Abstract
• Restoration extension did not significantly influence the failure load of glass-ceramic endocrowns after cyclic loading. • The type of outline did not significantly influence the failure load of glass-ceramic endocrowns after cyclic loading. • There was no significant difference between the control and treatment groups concerning mode of failure.
