The root canals were then instrumented to #25,7% using nickel-titanium files and were filled with gutta-percha and AH26 sealer with lateral compaction technique. Access cavity was restored with Gradia composite. All teeth were then thermocycled for 480 cycles between 5°Cand 55°C for 30 seconds and their fracture strength was measured in a universal testing machine with a round-end piston with 6 mm diameter at a speed of 1 mm/min. Data were analyzed using two-way and one-way ANOVA.Results: Without thermocycling, the fracture strength of endodontically treated teeth with TREC designs had no significant difference with the control group (P> 0.05). However, both TEC and TREC designs significantly decreased the fracture strength of endodontically treated teeth after thermocycling (P< 0.05), such that minimum fracture strength was noted in TEC-TC group.Conclusion: Under the conditions of this ex vivo study, TREC enhances the fracture strength of endodontically treated teeth under thermal stresses.Keywords: endodontic cavity, fracture strength, minimally invasive intervention
