Stress Analysis on Mesiolingual Cavity of Endodontically Treated Molar Restored Using Bidirectional Fiber-Reinforced Composite (Wallpapering Technique).

The stress distribution of fiber-reinforced composite on the buccolingual cavity of ETT using the finite element method did not show structural failure in the polyethylene group because the maximum and minimum principal stresses were lower than the strength of the material. Interfacial bond failure occurs at the enamel portion. The maximum and minimum principal values of e-glass indicate structural failure in the circumferential fiber and the base fiber because the stress exceeds the strength of the material. Interfacial bond failure occurred on the circumferential and the cavity floor.
