Summary

Observational Study

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the clinical performance and patient satisfaction of endodontically treated teeth restored with endocrown and overlay restorations using feldspathic ceramic blocks over a 2 to 4-year period. The main questions this study aims to answer are:

What are the survival rates of endocrown and overlay restorations in posterior teeth after 2 to 4 years? Are there differences in biological and mechanical failure rates between endocrown and overlay restorations? How do the cemented surface areas correlate with clinical outcomes? Participants who previously received endocrown or overlay restorations will undergo a clinical evaluation, including radiographic imaging, to assess secondary caries and restoration integrity. They will also rate their satisfaction with their restorations through a standardized survey. Retrospective STL file analysis will be used to measure cemented surface areas of the restorations.

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Radiographic Imaging and Digital STL Analysis

This study utilizes radiographic imaging (bitewing radiographs) and digital analysis of archived STL files to evaluate the clinical performance of endocrown and overlay restorations. The STL files are processed using Materialise 3-matic software to calculate cemented surface areas. Radiographic imaging assesses the presence of secondary caries or other failures. These diagnostic methods provide quantitative and visual data to evaluate long-term outcomes of the restorations.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

FDI Criteria Evaluation and Plaque Index Measurement

This intervention includes the evaluation of dental restorations using modified FDI criteria, assessed on a 5-point Likert scale that measures aesthetic, functional, and biological outcomes. Additionally, oral hygiene is assessed through the measurement of the plaque index, with a mean score calculated for each participant. The use of both FDI-based Likert scoring and plaque index measurements allows for a detailed evaluation of restoration performance and oral health status, combining subjective patient-reported outcomes with objective clinical metrics.
