Abstract

Stresses induced by the inuence of variations in the dimensions of three dierent parameters of MOD cavity
preparations were studied using the nite element technique. The parameters studied were the depth,
isthmus width, and the thickness of the remaining interaxial dentin. A total of eight dierent cavity designs,
divided into three groups, were compared with the normal (unprepared) tooth and other cavity designs in the
same group. Enamel and dentin experienced large regional variations in compressive stresses even in normal
teeth. Teeth with prepared cavities showed even more variation, and stress combinations became critical from
a tooth fracture point of view. It was seen that narrow but deep cavity preparations and wide and equally deep
cavity preparations experienced a similar, damaging combination of stresses. It was deduced from the stress
patterns observed in this study that the depth of the cavity preparations is the most critical factor in fracture of
the tooth or cusps, whereas the width of the isthmus alone is the least critical.
