This study evaluated the load bearing capacity of minimal invasive restoration alternatives on severely worn teeth after cyclic loading. Sound human maxillary incisors (N=72, n=9 per group) were randomly divided into nine experimental groups to receive one of the following restoration types: Group 1: Intact tooth, Group 2: Direct resin composite, Group 3: Lingual: Indirect resin composite, Labial: Ceramic veneer with lingual overlap, Group 4: Lingual: Indirect resin composite with lingual overlap, Labial: Ceramic, Group 5: Lingual: Direct composite, Labial: Ceramic, Group 6: Lingual: Feldspathic Ceramic, Labial: Feldspathic ceramic, Group 7: Lithium disilicate crown, Group 8: Metal-ceramic crown. Teeth were prepared simulating erosion/wear conditions. Specimens were subjected to cyclic loading (1,200,000 cycles, 5-55 degrees C) and then loaded to failure from the lingual surface at 105 degrees inclination (1mm/min). Data (Newton) were analyzed using one-way ANOVA, Tukey`s tests and Weibull moduli were calculated (=0.05). Significant differences were observed between the groups for the initial (p=0.006) and maximum fracture load (p=0.002). Group 3 (55 +/- 36) presented significantly lower initial fracture load compared to other groups (79 +/- 35-134 +/- 36) (p<0.05). When maximum fracture load is considered, control group (1) (602 +/- 355) and from restored groups 2 (449 +/- 144) and 4 (495 +/- 291) showed significantly higher results (p<0.05). Weibull modulus for the maximum fracture load was the highest for Group 2 (m=3.47) among all groups (m=1.61-4.18). Groups 2, 3, 6 presented the highest incidence of repairable failures. Based on the results, severely worn teeth could be restored with lingual direct resin composite and labial veneering with indirect resin with overlap.
