introduction : this in vitro study was designed to evaluate the effect of smear layer removal on push-out bond strength of white mineral trioxide aggregate (wmta) and calcium-enriched mixture cement (cem). materials and methods: dentin discs with 3 mm thicknesses were divided into 4 groups ( n =15): group 1: irrigation of the canal with normal saline and filling with wmta; group 2: irrigation w...

objectives: the main disadvantage of fiber posts is their low bond strength to root canal wall. the aim of the present study was to assess the effect of different root canal post space treatments on push-out bond strength of fiber posts to root dentin. materials and methods: after post space preparation in 40 endodontically treated human premolars, the teeth were randomly divided into four expe...

background: the aim of this study was to compare push-out bond strength of a new bioceramic endodontic sealer, endosequence bc sealer (brasseler usa, savannah, ga), used with gutta-percha in the presence or absence of phosphate-buffered saline solution (pbs) within the root canals. materials and methods: forty single-rooted human teeth were prepared and randomly divided into four groups. sample...

objectives: this in-vitro study aimed to compare the push-out bond strength of composite to prepared and unprepared intracanal dentin using a 5th generation bonding agent in primary anterior teeth after etching for seven and 15 seconds. materials and methods: sixty primary anterior teeth were randomly divided into four groups. in groups one and two, intracanal dentin remained intact while in gr...

this study compared the push-out bond strength of endosequence root repair material (errm) and bioaggregate (ba), new bioceramic materials, to that of mineral trioxide aggregate (mta) after incubation in phosphate-buffered saline (pbs), a synthetic tissue fluid, for either 1 week or 2 months.one-hundred and twenty root sections were filled with proroot mta, ba, or errm. each tested material was...

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...

introduction: debonding is a common cause of failure encountered with fiber-reinforced composite (frc) posts, and usually occurs along the post space-dentin adhesive interface. the aim of this in vitro study is to evaluate the regional push-out bond strength of a fiber-reinforced post system, using two resin cements. materials and methods: in this in vitro study 20 maxillary central incisors we...

background and aims. various factors influence the interfacial bond between the fiber posts and root canal dentin. the aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of pre-warming of resin cement on the push-out bond strength of fiber posts to various segments of root canal dentin. materials and methods. in this in vitro study, 40 single-rooted human premolars were decoronated and underwe...

background: a few studies have investigated the effect of the activation mode of adhesive systems on bond strength of fi ber posts to root canal dentin. this study investigated the push-out bond strengths of a glass fi ber post to different root canal regions with the use of two adhesives with light- and dual-cure polymerization modes. materials and methods: in this in vitro study, 40 maxillary...

background: the purpose of this study was to compare the push-out bond strength of mineral trioxide aggregate (mta) and calcium enriched mixture (cem) as root end fi lling materials. materials and methods: a total of 40 root dentin slices (1 ± 0.2 mm) were prepared from freshly extracted human maxillary central teeth and their lumens were enlarged to 1.3 mm. the slices were randomly divided int...
