Abstract

The lifespan of an endodontically involved tooth has been greatly influenced by continued emergence of different modalities in endodontic treatment and the restorative procedures.In the last few years, various prefabricated posts systems have emerged. The selection of a suitable post design and type is important, as it may have an influence on the survival of the tooth. Teeth have characteristic morphology and have many anatomical variations, which may adversely affect the selection and placement of a post. This study aims to assess the correlation between the amount of remaining tooth structure and tooth morphology during post selection.

A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted using the patient records from the Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics from June 2019-April 2020. The patients were assessed based on the type of post used, the remaining tooth structure and type of tooth/tooth morphology. Data was collected and then subjected to statistical analysis. A total of 714 patients, it was observed that 60 patients underwent post endodontic treatment with custom made posts, 334 patients with Prefabricated Fiber reinforced posts and 320 patients with Prefabricated Metal posts. 24.4% of the cases had a remaining tooth structure between 1-2mm, 66.1% cases between 2-4mm and 9.1% of the cases had a between 4-6 mm. It was noticed that 40 year old patients mostly underwent post endodontic treatment and usually upper right maxillary central incisors were subjected to post endodontic restorative therapy. On statistical evaluation it was noticed that there was a positive correlation between remaining tooth structure and type of post used with a statistically significant result, p<0.05.

For restored endodontically treated teeth that do not have complete circumferential tooth structure between the core and preparation finish line, the location of the remaining coronal tooth structure may affect their fracture resistance.Therefore it is of paramount importance that the analysis between types of post to be selected depending on the amount of tooth structure should be further studied so as to provide clarity to dentists during treatment planning of post endodontic restorations.

Introduction

Restoration of endodontically treated teeth is an important aspect of dental practice that involves a range of treatment options of variable complexity [28]. The challenge may be complicated by substantial loss of coronal tooth structure and the ability to predict restorative success [21]. The likelihood of survival of a pulpless tooth is directly related to the quantity and quality of the remaining dental tissue. A post is usually placed in an attempt to strengthen the tooth. However, in vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated that a post does not reinforce endodontically treated teeth. Posts are required for supporting a core foundation when there is insufficient clinical crown remaining [10, 13]. Nowadays, cast post-core restorations are the option of choice for endodontically treated teeth but this kind of restoration, according to many authors, makes teeth fragile and more susceptible to fracture. Prefabricated post systems have recently become increasingly popular because they can provide satisfactory results [5].

According to Cohen, et al.the association of prefabricated intraradicular posts, light-, chemical- and dual-cured resins, and dentin primers used for core build-up allows higher core preservation as well as adequate resistance.The use of prefabricated posts has brought special attention to core materials. This core build-up was designed to be made of composite, yet more specific materials have been developed [6]. It has been shown that composites have adequate resistance to compressive strength and fracture. With recent improvements in the bonding of composite resins to dentin, true internal support is now available. In 1998, Zalkind and Hochman recommended the use of composite as core material only when adequate coronal dentin structure is available [35].

There are various features that play an important role in selection of type of post to be used in post endodontic therapy such as, The length and shape of the remaining root determines the length of the post [8]. It has been suggested that root length should be considered for the selection of the ideal post length. It has been demonstrated that the greater the post length, the better the retention and stress distribution [2]. However, it may not always be possible to use a long post, especially when the remaining root is short or curved. Each tooth in the arch exhibits anatomic characteristics such as root curvature, mesio-distal width, and labio-lingual dimension. Hence, root anatomy dictates post selection [3]. Each tooth is anatomically different from the other and the same type of tooth may have certain variations, which may adversely affect the post placement. The amount of remaining coronal tooth structure is also a critical factor in determining the post selection [19].

Endodontically treated teeth often lack coronal tooth structure as a result of caries, previous restorations, trauma, or endodontic procedures [17]. In these situations, successful restoration of an endodontically treated tooth may be a challenging procedure. This study aims to analyse the correlation between the remaining tooth structure and the post used so as to aid in the appropriate selection of posts during post endodontic therapy and thereby aid in efficient treatment planning.


Materials And Methods

Study design and setting

This institution based retrospective study examined the records of patients from June 2019-April 2020 undergoing treatment at our hospital. The approval from the institutional ethics committee was obtained. The sample population included patients who underwent post endodontic restorative therapy at the Outpatient ward of our hospital by means of non-probability sampling. Patients who were systemically healthy and were included in the study, those with mental and physical disabilities were excluded from the study.

Data collection

Data was obtained from exclusive patient management records which was used to identify 714 patients in the hospital database who underwent post endodontic replacement therapy using different types of posts, namely Custom made posts, Prefabricated FRC post and Prefabricated Metal posts. Data relevant to the study such as Patients unique ID, Name, Age, Sex, Tooth Number and Remaining Tooth Structure was recorded. Repeated patient records and incomplete records were excluded. Data was verified by an external reviewer.

Statistical analysis

Data was recorded in Microsoft Excel 2016 (Microsoft Office 10) and later exported to the SPSS software for Windows (Version 20.0, SPSS Inc, IBM, Chicago Ill., USA) and subjected to statistical analysis. Chi square test was employed with significance level set at p<0.005.


Results And Discussion

In the present study, the final data comprised of 714 patients in total of Indian origin who underwent post endodontic restorative therapy, out of which, it was observed that 60 patients underwent post endodontic treatment with custom made posts, 334 patients underwent post endodontic treatment with Prefabricated Fiber reinforced posts and 320 patients underwent post endodontic treatment with Prefabricated Metal posts. (Table 1,Graph 1)

This table indicates that 60 patients underwent post endodontic treatment with custom made posts, 334 patients underwent post endodontic treatment with Prefabricated Fiber reinforced posts and 320 patients underwent post endodontic treatment with Prefabricated Metal posts. On analysing the remaining tooth structure prevalence it was noticed that, 24.4% of the cases had a remaining tooth structure between 1-2mm, 66.1% cases had a remaining tooth structure between 2-4mm and 9.1% of the cases had a remaining tooth structure between 4-6 mm (Table 2, Graph 2).

This table indicates that out of 714 patients, 24.4% of the cases had a remaining tooth structure between 1-2mm, 66.1% cases had a remaining tooth structure between 2-4mm and 9.1% of the cases had a remaining tooth structure between 4-6 mm. It was also noticed that 40 year old patients mostly underwent post endodontic treatment and usually upper right maxillary central incisors (11) were subjected to post endodontic restorative therapy. (Graph 3, Graph 4)

In the present study, it was noted upon running Chi square tests of the correlation between the type of post used and tooth number that, there was positive correlation, the results were statistically significant p<0.05, (p=0.00), thereby suggesting that type of tooth or tooth morphology played a predominant role in post selection. It was observed that Prefabricated FRC posts were preferred in cases of maxillary anterior teeth, followed by custom made posts. It was also observed that Prefabricated Metal posts were preferred in case of mandibular anteriors and posterior teeth.(Table 3, Graph 5)

Chi square test were done to correlate between the type of post used and the remaining tooth structure, it was observed that teeth with remaining tooth structure of 2-4mm usually were treated with prefabricated FRC or Metal posts and those with 1-2mm of remaining tooth structure were subjected to therapy using Prefabricated FRC posts, the results were statistically significant p=0.043 (Table 4, Graph 6)

On observing the above results, it was noticed that thorough planning and understanding of tooth morphology and the remaining tooth structure forms the foundation for post endodontic therapy, and therefore, thorough knowledge regarding the indications and properties of different posts is of paramount importance.

Post and cores contribute in providing efficient restorative options for priorlyendodontically treated teeth. After reviewing various literature, it is observed that an ideal post system should have the following features:

(a) physical properties similar to that of the tooth's dentin,
(b) maximum retention with minimal dentin removal,
(c) distribution of various stresses evenly along the surface of the tooth and the root,
(d) esthetic compliance with the final restoration and the tissue surrounding it
(e) during placement and cementation, minimal stress should be dissipated ,
(f) inability of the restoration to be displaced,
(g) proper retention of the core,
(h) easily retrievable if need be,
(i) material should be compatible with core,
(j) ease of use, safety and reliability, and
(k) reasonable cost.

Therefore, the clinician should be knowledgeable in selecting the right type of post and core systems to meet the biological, mechanical, and esthetic needs for each individual tooth [7].

One major cause of failure of the post endodontically restored tooth is usually root fracture.Therefore, it is of an advantage if tooth preparation and post designs minimize the chance of root fracture. A ferrule is a metal ring or cap intended for strengthening.A dental ferrule is an encircling band of cast metal around the coronal surface of the tooth. It has been noted that the use of a ferrule as a unit of the core or an artificial crown may be of vital importance in root canal filled teeth. The ‘ferrule effect’ occurs dueto the ferrule resisting various stresses such as functional lever forces, the wedging effect of tapered posts and the lateral forces exerted during the post insertion, the ferrule acts as a protective unit and is often referred to as the ferrule effect.

The restoration of endodontically treated teeth involves different materials and principles.Conservative preparations restricted to only endodontic access preparation can be restored using amalgam or composites associated with bonding agents to avoid microleakage. However, some posterior teeth whose greater amount of structure was missed need cuspal protection to direct forces at the long axis of the root, avoiding longitudinal fractures while anterior teeth often require post because of oblique forces.Even though posts are indicated to retain a core when coronal structure is missed, some authors have advocated the use of posts associated with composites as an alternative to crowns in posterior teeth [16].

Nevertheless, it is necessary to consider that there are metallic, ceramic and fiber posts, prefabricated or customized. Fiber posts have been indicated in situations where there is loss of root structure because its moduli of elasticity is close to dentin, but some coronal remaining structure is necessary to retain the core using adhesive systems. Different from these posts, metal cast posts have been used when greater quantities of coronal structure is missed and functional demand is higher such as support teeth of removable or fixed partial prostheses [31].

On observing, previously conducted invivo studies [11, 14, 18, 22-25, 29] and in vitro studies [12, 13, 15, 20, 26, 27, 34], regarding the conservative and endodontic considerations pertaining to post endodontic restorative therapy over the past few years, we have now focused on the epidemiology and prevalence pattern so as to analyze the current scenario and further elaborate on the possibility of the present diagnostic and treatment modalities to ultimately aid in efficient treatment planning.

In this study it was noticed that Prefabricated Fibre Post and Core systems were preferred in comparison to other post endodontic systems and predominantly maxillary central incisors [11] were subjected to treatment with a remaining tooth structure of 2-4mm. This was further cross referenced with other epidemiological studies to further understand the relevance of the present study.

In a study by Spear et.al, he states that, to ensure functional longevity, endodontically treated teeth must have at least 5 mm of tooth structure coronal to the crestal bone. Three millimeters are needed to maintain a healthy soft tissue complex, and 2 mm of coronal tooth structure incisal to the preparation finish line are necessary to ensure structural integrity [32].

An in vitro study by Al Wahadani et.al, he compares the fracture resistance of adhesively cemented titanium, prefabricated, glass fiber, and carbon fiber posts on teeth with 2 mm of remaining tooth structure favored titanium posts. However, the teeth were not restored with crowns, negating the ferrule effect [1].

Another study by Gu et.al, compared metallic with nonmetallic posts cemented with adhesive or nonadhesive cements on teeth with 2 mm of remaining tooth structure. The authors concluded that fiber posts showed greater fracture resistance than cast posts and cores and that the use of resin cement did not improve the performance of metallic posts. This is in synchrony to the present study which reveals that Prefabricated Fiber reinforced posts are preferred in teeth with remaining tooth structure of 2-4mm [9]. In a study by Sidoli et.al, [30] it was observed that the bulk of the tooth above the restorative margin should be at least 1.5 to 2 mm to achieve resistance form [30]. This was synonymous with this study where it was noted that 61.1% of the patients who were chosen for post endodontic restorative therapy had a remaining tooth structure of 2-4mm.

It was also found by Bergman et.al, that teeth restored with carbon fiber posts had inferior strength compared with those restored with metal posts when subjected to forces simulating those in a clinical setting.The use of cast post and cores in restoring endodontically treated teeth with moderate to severe coronal tooth loss [4]. This may be the reason attributing to Prefabricated Metal posts being a close competitor to Prefabricated FRC posts as a gold standard treatment of choice.

It was also observed in a study by Standlee st.al, [33] that nonmetal posts, such as a carbon fiber post system, can be used when ample coronal dentin remains and the crown supported by the remaining tooth structure; or, cast post and core is preferred in cases when there is minimal tooth structure or excessive tooth loss [33]. Although the present study varies from this school of thought, this may explain the reason for Prefabricated metal posts in posterior teeth in comparison to FRC posts, which thereby sheds light on the need for further exploration.

Endodontically treated teeth are more brittle due to loss of structural integrity associated with access preparation or caries. Because of the brittleness of these elements, planning will be associated with the remaining tooth structure and functional demands, once load received depends on tooth position in the arch, occlusion and rehabilitation planning. With the vast development and availability of different materials and post designs present for the restoration of teeth that have priorly undergone endodontic therapy, the operator must be selective in choosing the post system that is most suitable for the individual needs of each tooth. For restored endodontically treated teeth that do not have complete circumferential tooth structure between the core and preparation finish line, the location of the remaining coronal tooth structure may affect their fracture resistance.

Therefore it is of paramount importance that the analysis between types of post to be selected depending on the amount of tooth structure should be further studied so as to provide clarity to dentists during treatment planning of post endodontic restorations.

Conclusion

From the present study, it was observed that most patients underwent post endodontic treatment with Prefabricated Fiber reinforced posts followed by treatment with Prefabricated Metal posts. It was also noticed that the remaining tooth structure was between 2-4mm. It is concluded that restored endodontically treated teeth that do not have complete circumferential tooth structure between the core and preparation finish line, the location of the remaining coronal tooth structure may affect their fracture resistance and overall quality of post endodontic restoration. Further studies pertaining to the correlation between remaining tooth structure, tooth morphology and post selection will aid in efficient treatment planning.
