暂无{Abstract}: This study evaluated the fracture resistance of endodontically treated maxillary premolars restored with a new self-adhesive composite hybrid material (Surefil one [SO]) using different protocols. A total of 72 maxillary premolars were divided into 6 groups (n = 12). The control group included intact teeth, and the other 5 groups included teeth in which disto-occlusal cavities were prepared and endodontic treatment was performed. The prepared cavities were assigned to groups that were based on the restorative procedures: bulk-fill group, universal adhesive plus conventional bulk-fill composite resin plus a layer of conventional composite resin; SO-SC group, self-cured SO; SO-LC group, light-cured SO; SO-UA group, universal adhesive plus SO; or SO-core group, a 4.0-mm layer of SO covered by a layer of conventional composite resin. Specimens in each group underwent thermocycling and load cycling to test the fracture strength and fracture mode. The results were analyzed using analysis of variance and the Tukey test (α = 0.05). The SO-core group showed the highest mean (SD) fracture resistance, 959.9 (171.8) N, among the restored groups. The SO-core group did not differ significantly from the control group (P > 0.05) but did show significantly higher strength than all other test groups (P < 0.05) except SO-SC (P = 0.364). No significant differences were found between the bulk-fill, SO-SC, SO-LC, and SO-UA groups (P > 0.05). The SO-core group showed the highest number of unrestorable fractures, while the main fracture mode for the other groups was restorable fracture. Although the use of SO as a core material restored the fracture strength of endodontically treated premolars to the level of intact teeth, it also resulted in a higher incidence of unrestorable fractures. The SO-SC group demonstrated a high fracture resistance comparable to that of the SO-core group and had a greater tendency to experience restorable fractures.
