Abstract

Carbon fiber posts (CFP) are widely used in the restoration of endodontically treated teeth to enhance the mechanical behavior in spite of metallic posts and to prevent vertical fractures of the tooth under chewing loads. The post is cemented inside the canal lumen using polymer resins with Young's modulus lower than Dentine. In this conditions the stress concentration is located at the post-cement interface and in the cement bulk itself, preserving radicular Dentine from dangerous stress accumulation. The mechanical resistance of CFP posts cemented in human Dentine was evaluated by the means of mechanical pull-out tests assisted by the finite element analysis. The average bond strength and the critical stress values of the CHP-cement interface were 25 MPa and 50 MPa respectively. ©2000 Kluwer Academic Publishers
