J Dent 2024; 147:105106. [PMID: 38830530 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2024.105106] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2024] [Revised: 05/28/2024] [Accepted: 05/31/2024] [Indexed: 06/05/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the influence of ferrule and core type on the fracture strength of endodontically treated anterior teeth (ETAT) and identify the failure mode type and distribution across different core types and ferrule conditions. METHODS Sixty extracted human central incisors were endodontically treated, decoronated and divided into two main groups (F=with ferrule, NF=no ferrule). Each main group was further subdivided into three subgroups according to the core material used: direct composite cores (DC), Ribbond fibre-reinforced composite cores (RIB-DC), and glass fibre post (GFP) with direct composite cores (GFP-DC). All specimens received E.max crowns and underwent thermal cycling and cyclic loading. Subsequently, the fracture resistance was tested with static loads applied to the crown restoration. Two-Way ANOVA and Chi square tests identified significant differences among the groups (p < 0.05). RESULTS The means and standard deviations (SD) of fracture loads in Newtons (N) for specimens in the F subgroups were RIB-DC: 465.0 (104.20), GFP-DC: 367.6 (79.59), DC: 275.8 (68.48), and in NF subgroups were RIB-DC: 110.8 (24.33), GFP-DC: 95.6 (25.47), DC: 67.4 (7.46). Specimens with ferrule yielded significantly higher fracture loads than those without ferrule (p = 0.0054). In the F groups, fracture loads of specimens with RIB-DC cores were significantly higher than those with GFP-DC (p = 0.0019) and those with DC (p = 0.0001). Moreover, fracture loads for the GFP-DC were significantly higher than those for the DC (p = 0.0026). The GFP-DC specimens showed the highest incidence of catastrophic failures (p = 0.0420). CONCLUSIONS Using fibre-reinforced composite (FRC) cores significantly increased fracture resistance in ETAT with ferrule. The failure modes repairable and possibly repairable were dominant in most specimens. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE When restoring ETAT with insufficient coronal tooth structure, preserving 2 mm of tooth structure ferrule and preparing cores with FRC can increase fracture resistance and reduce the incidence of non-repairable catastrophic fractures of teeth.

J Appl Oral Sci 2024; 32:e20230439. [PMID: 38896638 PMCID: PMC11182641 DOI: 10.1590/1678-7757-2023-0439] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2023] [Revised: 02/27/2024] [Accepted: 04/22/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of the labiolingual diameter and construction of an endodontically treated (ET) anterior tooth with crown restoration on stress distribution and biomechanical safety under occlusal loading. METHODOLOGY Three-dimensional finite element models were generated for maxillary central incisors with all-ceramic crown restorations. The labiolingual diameters of the tooth, defined as the horizontal distance between the protrusion of the labial and lingual surfaces, were changed as follows: (D1) 6.85 mm, (D2) 6.35 mm, and (D3) 5.85 mm. The model was constructed as follows: (S0) vital pulp tooth; (S1) ET tooth; (S2) ET tooth with a 2 mm ferrule, restored with a fiber post and composite resin core; (S3) ET tooth without a ferrule, restored with a fiber post and composite resin core. A total of 12 models were developed. In total, two force loads (100 N) were applied to the crown's incisal edge and palatal surface at a 45° oblique angle to the longitudinal axis of the teeth. The Von Mises stress distribution and maximum stress of the models were analyzed. RESULTS Regardless of the loading location, stress concentration and maximum stress (34.07~66.78MPa) in all models occurred in the labial cervical 1/3 of each root. Both labiolingual diameter and construction influenced the maximum stress of the residual tooth tissue, with the impact of the labiolingual diameter being greater. A reduction in labiolingual diameter led to increased maximum stress throughout the tooth. The ferrule reduced the maximum stress of the core of S2 models (7.15~10.69 MPa), which is lower compared with that of S3 models (19.45~43.67 MPa). CONCLUSION The labiolingual diameter exerts a greater impact on the biomechanical characteristics of ET anterior teeth with crown restoration, surpassing the influence of the construction. The ferrule can reduce the maximum stress of the core and maintain the uniformity of stress distribution.

Abstract
Introduction Dental caries and traumatic injuries often lead to tooth loss in adolescents and adults, necessitating endodontic treatment and subsequent restoration. Restoring such teeth presents a challenge due to varying degrees of substance loss. After endodontic treatment, the choice of an appropriate post is crucial for long-term stability. While metal posts are sturdy, they lack aesthetics and may cause root fractures. Fiber posts, such as carbon and glass fiber, offer improved aesthetics and mechanical properties, but their comparative performance warrants investigation. Materials and methods A total of 30 extracted anterior single-rooted teeth were divided into two groups to receive either carbon fiber or glass fiber posts. After endodontic treatment and post-space preparation, the posts were cemented using a dual polymerizing adhesive resin composite. Fracture resistance was assessed using a universal testing machine. Results The mean fracture resistance of the carbon fiber post group was recorded at 271.2 N, whereas the glass fiber post group exhibited a significantly higher mean fracture resistance of 416.133 N. This difference in fracture resistance between the two groups was found to be statistically significant (p < 0.05). Conclusion Glass fiber post systems demonstrated superior fracture resistance compared to carbon fiber post systems in anterior single-rooted teeth. These findings support the clinical preference for glass fiber posts in restoring endodontically treated anterior teeth, offering both mechanical reliability and aesthetic advantages. However, further research, including long-term clinical trials, is warranted to validate these findings and assess the overall clinical performance and longevity of fiber post systems in real-world settings.

[PMID: 38678244 PMCID: PMC11055251 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-024-04283-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2024] [Accepted: 04/19/2024] [Indexed: 04/29/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to assess the accuracy of two different endodontic guides for fiber post removal. METHODS In this in vitro study, 54 maxillary canine fiber posts were mounted on 36 maxillary stone casts; 18 teeth were mounted unilaterally, and 36 teeth were mounted bilaterally. Static endodontic guides were fabricated according to baseline cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and intraoral optical scans using Blue Sky software. In the single-sleeve endodontic guides group (SSG), two anterior and two posterior teeth were included in a 5-unit guide. In the double-sleeve endodontic guides group (DSG) group, the guide was passed through the midline to include both canine teeth and extended by 2 teeth posterior to the canine teeth bilaterally (a 10-unit guide). After drilling, postoperative CBCT scans were taken and superimposed on the virtually designed path, and the maximum coronal deviation (MCD) at the marginal entry point of the tooth, maximum apical deviation (MAD) at 10 mm apical to the tooth margin, and maximum angular deflection (MAnD) of the drill were calculated. RESULTS The mean MCD, MAD, and MAnD were 0.34 mm, 0.6 mm, and 2.32 degrees, respectively, in the SSG and 0.31 mm, 0.7 mm, and 2.37 degrees, respectively, in the DSG. The two groups were not significantly different from each other in terms of MCD (P = 0.573), MAD (P = 0.290), or MAnD (P = 0.896). CONCLUSIONS The accuracies of the two techniques, the extended double sleeve guide and the single sleeve guide, were comparable and thus DSG may be used for removal of fiber posts in adjacent or distant teeth.

J ESTHET RESTOR DENT 2024; 36:673-679. [PMID: 37921014 DOI: 10.1111/jerd.13159] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2023] [Revised: 08/25/2023] [Accepted: 10/16/2023] [Indexed: 11/04/2023]
Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Despite the growing utilization of direct intraoral scanners (IOSs) in dentistry, there is a scarcity of research investigating their accuracy, specifically in post and core. Few studies have conducted comprehensive three-dimensional assessments and comparisons of IOSs with the conventional impression technique, particularly in different post space lengths. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to digitally assess the accuracy of direct intraoral scanner (IOS) impressions for different post space lengths, specifically 6, 8, and 10 mm. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 45 typodont teeth (maxillary central incisors) were selected for this study. The teeth underwent endodontic treatment and were divided into three subgroups, each with 15 teeth, based on the desired post space lengths: 6, 8, and 10 mm. Intraoral scans of all specimens were acquired directly using the CEREC Primescan intraoral scanners by two trained examiners. The obtained scan data were compared with conventional impressions obtained using light and heavy bodies of polyvinyl siloxane (PVS). As a control, the conventional impressions were subsequently scanned using an inEos X5a lab scanner. The accuracy of the digital scans was evaluated in the coronal, middle, and apical thirds using the Geomagic Control X software. Statistical analysis was performed using Bonferroni Post-hoc and One-way ANOVA tests to analyze the data. RESULTS The overall mean root mean square (RMS) deviations for the different post lengths across the three thirds groups were 58, 81, and 101 μm for the 6, 8, and 10 mm subgroups, respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in the accuracy of the coronal and middle thirds among all subgroups (p > 0.5). However, in the apical third, the 10 mm subgroup exhibited a significantly lower accuracy (163 μm) compared to the 6 mm (96 μm) and 8 mm (131 μm) subgroups (p < 0.05). These results suggest that while the accuracy of intraoral scans using direct IOS impressions was consistent in the coronal and middle thirds regardless of the post length, there was a noticeable decrease in accuracy in the apical third, particularly with longer post lengths. CONCLUSION Considering the limitations of this in vitro study, chairside direct IOS impressions offer a viable and clinically acceptable alternative to the conventional impression technique for post space lengths of 6 and 8 mm. However, as the post space length preparation increases, the accuracy of IOS decreases. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The Chairside direct IOS enables expedited and efficient digital impression capture within the root canal, ensuring acceptable accuracy for intracanal post length preparation of up to 8 mm.

[PMID: 38514731 PMCID: PMC10958049 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-57454-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 03/18/2024] [Indexed: 03/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Previous research has primarily focused on pre-processing parameters such as design, material selection, and printing techniques to improve the strength of 3D-printed prosthetic leg sockets. However, these methods fail to address the major challenges that arise post-printing, namely failures at the distal end of the socket and susceptibility to shear failure. Addressing this gap, the study aims to enhance the mechanical properties of 3D-printed prosthetic leg sockets through post-processing techniques. Fifteen PLA + prosthetic leg sockets are fabricated and reinforced with four materials: carbon fiber, carbon-Kevlar fiber, fiberglass, and cement. Mechanical and microstructural properties of the sockets are evaluated through axial compression testing and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results highlight superior attributes of cement-reinforced sockets, exhibiting significantly higher yield strength (up to 89.57% more than counterparts) and higher Young's modulus (up to 76.15% greater). SEM reveals correlations between microstructural properties and socket strength. These findings deepen the comprehension of 3D-printed prosthetic leg socket post-processing, presenting optimization prospects. Future research can focus on refining fabrication techniques, exploring alternative reinforcement materials, and investigating the long-term durability and functionality of post-processed 3D-printed prosthetic leg sockets.

Abstract
Introduction There is a growing demand for post and core systems that offer both ease of use and efficiency. Recently introduced dual-cure build-up and post cement materials exhibit properties similar to dentin. The objective of this laboratory experiment is to compare the fracture resistance among three distinct post and core systems and identify the locations of failures within each group. Material and methods This in vitro experimental study involved 30 epoxy resin-based blocks (Endo Training Bloc J, Dentsply Sirona, Ballaigues, Switzerland) divided into three groups: The first group was a post space preparation and restoration with a fiber post (RelyX™ Fiber Post, 3M ESPE, Saint Paul, Minnesota, United States) 1.6 mm in diameter and 10 mm in length (Group A) where core build-up and cementation were performed using a dual-cure build-up and cement for endodontic post resin material (Core X Flow, Dentsply DeTrey, Konstanz, Germany). The second group was a post space preparation and restoration using a dual-cure build-up and cement for endodontic post resin material, 10 mm in length filled with resin but without fiber post placement (Group B). The third group was where post space and core were filled and restored with a dual-cure build-up and cement for endodontic post resin material, 5 mm in length and without fiber post placement (Group C). Subsequently, samples were mounted and tested using a universal testing machine (Instron, Canton, Massachusetts, United States), and the fracture site was located. Results Significant differences were identified among the three groups, indicating the impact of both post length and type on fracture resistance (p-value <0.05). Group B exhibited the highest mean compressive strength resistance and maximum load at 899.3330 (N), followed by Group C at 848.9690 (N) and Group A at 751.9620 (N). The predominant failures in the samples were core fractures or debonding of the core material. Conclusion All-resin posts demonstrated high fracture resistance, unlike fiber posts which displayed inferior fracture resistance.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The success of endodontically treated teeth (ETT) is influenced by factors that include the use of prefabricated glass fiber posts. A consideration for success is the presence of a circumferential ferrule, but systematic reviews and meta-analyses are lacking. PURPOSE The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to assess the impact of the presence or absence of a circumferential ferrule on the survival and success rates of ETT restored with prefabricated fiber posts. MATERIAL AND METHODS Adhering to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, a comprehensive search of the major scientific literature databases was conducted. Eligible studies included randomized clinical trials and prospective cohort studies with a minimum 6-month follow-up, focusing on ETT restored with fiber posts either with or without a uniform circumferential ferrule. Relative risks (RRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to compare outcomes. The degree of variability among studies was assessed using the chi-squared test (α=.05). RESULTS Of 3731 identified records, 8 were eligible for inclusion. Direct analysis of success rates (2 studies, 123 teeth) showed a significant increase in success when a uniform circumferential ferrule was present (RR=1.28, 95% CI: 1.06, 1.54, P<.05). However, indirect analysis of survival and success rates (8 studies, 407 teeth) indicated no significant differences in outcomes between the ferrule and no ferrule groups (P>.05). CONCLUSIONS The results of this systematic review and meta-analysis determined that a uniform circumferential ferrule had a positive effect on the success rates of ETT restored with prefabricated fiber posts. However, further high-quality studies are required to provide more robust evidence and to allow potential confounding factors to be considered.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to analyze the effects of core materials, remaining tooth structures, and interfacial bonding on stress distribution in endodontically treated teeth using finite element analysis (FEA). MATERIALS AND METHODS Three-dimensional FEA was conducted using a reverse engineering technique based on maxillary premolars scanned by micro-computed tomography. Six models were generated with or without ferrules and with one of the following three abutment systems: metal core, resin core, or resin core with fiber posts. In each model, bonding and debonding were assumed in the dentin and surrounding structures: bonded and debonded models. The maximum principal stress values were recorded, and stress distribution of the entire restored teeth and dentin was generated. Furthermore, the distribution of the displacement vector of the debonded models was generated. RESULTS In comparing the bonded and debonded models, the debonded models showed larger values for tensile stresses than those in bonded models for all abutment models. The models without ferrules rotated around the center of the abutment, whereas those with ferrules did not show remarkable displacement in the analysis. CONCLUSION FEA assuming fracture of adhesive interface proved to be an effective method to clarify the significance of ferrules. It prevents stress concentration in dentin by reducing the rotation of the abutment, even when the adhesive fails.

Abstract
Background This study aimed to evaluate the effects of using three different resin cements on push-out bond strength (PBS) of fiber posts to root canal dentin of primary teeth. Methods Fifty primary canines were randomly divided into five experimental groups according to the type of the luting agent used for fiber post cementation after endodontic treatment and post space preparation as the following: Group 1: glass ionomer cement (GIC), Group 2: flowable resin composite, Group 3: etch and rinse (E&R) resin cement, Group 4: self-etch (SE) resin cement, Group 5: self-adhesive (SA) resin cement. The PBS values of the cemented fiber posts to root canals were measured. The data were statistically analyzed using a one-way analysis of variance, followed by Tukey's post hoc test. Results The highest mean PBS value was observed in Group 4 (SE resin cement), followed by Group 3 (E&R resin cement), and the lowest PBS value belonged to Group 1 (GIC), followed by Group 5 (p-values < 0.05). The mean PBS of Group 3 (E&R resin cement) was significantly higher than those of Groups 1 (GIC), 2 (flowable resin composite), and 5 (SA resin cement) (p-values < 0.05). However, no significant difference was found between the mean PBS of GIC and SA resin cement (p-value >0/05). Conclusion Using SE resin cement for fiber post cementation in primary anterior teeth showed the best results, followed by E&R resin cement. The lowest PBS was observed for GIC, followed by SA resin cement.

J Prosthet Dent 2023:S0022-3913(23)00569-3. [PMID: 37827970 DOI: 10.1016/j.prosdent.2023.08.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2023] [Revised: 08/24/2023] [Accepted: 08/25/2023] [Indexed: 10/14/2023]
Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Different varieties of fiber and metal intraradicular posts have been used for the restoration of endodontically treated teeth with insufficient sound tooth structure. Evidence on the comparative efficacy of posts in a clinical setting is insufficient to provide clear clinical guidelines and recommendations. PURPOSE The purpose of this systematic review with network meta-analysis was to assess the comparative efficacy of fiber and metal posts used for the restoration of endodontically treated teeth. MATERIAL AND METHODS A search was conducted for trials published in Medline, Scopus, PubMed, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials from inception until November 2022. The study was registered with the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) (CRD42022384340). A network meta-analysis was performed on data from randomized controlled trials that assessed the comparative efficacy of fiber posts and metal posts for the restoration of endodontically treated teeth. Subgroup analyses were performed to compare all the varieties of fiber and metal posts. The types of posts were ranked according to their efficacy using the Surface Under the Cumulative Ranking (SUCRA) system. The Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluations (GRADE) approach was used to assess the level of certainty of evidence. RESULTS Twenty-five articles were included in the quantitative analysis. Fiber posts (RR=0.15 [95% CI: 0.06, 0.33]) significantly prevented tooth fracture as compared with no posts. Prefabricated carbon fiber posts (RR=0.06 [95% CI: 0, 0.54]) ranked highest followed by custom glass fiber posts (RR=0.15 [95% CI: 0.04, 0.52]) and prefabricated glass fiber posts (RR=0.22 [95% CI: 0.07, 0.62]) in the outcome of tooth fracture. Metal posts (RR=0.24 [95% CI: 0.12, 0.46]) ranked higher than fiber posts (RR=0.39 [95% CI: 0.27, 0.56]) in the outcome of debonding. Custom gold alloy posts (RR=0.12 [95% CI: 0.03, 0.48]), prefabricated gold alloy posts (RR=0.04 [95% CI: 0.00, 0.87]), and prefabricated titanium posts (RR=0.21 [95% CI: 0.10, 0.45]) had higher rankings in the outcome of debonding or loss of retention of a post followed by custom glass fiber posts (RR=0.37 [95% CI: 0.21, 0.63]) and prefabricated glass fiber posts (RR=0.38 [95%CI: 0.25, 0.58]). Prefabricated glass fiber posts (RR=0.40 [95% CI: 0.20, 0.81]) had statistically significant differences in the outcome of secondary caries. The GRADE approach determined a moderate level of certainty of evidence. CONCLUSIONS The use of a fiber post when indicated results in reduced risk of tooth fracture as compared with no post. Prefabricated carbon fiber posts, prefabricated glass fiber posts, and custom glass fiber posts reveal a lower risk of tooth fracture. Overall, the use of prefabricated glass fiber posts had a lower risk of tooth fracture, debonding, and secondary caries. However, more trials with longer follow-up periods are recommended to enhance the certainty of evidence.

MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2023; 59:1797. [PMID: 37893515 PMCID: PMC10608114 DOI: 10.3390/medicina59101797] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2023] [Revised: 10/08/2023] [Accepted: 10/08/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: Although fiber posts are widely used in the restoration of endodontically treated teeth (ETT), their ideal cementation depth into the root canal is still debated in literature. The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether the different intra-radicular insertion lengths of the fiber posts influence the fracture strength of ETT. Materials and Methods: A total of 10 permanent human lower incisors with straight roots of similar length and volume extracted for periodontal reason were sectioned 2 mm above the cement-enamel junction (CEJ) to a total length of 18 mm and endodontically treated in the same manner, then randomly divided into two groups of five each (Groups 1 and 2, n = 5). Two sound incisors, with no endodontic treatment, were used as the control group (Group 3, n = 2). After one week of storage in a humid environment, spaces for fiber post no. 1 (Reforpost, Angelus, Londrina, PR, Brazil) were prepared in the first two groups at a depth of 5 mm (Group 1) and 7 mm (Group 2), and the fiber posts were adhesively cemented using self-adhesive resin cement (Maxcem Elite, Kerr GmbH, Herzogenrath, Germany). After 7 days, the samples were vertically positioned and fixed in a self-curing transparent acrylic resin, up to 2 mm below the CEJ level, and mechanically tested in compression after another week of storage using a displacement-controlled testing machine up to each sample's fracture. The force-displacement curves were recorded for each sample, the means were calculated for each group and a statistical comparative analysis between groups was conducted. Results: Although no statistically significant differences between groups were observed, the highest mean fracture force (N) was recorded in Group 2 (1099.41 ± 481.89) in comparison to Group 1 (985.09 ± 330.28), even when compared to the sound, non-treated teeth (1045.69 ± 146.19). Conclusions: Within the limitations of this in vitro study, teeth where fiber posts were placed deeper into the root canal (7 mm) recorded slightly higher fracture forces in comparison with shorter lengths (5 mm). However, similar biomechanical performances obtained in the mechanical tests showed no statistical differences between the 7 mm and the 5 mm inserted posts.

Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:3984. [PMID: 37836032 PMCID: PMC10574831 DOI: 10.3390/polym15193984] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2023] [Revised: 09/30/2023] [Accepted: 10/01/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023] Open
Abstract
This investigation evaluated the effects of aprotic solvents, i.e., tetrahydrofuran, pyridine, and morpholine, compared with hydrogen peroxide, on the surfaces of fiber-reinforced composite posts with a composite core based on the microtensile bond strength. In total, 150 FRC Postec Plus posts and 150 D.T. Light-Posts were randomly divided into three groups (non-thermocycling, 5000-cycle, and 10,000-cycle thermocycling groups). Each group was divided into five subgroups according to the post-surface treatment: C, non-treatment group; H2O2, immersed in 35% hydrogen peroxide; THF, immersed in tetrahydrofuran; PY, immersed in pyridine; and MP, immersed in morpholine. The treated specimens were placed in the bottom of a plastic cap and filled with a composite core material in preparation for the microtensile bond test. The data were evaluated using one-way ANOVA and Tukey's test (p < 0.05) as well as an independent t-test (p < 0.05). For the surface roughness, white light interferometry was used for measurement, and the mean surface roughness was analyzed via one-way ANOVA and Tukey's test (p < 0.05). The results showed that, under non-thermocycling conditions, the PY subgroup with D.T. Light-Post had the highest microtensile bond strength, followed by THF, MP, H2O2, and the control groups. For FRC Postec Plus, the PY group had the highest microtensile bond strength, followed by MP, THF, H2O2, and the control groups. Although the thermocycling conditions decreased the microtensile bond strength in all groups, the PY subgroup still had the highest value. An independent t-test revealed that even under all non-thermocycling and 5000- and 10,000-cycle thermocycling conditions, D.T. Light-Post in the PY subgroup displayed significantly higher microtensile bond strengths than FRC Postec Plus in the PY subgroup. While the surface roughness of the fiber-reinforced composite posts showed that the posts treated with pyridine possessed the highest surface roughness for each material type, In conclusion, as an aprotic solvent, pyridine generates the highest microtensile bond strength between the interfaces of composite cores and fiber-reinforced composite posts.

Abstract
Removing a fiber post from a root canal that requires endodontic retreatment is often very challenging. Conventional freehand techniques for removing fiber posts are time-consuming, sometimes result in iatrogenic errors, and heavily rely on the practitioner's experience. The endodontic static guide can be an alternative method. While the use of an endodontic 3D-printed static guide for fiber post removal has been reported as highly successful, it can also cause complications. Skipping any critical steps during the guide construction or its clinical application can lead to errors. This case report presents the saving of a compromised tooth with a fractured fiber post and a periapical lesion around the apex through the use of an endodontic static guide for fiber post removal. This study describes possible sources of error that may happen during construction and clinical use of the guide.

Abstract
Fiber-reinforced prefabricated intraarticular posts have gained popularity due to several favorable characteristics for clinical use compared to metallic intraradicular posts. AIM To evaluate the light transmission capacity of two types of fiber posts, using two different methods. MATERIALS AND METHOD The posts were divided into two groups: experimental group - quartz-glass fiber posts (n=10) and control group - glass fiber posts (n=10). The light transmittance of the samples was compared by means of light intensity test by photographs and ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer. This test was analyzed by thirds: coronal, middle, and apical. The spectophotometer tested the luminous transmittance along the length of the post. The statistical analysis was conducted with a significance level of 0.05. RESULTS Light transmission was 97% on the coronal third, 68% in the middle third, and 27.66% in the apical third in the posts of the experimental group. In the posts of the control group, the light transmission was 95.33% in the coronal third, 80.66% in the middle third, and 41.33% in the apical third. Light transmission was significantly higher in the middle third of the posts of the experimental group when compared to the control group (p<0.05). The luminous transmittance of the posts of the experimental group was 97.4% with wavelengths of 400 nm, 97% at 450 and 500 nm, and 96.9% at 550 nm. In the posts of the control group, the luminous transmittance was 72.3% with wavelengths of 400 nm, 68.6% at 450 nm; 64.6% at 500 nm and 61.5% at 550 nm. The posts of the experimental group demonstrated significantly higher light transmittance than the control group (p<0.001).

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Achieving stable adhesion between fiber post and interradicular dentin is a challenging process in the restoration of endodontically treated teeth. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of surface pretreatment with cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) on improving the bond strength between them. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-eight single-canal mandibular premolars were cut 1 mm above the cementoenamel junction to keep the root length of 14 mm or more. After endodontic treatment and preparation of the post space, the teeth were divided into four groups regarding the pretreatment of dentin surfaces, including normal saline, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), CAP, and CAP + EDTA groups. The data were analyzed using paired and independent t-test and one-way analysis of variance and the significance level was set at p < .05. RESULTS The bond strength was significantly higher in the coronal third than in the apical third in all the groups. Moreover, the bond strength was significantly higher in the CAP + EDTA-treated group. The bond strength increased significantly in the CAP group compared to the normal saline group. In addition, the bond strength increased significantly in the CAP or EDTA groups compared to the control group. The lowest bond strength belonged to the control group (normal saline). CONCLUSION The surface pretreatment with CAP (alone or in combination with EDTA) played a significant role in improving the bond strength of fiber post and root canal dentin.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of various silane coupling agents on the micro-push-out bond strength between a hydrogen peroxide-etched epoxy-based fiber-reinforced post and composite resin core. Seventy-five cross-linked epoxy-based fiber-reinforced posts were etched with 24% hydrogen peroxide for 10 min. Then they were divided into five groups according to various silane coupling agents and bonded to a composite core. A Universal Testing Machine was utilized to evaluate the push-out bond strength. In addition, all groups' modes of failure were assessed. The push-out bond strength data in MPa were analyzed using ANOVA and a Tukey HSD post hoc test to reveal any difference between the groups. Results revealed that the application of a two-bottle silane coupling agent exhibited the highest bond strength, while the application of a one-bottle silane coupling agent demonstrated the lowest bond strength for a hydrogen peroxide-etched fiber post bonded to a composite core material, which was statistically significant (p < 0.05). The strongest association with the highest bond strength was found with the two-bottle silane coupling agent when compared to the one-bottle. The study highlighted that the application of a silane-coupling agent may affect the bond strength between composite and epoxy-based fiber-reinforced posts.

SEM, EDX, FTIR, rheometric and bond strength study. Microsc Res Tech 2023. [PMID: 37129273 DOI: 10.1002/jemt.24330] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2023] [Revised: 04/06/2023] [Accepted: 04/08/2023] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
The aim was to formulate an experimental adhesive (EA) and added nanoparticles (NPs) of beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) to see the impact on pushout bond strength (PBS) and other mechanical properties. Three adhesives were prepared, including EA (control, without β-TCP NPs), 2.5%-β-TCP NPs containing adhesive (2.5%-NPA), and 5% β-TCP NPs containing adhesive (5%-NPA). For the characterization of the NPs, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy was accomplished. For the adhesive's characterization, rheological assessment, and degree of conversion (DC) analysis were performed. PBS of these adhesives against resin fiber post to root dentin, interfacial failure categories, and resin dentin interface analysis were also assessed. The β-TCP NPs were seen as agglomerated asymmetrical particles on SEM. These NPs were composed primarily of calcium (Ca), and phosphorus (P). Rheological evaluation of the adhesive's showed a drop in the viscosity of all adhesives at greater angular frequencies. The greatest DC was detected for the EA group (67.54 ± 7.9) followed by 2.5%-NPA group (45.32 ± 5.1), whereas the lowest DC values were seen for the 5%-NPA group (38.97 ± 6.5). Concerning PBS, the 2.5%-NPA revealed the highest values at the coronal (12.81 ± 3.0) and middle (8.50 ± 2.3) sections, whereas, for the apical section, the highest PBS values were seen for the 5%-NPA (4.9 ± 1.6). Most of the failures for all adhesive groups were seen at the adhesive-dentin interface (cohesive type failures) for all root segments (coronal, middle, and apical). The resin-dentin interface analysis verified hybrid layer and resin tag formation for all adhesives, but the presence of dispersed β-TCP NPs was only seen in the two NP-reinforced adhesives. The adding of β-TCP NPs in the adhesive could be beneficial as it could improve its PBS. Suitable rheological properties and dentin interaction were also observed for NP-reinforced adhesives. A reduced DC was seen for both β-TCP NP-containing adhesives as compared to the EA. RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS: Experimental adhesives were reinforced with beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) nanocrystals. The β-TCP NPs were seen as agglomerated asymmetrical particles on SEM. These NPs were composed primarily of calcium (Ca), and phosphorus (P). β-TCP adhesives demonstrated superior pushout bond strength and a drop in the adhesive viscosity at greater angular frequencies compared to control adhesive. The greatest DC was detected for the EA group followed by 2.5%- β-TCP group, whereas the lowest DC values were for the 5%- β-TCP group.

Synthesis and Characterization of Zirconia–Silica PMMA Nanocomposite for Endodontic Implants. Dent J (Basel) 2023; 11:dj11030057. [PMID: 36975554 PMCID: PMC10047012 DOI: 10.3390/dj11030057] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2022] [Revised: 01/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/28/2023] [Indexed: 02/25/2023] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to enhance the mechanical properties of PMMA composites by introducing various types of fillers, including ZrO2, SiO2, and a mixture of ZrO2-SiO2 nanoparticles, which were prepared as prototypes for an endodontic implant. The ZrO2, SiO2, and mixed ZrO2-SiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized using the sol–gel method and the precursors Tetraethyl Orthosilicate, Zirconium Oxychloride, and a mixture of both precursors, respectively. Before polymerization, the as-synthesized powders were subjected to the bead milling process to obtain a well-dispersed suspension. Two scenarios for the fillers were implemented in the preparation of the PMMA composite: a mixture of ZrO2/SiO2 and ZrO2-SiO2 mixed with two different types of silane: (3-Mercaptopropyl) trimethoxysilane (MPTS) and 3-(Trimethoxysilyl) Propyl Methacrylate (TMSPMA). The observation of the characteristics of all of the investigated fillers included the use of a particle-size analyzer (PSA), a Zeta-potential analyzer, FTIR, XRF, XRD, and SEM. The mechanical properties of the MMA composites, as prepared under various scenarios, were observed in terms of their flexural strength, diametrical tensile strength (DTS), and modulus of elasticity (ME). These levels of performance were compared with a PMMA-only polymer. Each sample was measured five times for flexural strength, DTS, and ME. The results showed that the best PMMA composite was SiO2/ZrO2/TMSPMA, as revealed by measurements of the flexural strength, DTS, and ME corresponding to 152.7 ± 13.0 MPa, 51.2 ± 0.6 MPa, and 9272.8 ± 2481.4 MPa, which are close to the mechanical properties of dentin. The viability of these PMMA composites, as measured up to day 7, was 93.61%, indicating that they are nontoxic biomaterials. Therefore, it was concluded that the PMMA composite created with SiO2/ZrO2/TMSPMA can be considered to be an acceptable endodontic implant.

Abstract
This in vitro study compared the fracture resistance of weakened roots restored with milled or relined glass fiber post (GFP). Seventy bovine incisors were divided into seven groups, according to the weakening protocol (none: control; medium-weakened: MW; highly-weakened: HW) and post anatomization technique (non-relined, relined with Bulk Fill or Z350 resin; milled GFP: M). Roots were thermomechanical cycled and submitted to compression. Frequencies and groups were compared by the chi-square test and two-factor ANOVA, Tukey's, and t-test (α=5%). The HW-M obtained the lowest values, showing significant differences compared to all groups (p<0.001). The highest value was HW-Bulk fill, with significant difference compared to MW-M (p=0.037) and HW-M (p<0.001). The frequency of repairable fractures was 100% in the control, 87%, and 63% in the MW and HW, respectively. Relined or milled GFPs can be considered to rehabilitate weakened teeth since failure patterns were predominantly repairable in all groups.

Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:4321. [PMID: 36297897 PMCID: PMC9607604 DOI: 10.3390/polym14204321] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2022] [Revised: 10/07/2022] [Accepted: 10/11/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Glass fiber post based on the new polymeric material, polybenzoxazine, is prepared and the effects of glass fiber contents on mechanical and thermal properties are evaluated. The mechanical response to externally applied loads of tooth restored with glass fiber-reinforced polybenzoxazine composite posts is also simulated by finite element analysis of a tridimensional model and compared with the response to that of a natural tooth. The reinforcing of glass fiber can help improve the mechanical and thermal properties of the polybenzoxazine influenced by the interfacial adhesion between the glass fiber and polybenzoxazine matrix, except for the relatively high mechanical property of the glass fiber. The mechanical data, i.e., elastic modulus under flexure load or flexural modulus by three-point bending test of the glass fiber-reinforced polybenzoxazine composites are agreed with the elastic modulus of dentin and then used in the finite element model. The restoration using the glass fiber-reinforced polybenzoxazine composite post provided the maximum von Mises equivalent stress at the cervical third area of the endodontically treated tooth model as similarly observed in the natural tooth. In addition, the maximum von Mises equivalent stress of the tooth restored with the glass fiber-reinforced polybenzoxazine composite post is also quietly like that of the natural tooth. The finding of this work provided the essential properties of the glass fiber-reinforced polybenzoxazine composite for dental restorations and appliances.

Abstract
STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Few studies have investigated the differences among various post-and-core systems under mastication simulation. Comparing these systems while simulating the clinical environment should provide a more accurate assessment of their performance. PURPOSE The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the fatigue resistance of conventional cast metal and prefabricated fiber post systems with computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacture (CAD-CAM) prefabricated nonmetal post-and-core systems. MATERIAL AND METHODS Forty freshly extracted human maxillary premolars were endodontically treated and divided into 4 subgroups (n=10) according to the material: cast metal, zirconia, fiber-reinforced composite resin, prefabricated fiber post. The post-and-core materials were manufactured either conventionally or milled with CAD-CAM technology. All specimens were exposed to simultaneous mastication simulation (1.2 million cycles) and thermocycling (10 000 cycles at 5 °C to 55 °C) and analyzed based on failure of specimens. Data were analyzed by using the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox-regression (α=.05). RESULTS Both cast metal and zirconia post-and-core groups had similar fatigue resistance (P>.05) but significantly higher fatigue resistance than the fiber-reinforced groups (P<.05). Fiber-reinforced composite resin and prefabricated fiber post did not survive the mastication simulation, fracturing between 504 000 and 752 000 cycles, with fractures occurring in the cervical portion of the tooth. CONCLUSIONS Cast metal and zirconia post-and-core systems had improved physical properties with high resistance to fatigue when compared with fiber-reinforced post-and-core systems.

Abstract
The aim of this laboratory study was to evaluate the pull-out force of a prefabricated fiberglass post (PP), relined fiberglass post (RP), or milled fiberglass post (MP) luted with Multilink N (MN), RelyX Unicem 2 (RXU2) or RelyX Ultimate (RU) to enlarged root canals. The thickness of the resin cements and the presence of voids in the resin cement film were observed. The root canals of 90 bovine incisors were enlarged, endodontically treated, and randomly divided into 9 groups (n=10) according to the post type and resin cement. The specimens were scanned using micro-CT to analyze the thickness of the resin cement and the presence of voids. The specimens were submitted to mechanical cyclic loading (500,000 cycles at 50 N load) and subjected to pull-out force testing. Two-way ANOVA and Tukey's test analyzed the pull-out force and resin cement thickness data. Kruskal-Wallis and Bonferroni tests analyzed the void scores. The interaction between factors (post x resin cement) was significant (p=0.0001) for the pull-out force. Higher pull-out forces were obtained for RP and MP compared to PP. The post factor was significant (p=0.0001) for resin cement thickness, which was higher for PP (1054 μm), followed by MP (301 μm) and RP (194 μm). More void formation occurred for PP, being less for RP, differing significantly among the posts. Post customization (RP and MP) decreased resin cement thickness and void formation, favoring a higher pull-out force. Resin cements requiring an adhesive application (MN and RU) favored higher pull-out force than self-adhesive resin cement (RXU2).

Abstract
BACKGROUND To consciously select an appropriate dental cement for each type of intracanal post. MATERIALS AND METHODS An electronic search was carried out (1970 to 2020) through Medline, PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar. The following keywords were searched in title, abstract, or keywords with different combinations: endodontically treated tooth, root canal therapy, dental posts, post and core, prefabricated posts, custom posts, dental cement, resin cements, cement selection, cement, and adhesive resin cement. RESULTS Evaluating full texts, 146 articles were selected to review the types of posts and cements, selection criteria of appropriate cement for each type of post, and compare the results obtained by different cements. CONCLUSION Dental cements affect the survival rate, durability, and success rate of postbased treatments. Considering special characteristics and application of each type of intracanal post, conscious selection of cement is an important determining factor in long-lasting success. Choosing an appropriate cement has a key role in success and durability of dowel posts-based fixed restorations.

Abstract
Objective The retention of glass fiber post (GFP) is considered a key factor for the long-term success of restorations of endodontically treated teeth. This study aimed to compare the compressive strength of a ceramic crown supported by a GFP using different luting agents. Methods Forty single-rooted premolars were randomly divided into four groups (n = 10 each): control group (teeth without a GFP), Ketac Cem group (glass ionomer), RelyX ARC group (conventional dual-curing resin), and RelyX U200 group (self-adhesive dual-curing resin). After luting of the posts and placement of all-ceramic crowns made using feldspathic porcelain (Noritake EX-3), they were exposed to thermocycling for 1000 cycles and compressive strength tests. Statistical analysis included Kruskal–Wallis test with Dunn’s multi-comparison test. Results The Ketac Cem group and RelyX U200 group showed significantly greater fracture resistance to compressive loading than the control group. Conclusion This study indicates a possible role of the luting agent used with the GFP in influencing the compressive strength of the restored teeth. In this study, the self-adhesive dual-curing resin and glass ionomer both offered resistance to fractures.

Enhancing the Mechanical Behaviour and Antibacterial Activity of Bioepoxy Using Hybrid Nanoparticles for Dental Applications. Int J Biomater 2022; 2022:2124070.

Abstract
The appropriate capability of handling several forces exerted inside the mouth, and preventing the adhesion and proliferation of oral microorganisms are among the most vital factors for achieving effective alternative dental materials to the damaged native. Nevertheless, lack of mechanical and antimicrobial properties of dental resins hinders their use in most clinical applications in dentistry. In the present study, the main aim was to provide bioepoxy composite biomaterials that could meet the required mechanical and antibacterial properties for dental related fields. Herein, highly biocompatible epoxy and hybrid reinforcing materials were utilised to produce a composite material, which could have features resembling those of original dental parts. Various weight fractions of nanosilver/nano-alumina particles at 1, 2, and 3 wt% were incorporated into the bioepoxy for improving the mechanical and antibacterial characteristics of the biocompatible epoxy resin. Three-point bending and Izod impact tests were performed to evaluate the flexure and impact strengths of the obtained nanocomposites. The morphology of pristine bioepoxy and nanoparticle reinforced bioepoxy composites was characterized by scanning electron microscopy. The influence of these fillers on the bioepoxy resin antibacterial sensitivity was assessed using the agar diffusion technique. Nanofiller contents have been revealed to have a remarkable role to play in tuning the mechanical properties of the nanocomposites; the flexure strength and modulus were higher when the total ratio of hybrid reinforcement was 2 wt%. In contrast, the addition of higher percentage of hybrid nanoparticles could cause deterioration in the flexure characteristics of nanocomposites, yet they were better than those of pristine epoxy. Regarding the impact strength, the enhancement in this property was only observed for the composite containing 1 wt% of AgNps-Al2O3; the impact strength was dropped gradually beyond this ratio. The antibacterial effectiveness of the nanocomposites was demonstrated to positively depend on the increase in AgNps mass fraction. Among all evaluated unmodified and modified bioepoxy, the nanocomposite containing 2.5 wt% of AgNps had the higher antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Based on the attainable outcomes, the prepared composites, particularly at moderate levels of Al2O3-AgNps, could provide biocomposites having the potential to be utilised in several biomedical fields, particularly in dental technology.

Abstract
Objective The aim of this systematic review was to provide an overview of available scientific evidence regarding the comparative efficacy of computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) glass fiber posts with prefabricated and metal cast posts for the restoration of endodontically treated teeth (ETT). Methods This systematic review was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Electronic and manual searches were performed using the PubMed, SciELO, Cochrane, ScienceDirect, Web of Science, and EBSCO databases. The reference lists of the selected papers were reviewed to identify relevant papers. There were no year restrictions, and eligible studies were those in English publications and describing in vitro studies evaluating intraradicular retainers (IRs) for (i) fracture resistance, (ii) bond strength, (iii) adaptation, and (iv) cement layer thickness. Literature reviews, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, case reports, in vitro studies with <8 specimens, and noncomparative trials involving prefabricated or metal cast posts were excluded. The authors of this review independently screened the search results, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias. Results No significant differences were found in fracture resistance between prefabricated and CAD/CAM glass fiber posts or between CAD/CAM glass fiber and metal cast posts, although the latter demonstrated higher fracture resistance than the prefabricated glass fiber posts. Restoration with a full crown was not necessary to increase the fracture resistance in the presence of the ferrule effect. CAD/CAM glass fiber and metal cast posts had higher bond strength, lower nanoleakage, and better adaptation to the root canal. Conclusions Despite the heterogeneity of methodologies and results reported, the results of these studies indicated that the CAD/CAM glass fiber and metal cast posts showed greater efficacy in terms of fracture resistance, retention, and adaptation, compared to prefabricated glass fiber posts.

Abstract
The purpose of the present in vitro study was to investigate the bond strength of root canal dentin and the filling ability of a new multi-fiber-reinforced composite post (mFRC) compared to a conventional single fiber-reinforced-composite post (sFRC). Twenty-eight freshly maxillary first permanent single-rooted premolars were instrumented and divided into groups (n = 14). Group 1: single-fiber-reinforced composite (sFRC), group 2: multi-fiber-reinforced composite (mFRC). Bonding procedures were performed using a dual-cure universal adhesive system and resin cement. All specimens were sectioned so that seven discs of 1 mm of thickness were obtained from each root. An optical microscope was used before the push-out test to measure the total area of the voids and to determine the length of the smaller/bigger circumferences. The push-out bond strength (PBS) test was performed using an Instron universal testing machine. Data were then compared by one-way ANOVA on ranks (α = 0.05). The dentin–cement–post interface was observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). At the coronal third, a significantly higher bond strength (p < 0.05) was obtained in the sFRC group (44.7 ± 13.1 MPa) compared to the mFRC group (37.2 ± 9.2 MPa). No significant difference was detected between the groups at the middle third (sFRC group “33.7 ± 12.5 MPa” and mFRC group “32.6 ± 12.4 MPa”) (p > 0.05). Voids were significantly lower in the mFRC compared to those observed in the sFRC group (p < 0.05) at the coronal third. Whereas, no significant difference was found at the middle third (p > 0.05) between the tested groups. Filling ability was overall improved when employing mFRC, although such technique might have characteristic limitations concerning the bond strength to dentin.

Aims To evaluate the flexural properties of computer-aided design-computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) milled posts fabricated from the experimental fibre-reinforced composite disks in different fibre direction, and to compare the flexural properties of the CAD-CAM milled posts to those of commercial prefabricated posts, RelyX and FRC PostecPlus. Settings and Design In vitro comparative study. Materials and Methods E-glass fibre was used to fabricate the CAD-CAM composite disks. The fibres were prepared in unidirectional and multidirectional arrangements into the epoxy resin, at 70% by weight. The disk was milled by the Cerec InLab CAD-CAM system to fabricate a post. Ten posts for each type of disk were prepared. Two types of commercial fibre posts, RelyX fibre post, and FRC PostecPlus were used as control. The three-point bending test was performed. Statistical Analysis Used The data were analysed using one-way ANOVA and Game-Howell post-hoc test. Results The results indicated that both commercial fibre posts had the highest flexural strength and flexural modulus. The unidirectional experimental post yielded significantly lower values in both flexural strengths (739.1 ± 24.1 MPa) and flexural modulus (21.0 ± 3.5 GPa) compared to the control posts, while the multidirectional experimental posts had extremely low flexural strength and flexural modulus. Conclusions The direction of the fibres significantly influenced the mechanical properties of the posts. The experimental unidirectional fibre-reinforced composite disk showed the potential to be used as a CAD-CAM disk for post and core fabrication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the push out bond strength of a glass fibre post to root dentine pretreated with 6.5% proanthocyanidin (PAC) and 0.02% phytosphingosine (PHS). METHODS Thirty-three freshly extracted single rooted human teeth were decoronated to a length of 14 mm. Root canals were prepared using rotary NiTi files and obturated with gutta percha and resin sealer. Post space was prepared using peeso reamers, retaining 5 mm of apical gutta percha. Following smear layer removal and acid etching of the post space, samples were randomly assigned to 3 groups based on the dentine pretreatment, namely the control (no pretreatment) group, 6.5% PAC group, and 0.02% PHS group. A glass fibre post was luted using a dual cure adhesive and luting cement. 1 mm thick root slices were sectioned from coronal, middle and apical levels of the post and their push out bond strength was evaluated using a universal testing machine. Data was analysed with one-way ANOVA and Games-Howell post hoc test (P<0.05). RESULTS At all levels, PHS showed higher push out bond strength than PAC and control groups, with a significant difference between the experimental groups at the middle and apical thirds (P<0.05). The push out bond strength of PAC group was significantly higher than the control group in the coronal and apical thirds (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Both PAC and PHS improved the push out bond strength of a glass fibre post to dentine.

Abstract
PURPOSE The fracture resistance of dental post systems is influenced by the material of the post. The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to assess if there is a difference in fracture resistance between prefabricated dental titanium posts and fiber posts. METHODS An online electronic search was performed using the PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases for in vitro studies published from 2010 to 2020 in English. The retrieved eligible studies that compared the fracture resistance of titanium and fiber posts on human teeth were selected. The pooled standardized mean difference (SMD) with a 95% confidence interval was calculated. In addition, the trial sequential analysis (TSA) was performed to test if the available studies are sufficient to make conclusive evidence. RESULTS Of the 1165 retrieved studies, 17 studies were included in the qualitative analysis, while 16 studies were included in the quantitative analysis. Because of the high heterogeneity among studies, data from 10 studies were pooled and submitted to TSA. A total of 852 teeth were evaluated for fracture of the posts in 27 independent comparison groups. The pooled effect of the residual studies revealed no significant difference between titanium and fiber posts (SMD = -0.12; 95% CI = -0.30, 0.06; p = 0.20). Results of the TSA revealed no conclusive evidence. CONCLUSIONS The results of the current evidence revealed no significant difference between fiber and titanium posts. The evidence is insufficient, and more standardized in vitro studies are required.

Abstract
AIM To fabricate and characterize nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) grafted and non-grafted glass fibre-based endodontic posts. METHODOLOGY Experimental glass fibre posts were fabricated using silanized nHA grafted (ex-HA) and non-grafted glass fibre (ex-P) reinforced resins. The structural analysis and morphological patterns were analysed with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. EverStick® glass fibre posts (eS) were used as a control group. The degree of conversion, flexural strength, and flexural modulus was investigated and the fractured structure was evaluated with a scanning electron microscope. Root canals were prepared in human extracted teeth restored with experimental and control posts. The push-out bond strength was evaluated with radicular dentine at days 7, 30, and 90, and the presence of voids at the interface were measured at day 1, 7, 30, and 90 with micro-computed tomography. The Shapiro-Wilk test and one-way ANOVA post-hoc Tukey's test were performed. The level of significance was set at 0.05. RESULTS The SEM and FTIR confirmed the presence of a silane-coupling agent on the glass fibres. The ex-HA post had a significantly lower degree of conversion compared to the ex-P post (p = .0008), but a significantly higher conversion than the eS post (p = .0014). The maximum flexural strength value was obtained with the ex-HA post with an insignificant difference (p = .366) compared to ex-P post and a significant difference (p = .029) compared to the eS post. The flexural modulus of ex-HA, ex-P, and eS posts were significantly different (p = .037). Similarly, the ex-HA post had a significantly higher push-out bond strength at days 7 and 30 (p = .037) compared to the ex-P and eS posts. The volume of voids had a nonlinear behaviour amongst the groups with no significant difference between the posts. CONCLUSION The fabrication of the experimental posts was successful and the ex-HA post had greater flexural strength and push-out bond strength compared to the ex-P post. The degree of conversion of the ex-HA post was lower than the ex-P and eS posts. The volume of voids of ex-HA and ex-P posts was lower than that of eS posts.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the influence of ferrule effect and mechanical fatigue aging on glass-fiber post push-out bond strength (PBS) to root-canal dentin at different root thirds of premolars. METHODS AND MATERIALS Thirty-two sound maxillary premolar teeth were collected, and randomly assigned to two experimental groups (n=16): 'Remaining Dentin Ferrule' (RDF) = coronal crown cut 2.0 mm above the cementoenamel junction (CEJ); 'Without Dentin Ferrule' (WDF) = coronal crown cut at the cemento-enamel junction. Teeth were endodontically treated, post spaces were prepared up to 10.0-mm depth from CEJ, and glass-fiber posts were cemented using a dual-cure self-adhesive composite cement. Standardized cores were built using a light-cure composite, upon which tooth cores were prepared using a 1.5-mm taper ogival-end diamond bur. Crowns were handmade using self-cure acrylic resin and cemented using the aforementioned composite cement. Half of the specimens were subjected to 1,200,000 cycles of mechanical fatigue in a chewing simulator (F = 'Fatigue'), while the other half were stored in distilled water at 37°C for 1 week (C = 'Control'). All specimens were horizontally sectioned into 1.0-mm thick slices prior to PBS test; the failure modes were assessed using stereomicroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Data were analyzed for each root third using two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Tukey HSD post-hoc test; frequency distribution was compared by Chi-square test (α=0.05) and post-hoc comparisons with Bonferroni. RESULTS The mean PBS in MPa (SD) were = RDF_F = 10.4 (2.9); WDF_F = 6.9 (1.7); RDF_C = 14.5 (2.7); WDF_C = 14.2 (2.9). Similar PBS were found for the root thirds. For all root thirds, significant differences were found for both the factors Dentin Ferrule and Fatigue, and their interaction (p<0.05). The lowest PBS was found for specimens without dentin ferrule subjected to chewing fatigue (p<0.001). Most failures occurred at the composite cement/dentin interface, followed by mixed and composite cement/glass-fiber post interfacial failures. There was a significant increase in mixed failures for the WDF_F group (p<0.001). CONCLUSION Absence of 2.0-mm remaining dentin ferrule in premolars resulted in a higher decrease of the glass-fiber posts' PBS to dentin after mechanical fatigue, irrespective of root third.

Abstract
This study aims to determine whether the design of resin posts reinforced with glass fiber (FRC) and Reporfost (Angelus, Londrina, PR, Brazil) significantly improves the fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth restored through this method.A batch of 30 maxillary monoradicular teeth (15 central incisors, 15 canines) were treated endodontically by step-back technique (apical enlargement 40-K file) sealed with Sealapex (Kerr Corporation, Orange, US) and gutta-percha by lateral condensation, cold. They were divided into two equal groups, prepared for cementing the FRC posts. The Exacto posts (Angelus, Londrina, PR, Brazil) in group 1 and the Reforpost posts (Angelus; Londrina; PR, Brazil) were cemented with dual cure resin cement Breeze Self-Adhesive Resin Cement (Pentron Clinical, Orange, US). Fracture resistance testing was performed on the crown-apical axial direction, using the Hounsfield / Tinius Olsen H1-KS, PA, USA mechanical testing apparatus. The behavior of each tooth-post assembly was recorded as a graph. The statistical analysis was done using one way ANOVA (α=0.05). The differences between the Exacto post group and the Reforpost post group are not statistically significant (p = 0.466). The maximum force recorded was 970 N and the minimum 186N. The mean force at which the fracture occurred was approximately 500N for both groups. The strain test showed that modifying the Reforpost post design did not improve the fracture resistance parameters of the tooth-post assembly through increasing the surface friction or maintaining adhesion to the walls of the root dentin.

Abstract
Aim of the Study We aimed to compare stress distribution in a tooth restored with fiber post and dentin post after applying the orthotropic properties using three-dimensional finite element analysis (3D-FEA). Materials and Methods Two 3D-FEA models were constructed. The material properties were assigned, and a load of 100 N was applied at 45° to the long axis of the model onto the lingual surface incisal to the cingulum. The FEA was done by applying orthotropic properties of dentin and fiber post. The maximum stresses produced in the tooth and post referred to as von Mises stress were recorded. The Ansys software was used which depicts the stress concentrations. Results Von Mises values showed that glass fiber post (331 MPa) and dentin post (338 MPa)-restored tooth models presented similar stress values. Conclusion Although both fiber post and dentin post presented similar von Mises stress values, the pattern of stress distribution is more favorable in dentin post. More favorable fracture could be expected in case of dentin post. Thus, the dentin post is a promising alternative post material for rehabilitating endodontically treated teeth. Clinical Significance Ascribing the orthotropic properties in a FEA study means that the computational simulation was similar to that of clinical scenario, and hence simulates the dynamic intraoral conditions, thereby giving the accurate results.

Abstract
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to compare the retention properties between fiberglass pins with chemically activated acrylic resin and metallic intraradicular retainers often used for the purpose of temporary prosthetic retention. Materials and Methods: Two mechanical tests, pushout and traction, were performed on specimens distributed in three groups (n = 10) for each test; two metal pins G1: Metalpin Ângelus and G2: Provisional Pivot Jon in addition to one fiberglass pin G3: Whitepost DC-E, FGM. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Tukey’s post hoc test was used at the level of significance α = 0.05. Results: The fiberglass pins (G3) showed higher values in the traction test than the metal pins (G1 and G2) with a statistically significant difference (P < 0.05); however, they performed similarly to the metal pin groups in the pushout test (P > 0.05). They also presented a lower occurrence of failure in the relining acrylic resin. Conclusion: The study pointed out the use of fiberglass pins as suitable alternatives for provisional intracanal metallic retainers.

Abstract
Purpose: This review article tries to answer this question: "What are the effects of laser surface treatment of fiber posts (FPs), compared with other surface roughening methods, on bond strength of cemented FPs?" Methods: Search was carried out in six electronic databases by focusing on defined key words. Related titles and abstracts, up to March 2019, were collected, read, and selected for quality assessments. A total of 2408 articles were included in the study at the initial stage of the searching phase. Results: Finally, seven studies were recognized to be reliable to be reviewed and meta data analysis in the study. All the studies were in vitro with a total of 340 samples. None of the Er:YAG (-0.27, 95% CI: -2.29 to 1.76; p = 0.79) and Er,Cr:YSGG (-0.04, 95% CI: -1.43 to 1.35; p = 0.95) treated samples showed any significant overall mean differences in final push-out bond strength (PBS) compared with the control groups. Conclusions: Laser pretreatment of FP surfaces might not be effective in providing high PBS. FP surface are susceptible to damage of high-level laser irradiation and might show decreased bond strength.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to use polyetheretherketone (PEEK) for the post material and evaluate the fracture load of six restoration patterns in teeth with flared root canals; composite resin core alone (Group R); glass fiber sleeve (Group S); PEEK post (Group P); glass fiber post (Group F); PEEK post in glass fiber sleeve (Group PS); glass fiber post in glass fiber sleeve (Group FS). In this study, cylindroid specimens were prepared and underwent three-point-bending test in a steady condition and after water immersion. In the loading test, the materials in clinical conditions using bovine teeth were evaluated. In the bending test, groups using glass fiber posts and sleeves decreased in strength after water immersion. In the loading test, Groups F, FS and PS showed higher fracture load than other groups. This study showed PEEK posts and glass fiber sleeves are recommended in the case of flared root canals.

Abstract
The dimensional stability of core buildup materials plays an important role in clinical application. In this study, hygroscopic dimensional changes of four commercial core buildup materials were investigated in deionized water and artificial saliva for up to 150 days. Specimens were made within a customized cylindrical mold. The initial mass and the apparent mass in liquids were measured. All the tested materials showed hygroscopic expansion after a 150-days immersion time. Hygroscopic expansion of these four materials can partly compensate for the polymerization shrinkage. SDR showed the lowest hygroscopic expansion of the four tested materials when immersed in deionized water and artificial saliva. PC showed the highest hygroscopic expansion in deionized water, while LC showed the highest hygroscopic expansion in artificial saliva. In the case of different immersion solvents, osmotic pressure should be considered. For hygroscopic dimensional changes, the hydrophilicity of monomers and changes of intermolecular forces may be crucial factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Endodontically treated teeth may require posts for retaining the core and replacing the coronal structures that have been lost. The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the push-out bond strength between different types of post cemented with different types of luting cement at different types of root level. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this in-vitro study, a total of 48 single-rooted permanent human teeth were decoronated, and the roots were treated endodontically. Following post space preparation, the sample was divided into four groups (n= 12 each) based on the types of post and cement. Two different types of post [GC everStick®POST (ES) and Parapost® Fiber LuxTM (PF)], and two different types of cement [G-CEMTM (G), and RelyXTM Unicem (R)] were used according to the manufacturer's instructions. All roots were sectioned at the coronal and middle thirds with a thickness of 3±0.1mm. The Push-out bond strength (PBS) test was performed using a universal testing machine at a cross-head speed of 0.5mm/ min. The bond strength values were recorded, and the data were analyzed using the SPSS program. Apart from descriptive statistics, three-way ANOVA was used for the interaction of the independent variables (post, cement, and root level). For differences between the groups, the Mann-Whitney U test was used. A P-value of less than 0.05 was considered significant for all analyses. RESULTS Push-out bond strength of samples at the middle level (11.38±10.31 MPa), with PF posts (11.18±9.98 MPa), and of those luted with RelyXTM Unicem cement (13.26±8.73 MPa) was higher than that of their counterparts. The PBS means of RelyXTM Unicem cement at both root levels were much higher than PBS means of G-CEMTM cement. Three-way ANOVA test revealed a significant effect for each variable with a higher effect of cement (Sum of Squares= 1310.690; P< 0.001). No significant difference (P= 0.153) was found between the coronal and middle parts and between ES and PF posts (P= 0.058). However, a highly significant difference (P< 0.001) was found between RelyXTM Unicem and G-CEMTM cements. CONCLUSION The type of cement had a significant effect on push-out bond strength with RelyXTM Unicem which had higher values than G-CEMTM. However, the type of post and root level had no significant effect on PBS, although Parapost® Fiber LuxTM and middle root level had higher values than their counterparts.

Effect of Fiber Posts on Stress Distribution of Endodontically Treated Upper Premolars: Finite Element Analysis. NANOMATERIALS 2020; 10:nano10091708. [PMID: 32872519 PMCID: PMC7559636 DOI: 10.3390/nano10091708] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2020] [Revised: 08/20/2020] [Accepted: 08/27/2020] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
By means of a finite element method (FEM), the present study evaluated the effect of fiber post (FP) placement on the stress distribution occurring in endodontically treated upper first premolars (UFPs) with mesial–occlusal–distal (MOD) nanohybrid composite restorations under subcritical static load. FEM models were created to simulate four different clinical situations involving endodontically treated UFPs with MOD cavities restored with one of the following: composite resin; composite and one FP in the palatal root; composite and one FP in the buccal root; or composite and two FPs. As control, the model of an intact UFP was included. A simulated load of 150 N was applied. Stress distribution was observed on each model surface, on the mid buccal–palatal plane, and on two horizontal planes (at cervical and root-furcation levels); the maximum Von Mises stress values were calculated. All analyses were replicated three times, using the mechanical parameters from three different nanohybrid resin composite restorative materials. In the presence of FPs, the maximum stress values recorded on dentin (in cervical and root-furcation areas) appeared slightly reduced, compared to the endodontically treated tooth restored with no post; in the same areas, the overall Von Mises maps revealed more favorable stress distributions. FPs in maxillary premolars with MOD cavities can lead to a positive redistribution of potentially dangerous stress concentrations away from the cervical and the root-furcation dentin.

Abstract
Perio-overdenture design helps to reduce periodontal diseases and secondary caries on abutment teeth. Composite copings can be cemented adhesively to the abutment teeth with different techniques. In this study, direct/indirect resin composite copings for perio-overdentures, luted using different adhesive cementation modalities were compared. Human teeth (N = 40) were prepared to receive spherical attachment copings and randomly divided into four groups: (1) resin-composite copings bonded directly (DC), (2) composite copings made indirectly, luted with dual-polymerized resin cement (ICV), (3) composite copings made indirectly, bonded with resin composite (ICT), (4) composite copings made indirectly, bonded with resin composite after the immediate dentin sealing method (IDS). Specimens were tested for tensile failure and one-way ANOVA (alpha = 0.05) was performed and the two-parameter Weibull modulus, scale (m) and shape (0) were calculated. Mean tensile load (N) was significantly higher for Group IDS (238 ± 81) than for the other groups (144 ± 53–184 ± 46) (p < 0.05). Group IDS (0.54 ± 0.25 mm) showed significantly higher deformation (mm) than other groups (0.2 ± 0.1–0.32 ± 0.15) (p < 0.05). Weibull distribution presented lower shape (0) for DC (3.33) compared to other groups (3.57–4.99). Cohesive coping failures were more frequent in Group IDS (60%) and mixed failures in other groups (40–60%). In conclusion, IDS copings could be preferred over other fabrication and adhesion modalities.

Abstract
Background:
Extensive restorative treatments of anterior primary teeth are challenging in pediatric dentistry.
Objective:
This study aimed to compare the fracture resistance of three post types for restoring the anterior primary teeth.
Methods:
This in-vitro study was carried out on 90 extracted maxillary anterior primary teeth with intact roots. They were randomly allocated into six groups to be restored with conventional composite resin post, X-tra fill composite resin post, Tetric N Ceram composite resin post, prefabricated glass fiber post with conventional composite build-up, prefabricated glass fiber post with X-tra fill composite build-up, and prefabricated glass fiber post with Tetric N Ceram composite build up. The samples were polished and placed in acrylic resin blocks with 1 mm of part of cervical root being out, thermocycled (×5000) and tested for fracture resistance. Intra-class correlation test, Kruskal-Wallis test and one-way ANOVA were used for statistical analyses (α=0.05).
Results:
The mean fracture resistance was significantly different among the six groups. It was the highest in prefabricated glass fiber post with conventional composite build-up (418.64 N), prefabricated glass fiber post with X-tra fill composite build-up (403.63 N) and prefabricated glass fiber post with Tetric N Ceram composite build up (361.63 N); and the lowest in Tetric N Ceram group (280.65 N). The groups were significantly different concerning the fracture strength and fracture state.
Conclusion:
Since the anterior teeth restored with prefabricated glass fiber posts were far more fracture resistant, and prefabricated glass fiber posts can be promisingly used for the restoration of anterior primary teeth.

Abstract
Objective: The restoration of destroyed maxillary primary incisors is difficult because of the insufficient amount of coronal structure. This pilot study aimed to compare the efficacy of composite posts technique and glass fiber posts technique in restoring destroyed primary incisors. Materials and Methods: Thirty‐six destroyed maxillary primary incisors in 11 children with early childhood caries were randomly assigned after endodontic treatment into two groups: glass fiber posts (n = 18) and composite resin posts (n = 18). Blinded clinical evaluation was made at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months and Blinded radiographic evaluation was made at 6 and 12 months. The evaluation was according to the FDI criteria. Data were analyzed with Fisher's exact test (α = .05). Result: After 12 months post‐treatment, the success rates were 88.2% in glass fiber posts group and 70.6% in composite resin posts group. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups according to the evaluation criteria (p‐value >.05). Conclusion: Glass fiber posts technique and Composite posts technique may be used in the restoration of destroyed primary incisors.

Abstract
Background:
There is an increased interest in investigating and use of prefabricated fiber-reinforced posts by scientists and clinicians in the restoration of endodontically treated teeth.
Objective:
The objective of this narrative review was to summarize the composition of contemporary prefabricated fiber-reinforced posts and elucidate its effect on the different properties of these posts.
Methods:
PubMed/Medline, Scopus, and Google Scholar were searched from January 1990 to December 2019 for English Language articles describing the composition and properties of prefabricated fiber-reinforced posts. First, the search strategy was established for Medline / PubMed using the following terms ((Fiber post[All Fields] OR (fiber reinforced post[All Fields] AND composition[All Fields] AND (“matrix”[MeSH Terms] OR (“fiber”[All Fields] AND “properties”[All Fields] AND “epoxy”[All Fields]) OR “dimethacrylate”[All Fields]) AND NOT (CAD CAM[All Fields])). The search strategy was then adapted for Scopus and Google Scholar databases to identify eligible studies.
Results:
The current state of the art of prefabricated fiber-reinforced posts revealed a myriad of products with different formulations which are reflected on the mechanical and handling characteristics of the different posts available in the market. More recent research and development efforts attempted to address issues related to the improved transmission of polymerization light through the post to the most apical end of the restoration inside the root canal. Others focused on the development of new matrix materials for fiber-reinforced posts.
Conclusion:
A review of the literature revealed that currently available prefabricated fiber-reinforced posts consist of a heterogeneous group of materials which can have a significant effect on the behavior of posts. Understanding different formulations will help clinicians in scrutinizing the vast literature available on prefabricated fiber-reinforced posts. This, in turn, will help them make an informed decision when selecting materials for the restoration of endodontically treated teeth.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is currently no consensus on the optimal post system to provide effective long-term results. We used an engineering approach to investigate the mechanical properties of a sandwich hollow carbon fiber post in synergy with a new bonding technique. METHODS We studied two systems - a sandwich fiber hollow post (Techole®, Isasan, Como, Italy) composed of carbon fiber incorporated in a Dpp-MOR resin mix and a traditional non-hollow post (Tech 2000®, Isasan, Como, Italy). A bi-component composite (Clearfil Core®, Kuraray, New York, NY, USA) (2.2 gcm3, 12.3 GPa) and a dual cure composite with lower density and modulus of elasticity (Clearfil DC Core®, Kuraray, New York, NY, USA) (2.0 gcm3, 10.0 GPa) were also used into hollow posts. Results from three-point bending test (N.=81), compression test (N.=78) and cut test (N.=81) were achieved. RESULTS In the three-point bending test there were significant differences in flexibility/bending when sandwich fiber hollow posts were filled with composite of different modulus of elasticity. Hollow sandwich posts showed also significant (P=0.000) better resistance to compression and cutting than solid posts, independently of the type of composite. Moreover, hollow posts filled plus composite with a modulus of elasticity of 12.3 GPa showed significant (P=0.000) improved resistance parameters rather than hollow posts filled with a composite of 10.0 GPa. CONCLUSIONS The study confirms the favorable mechanical properties of the hollow sandwich fiber post system (Techole®) and the synergistic efficacy when used in combination with the composite Clearfil DC Core® (10.0 GPa) and, especially, Clearfil Core® (12.3 GPa).

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different glass fiber posts (GFPs) diameters on the push-out bond strength to dentin. Forty unirradicular human teeth were endodontically treated and used for cementation of GFPs (White Post DC, FGM) with different diameters (n=10): P1 - ø 1.6 mm coronal x 0.85 mm apical; P2 - ø 1.8 mm coronal x 1.05 mm apical; P5 - ø 1.4 mm coronal x 0.65 mm apical; and PC - customized post number 0.5 with composite resin (Tetric Ceram A2, Ivoclair Vivadent). All GFPs were cemented into the root canal using a dual-curing luting composite (Variolink II, Ivoclar Vivadent). One slice (1.7 mm) of each root third of cemented GFP (cervical, middle, and apical) was submitted to push-out testing. Failure modes of all specimens were classified as: adhesive failure between resin cement and post; adhesive failure between dentin and resin cement; cohesive failure within resin cement, post or dentin; and mixed failure. The data were analyzed with two-way ANOVA and Tukey's test (a=0.05). The highest bond strength values were presented for the P2 and PC groups. There was no statistically significant difference between the GFP thirds in each group. The groups P2, P5, and PC showed predominantly adhesive failure. For P1, the most prevalent type of failure was adhesive between resin cement and post. It may be concluded that a glass fiber post that is well adapted to the root canal presents higher bond strength values, regardless of GFP third.
