Purpose: The fracture resistance of dental post systems is influenced by the material of the post. The purpose of this systematic review and meta‐analysis was to assess if there is a difference in fracture resistance between prefabricated dental titanium posts and fiber posts. Methods: An online electronic search was performed using the PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases for in vitro studies published from 2010 to 2020 in English. The retrieved eligible studies that compared the fracture resistance of titanium and fiber posts on human teeth were selected. The pooled standardized mean difference (SMD) with a 95% confidence interval was calculated. In addition, the trial sequential analysis (TSA) was performed to test if the available studies are sufficient to make conclusive evidence. Results: Of the 1165 retrieved studies, 17 studies were included in the qualitative analysis, while 16 studies were included in the quantitative analysis. Because of the high heterogeneity among studies, data from 10 studies were pooled and submitted to TSA. A total of 852 teeth were evaluated for fracture of the posts in 27 independent comparison groups. The pooled effect of the residual studies revealed no significant difference between titanium and fiber posts (SMD = –0.12; 95% CI = –0.30, 0.06; p = 0.20). Results of the TSA revealed no conclusive evidence. Conclusions: The results of the current evidence revealed no significant difference between fiber and titanium posts. The evidence is insufficient, and more standardized in vitro studies are required. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
