RESUMO

The aim was to evaluate the influence of variations in the radicular ferrule format given by the casing core on stress developed in the root in a three-dimensional model of one upper second premolar submitted to four load conditions: wedge, vestibular lever, proximal lever and torsion. Six models were built according the average dimensions obtained from the literature. One of them represented the sound tooth, and other five restored teeth with cast radicular retainer and crown: one simulated simple core, without ferrule (E2A0), and in four models the mirror (E) size was varied in 1/3 of the radicular wall thickness (E1) or 2/3 (E2) and the ferrule height (A) was equivalent to E1 (A1) or E2 (A2); or be: E1A1 and E2A2 had 45º inclination of the ferrule bisel. All the structures were considered homogeneous, isotropic and linear elastic behavior. The results allow to affirm that the ferrule doesnt seem necessary to improve the stress distribution and that, except for the longitudinal load case (that demonstrated to be the least harmful), the cement was submitted to stress that justify his fracture and the dentine presented compatible tensile stress with longitudinal fractures (with beginning in the bone crest), especially for the vestibular lever.
