically ! ! "# Ivoclar-Vivadent) luted with self-polymerized resin cement (Multilink, Ivoclar Vivadent) while the coronal section was restored with hybrid composite core build-up material (Tetric Ceram, Ivoclar-Vivadent), which received all-ceramic crown. Different ferrule heights were investigated: 1...

UNLABELLED When the supra-marginal dentine of a root-filled tooth is engaged by a crown, it may create a stronger tooth/restoration complex. This has been termed the ferrule effect. This paper reviews the current evidence for this effect and examines the influence various post and core materials have on it. Means of achieving a ferrule are discussed and the importance of planning for failure is...

BACKGROUND The ferrule effect in root treated teeth requiring cast posts and cores has been shown to greatly improve fracture resistance. Studies have also shown that in the case of a cast post and core, the longer the ferrule, the greater the fracture resistance. However few studies have considered the effect of different ferrule designs on prefabricated post and composite core systems. AIM ...

LITERATURE REVIEW A ferrule is a metal ring or cap used to strengthen the end of a stick or tube. It has been proposed that the use of a ferrule as part of the core or artificial crown may be of benefit in reinforcing root-filled teeth. A review of the literature investigating this effect is presented. The literature demonstrates that a ferrule effect occurs owing to the artificial crown bracin...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The in vitro effectiveness of a uniform circumferential ferrule has been established in the literature; however, the effect of a nonuniform circumferential ferrule height on fracture resistance is unknown. PURPOSE This in vitro study investigated the resistance to static loading of endodontically treated teeth with uniform and nonuniform ferrule configurations. MATERIAL...

An abutment for a fixed partial denture may not contain enough tooth structure, such that the abutment does not provide an adequate 'ferrule effect'. A crown or bridge dental prosthesis that is cemented onto such an abutment/s may undergo biomechanical failure. Here, the tooth, core, and post complex, on which the crown is cemented, may fracture off from the abutment, causing the crown to separ...
