Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of present study was to investigate fracture strength and mode of failure of endodontically treated teeth restored with metal cast post-core system, prefabricated fiber post system, and newly introduced polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) post-core system. Materials and methods: A total of 21 mandibular premolar were randomly grouped into 3 groups of 7 each according to the post material. Group A was for metal cast post core; Group B for prefabricated glass fiber post and resin core; and Group C for milled PEKK post cores. All specimens were restored with metal crown. The fracture strength of each specimen was measured by applying a static load of 135-degree to the tooth at 2 mm/min crosshead speed using a universal testing machine. After the fracture strength measurement, the mode of failure was observed. The results were analyzed using Kruscal-Wallis test and post hoc Mann-Whitney U test at confidence interval ${\alpha}=.05$. Results: Fracture resistance of PEKK post core was lower than those of cast metal post and fiber reinforced post with composite resin core. In the aspect of fracture mode most of the root fracture occurred in the metal post core, whereas the post detachment occurred mainly in the fiber reinforced post. In the case of PEKK post core, teeth and post were fractured together. Conclusion: It is necessary to select appropriate materials of post for extensively damaged teeth restoration and clinical application of the PEKK post seems to require more research on improvement of strength.

목적: 본 연구의 목적은 주조 금속 포스트, 기성 섬유강화형 포스트 그리고 치과영역에서 새롭게 주목 받고 있는 재료인 polyetherketoneketone(PEKK)으로 제작한 포스트로 수복된 근관 치료 치아의 파절 강도 및 파절 양상에 대해 조사하는 것이다. 재료 및 방법: 총 21개의 하악 소구치를 포스트 재료에 따라 각각 7개씩 3개의 군으로 무작위로 분류하였다. 그룹 A는 주조 금속 포스트 코어; 그룹 B는 기성 섬유강화형 포스트 및 레진 코어; 그룹 C는 밀링된 PEKK 포스트 코어로 수복하였다. 모든 시편은 금속관으로 수복하였다. 각각의 시편들을 제작 후 만능 시험기를 사용하여 2 mm/min 속도로 치아 장축에 대해 135도의 정적 하중을 가하여 파절 강도를 측정하고, 파절 양상에 대해 조사하였다. 결과 분석은 유의수준 ${\alpha}=.05$에서 Kruskal-Wallis test 후 사후검정으로 Mann-Whitney U test를 시행하였다. 결과: PEKK 포스트 파절 강도는 주조 금속 포스트와 기성 섬유강화형 포스트에 비해 낮은 값을 보였다. 파절양상에 있어서는 육안과 현미경, 방사선 사진을 통해 살펴본 결과 금속 포스트 코어에서는 치근파절의 양상이 대부분 나타난 반면 기성 섬유 강화형포스트는 포스트의 탈락이 주로 발생하였다. PEKK 포스트 코어의 경우 치아와 포스트가 함께 파절되는 양상이 주로 나타났다. 결론: 치관부 치질이 심하게 손상된 치아 수복 시 적절한 재료의 선택이 필요하며, PEKK 포스트의 임상적 적용을 위해서는 강도 향상에 대한 연구가 더 필요할 것으로 보인다.
