Restoration of Endodontically Treated Molars Using All Ceramic Endocrowns
Objectives: The objective of the present study was to analyze the clinical outcomes of 56 lithium disilicate endocrown in 1-year functional period.
Methods: A cross sectional study on 56 lower molars that had endodontic at the Can Tho University Hospital from 4/2020 to 8/2021. The information about age, gender, teeth anatomy after preparation, colour match, marginal adaptation, the satisfy of patients with three criteria in the baseline: color match, morphology and comfort of treatment. Restorations were performed with lithium disilicate porcelain material with CAD/CAM technique and assessed by the modified US Public Health Service criteria (USPHS). Data were processed using Stata 14.0.
Results: 56 endocrowns from 56 patients (39.3% women and 60.7% men) were evaluated. Most of tooth were complex cavity with 55,4%. After preparation, the average of the pulp chamber's diameter was 4.6 ± 0.6mm, the depth of the pulp chamber was 4.8 ± 1.2mm and the average thickness of the occlusal surface was 2.5 ± 0.7mm. Average preparation time was 11.16 ± 1.2 minutes and time to try and cementation the restoration was 15.6 16 ± 0.7 minutes with normal distribution.
After 1 year, there were 96.4% of the teeth were evaluated as successful while only 1 tooth had to be replaced and 96.4% of patients felt very satisfied with the results of treatment.
Conclusions: Endocrown was a minimally invasive and effective method to treat molars with endodontic treatment.
