Popis: This study aimed to evaluate the fracture resistance of endodontically treated molars restored with ceramic indirect restorations with and without cervical margin relocation. A total of 120 extracted human maxillary molars were used after MOD cavities preparations with the mesial boxes located 2 mm below CEJ. Specimens were randomly assigned to six groups according to the margin location of each indirect restoration type (n = 20); crown without CMR, crown with CMR, endocrown without CMR, endocrown with CMR, onlay without CMR, and onlay with CMR. Mesial proximal boxes of the MOD cavities were elevated with composite resin in cervical margin relocation groups. Each group was further divided according to indirect restoration material (n = 10); CEREC Tessera and Celtra Press. The specimens were subjected to fracture resistance testing in a universal testing machine. Fracture analysis was performed using stereo and scanning electron microscopes. Data were analyzed by using 3-way ANOVA, 1-way ANOVA and the Tukey HSD tests (α = 0.05). The mean fracture resistance values ranged between 2136.57 and 950.47 N. Significantly higher values were detected among Celtra Press than Cerec Tessera in crown restorations. Unrestorable fracture patterns were seen through all study groups. Crown restorations represented the best restorative option in terms of fracture resistance. Cervical margin relocation adversely affected fracture resistance. However, the material of the indirect restorations had no significant impact on fracture resistance.
