Background: Resin cements are widely used for cementation of FRC posts, but their bond strength can be influenced by cement type and cementation technique. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of type of resin cement and cementation technique on the bond strength of fiber posts. Methods: Forty five extracted mandibular premolars with a minimum roo...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare the effect of an acidic environment on dislocation resistance (push-out bond strength) of EndoSequence Root Repair Material (ERRM putty and ERRM paste), a new bioceramic-based material, to that of mineral tri-oxide aggregate (MTA). MATERIALS AND METHODS One-hundred twenty root dentin slices with standardized canal spaces were divided into 6 group...

This study aimed to evaluate the influence of mesoporous silica coating surface treatments on push-out bond strength of zirconia posts. Zirconia posts (Cosmopost) were treated with vehicle (control), sandblasting plus silane application (SB+SI), a combination of sandblasting, mesoporous silica coating and silane application (SB+MSC+SI) (n=10/group). Specimens were cemented with RelyX Unicem (3M...

Introduction Dentinal canal walls are in direct contact with endodontic sealers prior to post space preparation and luting cements after post space preparation. This direct contact may affect the bond strength of intraradicular posts to root dentin. This study aimed to assess the effect of three different sealers on the bond strength of fiber posts to root dentin. Methods and Materials The ca...

INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to compare the push-out bond strength of white ProRoot Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA), Biodentine, calcium-enriched mixture (CEM) cement and Endosequence Root Repair Material (ERRM) putty after exposure to blood. METHODS AND MATERIALS A total of 96 root dentin slices with a standardized thickness of 1.00±0.05 mm and standardized canal spaces were r...

AIM To evaluate the effect of fiber post surface treatments on push-out bond strength between fiber post and root dentin. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty bovine mandibular teeth (N=60) were sectioned (16 mm), prepared (12 mm), embedded with acrylic resin and then allocated into six groups (n=10): Gr1- Silane coupling agent (Sil)+Conventional resin cement AllC em (Al C); Gr2- Sil+Conventional resi...

introduction: the aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of calcium hydroxide (ch) on push-out bond strength of white mineral trioxide aggregate (wmta) and calcium-enriched mixture (cem) cement in simulated furcation perforations. methods and materials: furcation perforations, measuring 1.3 mm in diameter and 2 mm in height, were created in 80 human mandibular first molars. the t...

OBJECTIVES To evaluate in vitro the push-out bond strengths of a glass fiber post adhesively luted with self-etching resin based and self-adhesive luting cements, as well as modified application procedure of self-adhesive luting cements in combination with single step self-etch adhesives. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty single-rooted human maxillary central incisor teeth were endodontically treat...

OBJECTIVES This in-vitro study sought to assess the push-out bond strength of a total etch and 2 self-etch bonding systems to intracanal dentin of primary anterior teeth (PAT). MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-six primary anterior teeth were randomly divided into 3 groups of 5(th) generation (Single Bond 2), 6(th) generation (Clearfil SE) and 7(th) generation (Single Bond Universal) bonding agent...

INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of smear layer removal on the push-out bond strength between radicular dentin and three calcium silicate cements (CSC) in comparison with gutta percha and sealer. METHODS Eighty human anterior extracted teeth were decoronated, cleaned and shaped to size 50/0.05 apically and randomly divided into 2 major groups: (A) smear layer pres...
