Abstract
Objectives: To conduct a systematic review and network meta-analysis (NMA) to answer whether endocrown restorations have similar mechanical behavior than other traditional core-crown systems with or without intracanal posts for the rehabilitation of anterior endodontically treated teeth.
Methods: The review followed the PRISMA Extension Statement for NMA. Studies were identified by a systematic search to select reports on endocrown restorations in anterior teeth. A search was performed in PubMed (MEDLINE), Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, SciELO, and LILACS databases. Articles evaluating mechanical performance through in vitro and finite element analysis (FEA) studies were selected and the risk of bias was assessed using the RoBDEMAT and ROBFEAD tools, respectively. The data were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively through NMA using the MetaInsight tool.
Results: Eleven articles were included (eight in vitro and three with FEA design). Six in vitro studies were evaluated using NMA. Composite resin endocrowns showed greater load-to-fracture and lower occurrence of catastrophic failures than traditional restorations. Combining glass fiber post with composite restoration also showed good strength behavior. Regarding FEA studies, two out of three studies showed a more homogeneous distribution of stress for the endocrown group.
Significance: Endocrowns performed similarly to or better than conventional restorative strategies, with composite resin being the most recommended material of choice. The rehabilitation of endodontically treated anterior teeth with extensive coronal destruction is typically challenging for the dentist, and there is still no consensus in the literature that provides conclusive answers for choosing the appropriate material and restorative strategy. Exploring new techniques and materials that make this procedure easier for the dentist and guarantee good results is paramount.
期刊介绍：
Dental Materials publishes original research, review articles, and short communications.
Academy of Dental Materials members click here to register for free access to Dental Materials online.
The principal aim of Dental Materials is to promote rapid communication of scientific information between academia, industry, and the dental practitioner. Original Manuscripts on clinical and laboratory research of basic and applied character which focus on the properties or performance of dental materials or the reaction of host tissues to materials are given priority publication. Other acceptable topics include application technology in clinical dentistry and dental laboratory technology.
Comprehensive reviews and editorial commentaries on pertinent subjects will be considered.
