“…Most studies that evaluated metal and fiber posts 21,22,23,27 found similar survival rates for both types of retainers, except for Schmitter et al 4 that found higher survival for glass fiber posts and King et al, 24 that found higher survival for metal posts. Interestingly, these studies show a longer follow-up period than Gbadebo et al, 21 Sarkis-Onofre et al, 22 Sterzenbach et al, 23 and Cloet et al 27 It is probable that a longer evaluation period would be needed to detect possible differences in the latter studies.…”

“…Gbadebo et al 21 evaluated the performance of prefabricated glass fiber posts and prefabricated stainless steel posts on endodontically-treated teeth that received metal-ceramic crowns. Six months after posts were placed, the survival rate of glass fiber posts (n = 18) was 100% and of stainless steel posts was 97.5% (n = 16); the groups showed no statistical difference.…”

The aim of this systematic review was to compare the clinical performance and failure modes of teeth restored with intra-radicular retainers. A search was performed on PubMed/Medline, Central and ClinicalTrials databases for randomized clinical trials comparing clinical behavior and failures of at least two types of retainers. From 341 detected papers, 16 were selected for full-text analysis, of which 9 met the eligibility criteria. A manual search added 2 more studies, totalizing 11 studies that were included in this review. Evaluated retainers were fiber (prefabricated and customized) and metal (prefabricated and cast) posts, and follow-up ranged from 6 months to 10 years. Most studies showed good clinical behavior for evaluated intra-radicular retainers. Reported survival rates varied from 71 to 100% for fiber posts and 50 to 97.1% for metal posts. Studies found no difference in the survival among different metal posts and most studies found no difference between fiber and metal posts. Two studies also showed that remaining dentine height, number of walls and ferrule increased the longevity of the restored teeth. Failures of fiber posts were mainly due to post loss of retention, while metal post failures were mostly related to root fracture, post fracture and crown and/or post loss of retention. In conclusion, metal and fiber posts present similar clinical behavior at short to medium term follow-up. Remaining dental structure and ferrule increase the survival of restored pulpless teeth. Studies with longer follow-up are needed.

“…Previous clinical and in vitro studies showed that the incidence of post debonding, could be reduced with good post fitting, which is a key factor for the clinical success of restorations 13,14 . Therefore, the routine use of anatomic fiber posts was recommended when the prepared root canal is too wide or not perfectly round.…”

Abstract:Objective: This study evaluated the influence of fiber composition, diameter and post-curing treatments performed at relining on flexural strength and modulus of fiber-posts. Materials and methods: Sixty posts of Reforpost® Glass Fiber [GF]) and Reforpost® Carbon Fiber [CF] (Angelus, Londrina, PR, Brazil) with diameters of 1.0mm and 1.4mm were used. Each group was further subdivided into three subgroups (n=5) according to treatment received: dry-stored control group (C), oven-cured (Ov) or autoclaved (Ac). A universal testing machine measured flexural strength and modulus of all specimens. Results: Post composition and post-curing treatments had no significant effects on flexural properties of specimens while post diameter had significant effects (p<0.05). The highest flexural strength and modulus (MPa) (1331±95.8 and 21532±1550, respectively) were obtained with Ov/GF/1.1, while lowest values (890±79.4 and 10675±952, respectively) were for Ac/GF/1.5. Conclusions: 1.1mm diameter posts had better mechanical properties than 1.5mm thick posts. Neither post composition nor post-curing procedures affected the mechanical properties of relined posts.

“…Excessive preparation of the root canal may reduce the strength of the root dentin walls, which significantly decreases their fracture resistance [7]. When the coronal tooth structure has been reduced to less than half, posts are needed to restore the strength [8].…”

Abstract.To investigate the stress distribution in a maxillary canine restored with each of four different post systems at different levels of alveolar bone loss. Two-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA) was performed by modeling a severely damaged canine with four different post systems: CAD/CAM zirconia, CAD/CAM glass fiber, cast titanium, and cast gold. A force of 100 N was applied to the crown, and the von Mises stresses were obtained. FEA revealed that the CAD/CAM zirconia post system produced the lowest maximum von Mises stress in the dentin layer at 115.8 MPa, while the CAD/CAM glass fiber post produced the highest stress in the dentin at 518.2 MPa. For a severely damaged anterior tooth, a zirconia post system is the best choice while a cast gold post ranks second. The CAD/CAM glass fiber post is least recommended in terms of stress level in the dentin.
