Further aim was to evaluate the effect of FC resin on the failure mode of the restoration. Material and Methods: The experimental composite resin (FC) was prepared by mixing 22.5 wt% of short E-glass fibers (3 mm in length) and 22.5 wt% of semi-interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) resin with 55 wt% of silane treated silica fillers. Thirty extracted sound upper central incisors were used. Twenty teeth were prepared by cutting the clinical crown 2 mm above the cemento-enamel junction horizontally. Restorations were made by two techniques (n=10). Group A (control group) contained samples of sound incisor teeth. Group B had teeth restored using glass fiber post (everStick, Stick- Teck) and PFC (Filtek Z250, 3M-ESPE) to build up core and complete crown. In Group C, the teeth were restored with FC as post-core and complete crown of PFC. The root canals were prepared and posts were cemented with a dual cure resin cement. The restorations were polymerized with a hand-light curing unit. All restored teeth were stored in water at room temperature for 24 h before they were statically loaded with speed of 1.0 mm/min until fracture. Data were analyzed using ANOVA (p=0.05). Failure modes were visually examined. Results: ANOVA revealed that restored incisors (Group B and C) had a statistically significantly lower load-bearing capacity (p<0.05) than the control group. Restorations made from FC post-core and PFC coverage (Group C) gave force value of 363 N (112 SD), which was higher than the value of Group B (211 N, 50 SD). Conclusions: Within the limitations of this study, the teeth restored with experimental fiber composite post-core demonstrated higher load bearing capacity than those with fiber post and PFC core. 3 18 2009 36 41 TODENTJ-3-36 1 10.2174/crossmark_policy opendentistryjournal.com benthamopen.com true Peer Reviewed Single blind Checked with iThenticate 2008-12-11 2009-2-4 2009-2-26 2009-3-18 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ 10.2174/1874210600903010036 1553505040 https://opendentistryjournal.com/VOLUME/3/PAGE/36/ https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V3/TODENTJ-3-36/TODENTJ-3-36.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V3/TODENTJ-3-36/TODENTJ-3-36.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V3/TODENTJ-3-36/TODENTJ-3-36.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V3/TODENTJ-3-36/TODENTJ-3-36.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V3/TODENTJ-3-36/TODENTJ-3-36.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V3/TODENTJ-3-36/TODENTJ-3-36.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V3/TODENTJ-3-36/TODENTJ-3-36.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V3/TODENTJ-3-36/TODENTJ-3-36.xml Oper Dent Qualtrough AJ 28 86 2003 Qualtrough AJ, Mannocci F.
