Abstract

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of short fiber reinforced composite on the fracture strength of anterior immature teeth treated with regenerative endodontic procedures. A total of 120 permanent maxillary central incisors were selected, and root lengths were standardized. Except for the positive control group (n = 20), the root canals were instrumented to simulate immature teeth with incomplete root development, and the regenerative endodontic procedure was performed. Twenty instrumented teeth acted as negative controls (n = 20), and the remaining 80 teeth were randomly divided into 4 groups according to the chosen coronal restoration material: bulk fill, short fiber reinforced composite (SFRC), polyethylene fiber (Ribbond Ultra), and flowable composite resin. Each specimen was then subjected to fracture testing using a universal testing machine (AGS-X, Shimadzu, Japan). The load to fracture was recorded. Data were subjected to statistical analysis using analysis of variance and the Tukey Honestly Significant Difference test. A significant difference was detected between the groups (p < 0.05), with the positive control group showing the highest mean fracture strength. The SFRC group had significantly higher values than the bulk fill, polyethylene fiber, flowable composite resin and negative control groups. In conclusion, SFRC has a relatively high fracture strength compared to other materials used in regenerative endodontic procedures. The use of SFRC enhanced the fracture strength of immature permanent teeth.
