Popis: Abstract Minimally invasive access cavities have been proposed in the last decade to reduce tooth tissue loss during endodontic treatment and mitigate compromised fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth. Fracture resistance of molars with different types of access cavity design may be affected by restorative materials and aging. Insufficient literature data exist on the effect of cavity design and type of restorative materials on restorative aspects such as material adaptation or photo-polymerization in restricted access cavities. This study analyses quality of polymerization, material adaptation and fracture resistance of molars with different types of access cavities restored with glass-ionomer, high-viscosity fiber-reinforced bulk-fill and nanofilled resin composite. Plastic molar teeth with truss (TREC) and traditional endodontic access cavity (TEC) were restored with nanofilled composite (Filtek Supreme), glass-ionomer Fuji IX and Filtek or fiber-reinforced everX Posterior and Filtek. Porosity was determined using microcomputer tomography and the degree of conversion of resin-based materals using micro-Raman spectroscopy. Human molars prepared and restored in the same way were used for fracture resistance testing at baseline and after thermocycling. The results demonstrate that high-viscosity fiber-reinforced composite was difficult to adapt in TREC cavity leading to greater porosity than Filtek or Fuji. TREC design did not affect composite polymerization and led to higher fracture resistance of restored molars compared to TEC but also more unrestorable fractures.
