The Biomechanical Behaviour And Life Span Of A Three-Rooted Maxillary First Premolar With Different Access Cavity Designs: A Finite Element Analysis, Shehabeldin Mohamed Saber Prof.Dr., Nawar Nawar

Dentistry

Objective: The present study aimed to evaluate the influence of different access cavity designs on the biomechanical behaviour of a three-rooted maxillary first premolar using finite element analysis (FEA).

Methods: Three experimental FEA models were generated: the intact tooth (IT) model, the traditional access cavity (TAC) model, and the conservative access cavity (CAC) model. In both TAC and CAC models, root canals preparation was simulated as follows: the mesiobuccal and distobuccal canals with a final tip size of 30 and taper of 0.04 and the palatal canal with a final tip size of 35 and taper of 0.04. Cyclic loading …

Aim: This study evaluated the influence of different access designs on maxillary two-rooted premolar teeth to assess their biomechanical behavior using finite element analysis. Methodology: Three simulated FEA models were accessed with three main different access cavity designs: the intact tooth (IT) model, the traditional access cavity (TAC), and the conservative access cavity (CAC). Two different radicular preparations were done for each simulated model. The buccal and palatal canals were prepared to the apical sizes #30/.04, and #40/.04. A cyclic load of 50 N was applied on the occlusal surface. The patterns of stress distribution, the maximum von Mises (VM), …
