A recent study published in Clinical Oral Investigations by Lena Bal, Cangül Keskin, Aybüke Karaca Sakallı, Bilge Özcan, and İsen Güleç Koçyiğit investigated the effect of different reinforcement materials on the fracture resistance of mesio-occluso-distal (MOD) cavity restorations in endodontically treated teeth. The researchers aimed to determine how applying fiber-reinforced composites to the cervical and coronal segments of teeth could impact their durability. This study is particularly relevant because vertical fractures in MOD restorations are among the most common failures observed in endodontically treated teeth, and improving restoration strength is essential for long-term success and preservation of dental function.
